SHERRATT: LET'S BUILD ON THIS WIN
Western Mail
|July 14, 2025
MATT Sherratt hopes Wales' victory over Japan can “be the start of something” after they snapped an 18-match losing Test run.
A hard-fought performance saw Kieran Hardy score two tries along with efforts from Josh Adams and Dan Edwards as Wales held off a second-half Japan comeback to clinch the win at the Noevir Stadium.
It earned Wales their first Test success since beating Georgia at the 2023 World Cup.
Sherratt took over as interim head coach following the departure of Warren Gatland during the Six Nations in February and he hopes this win can help his successor start with a clean slate.
"A very passionate group of players and staff. There's some real talent as well," Sherratt said.
"Today is the end of a long season, but for Welsh rugby it's got to be the start of something.
