What does the Autumn have in store for Welsh Rugby?

Wales anthem
The reigning World Champions, a summer tour reunion, and recently-crowned Pacific Nations Cup Champions await Wales in November.

For Warren Gatland's team, the Autumn nations Series is a crucial opportunity to end a Test match losing streak that stretches back more than a year. Fans will be able to capture every minute of the action, with every game shown live on TNT Sports.

Wales v Fiji, Sunday 10th November (13:40)

Fiji and Wales have had some thrilling encounters over the years, with Wales stealing the spoils at the 2022 Autumn Nations Series with a 38-26 victory over the flying Fijians. Wales open this year’s campaign at the lowest World Rugby ranking in their history, while Fiji are flying high after being crowned Pacific Nations Cup Champions when they beat Japan 41-17 back in September. The visitors have a knack for disruption, with former Wales head coach Gareth Jenkins losing his role at the top after a shock exit to Fiji at the 2007 Rugby World Cup. This fixture can be precarious, then, but should Wales win it could be the game that sparks the revival of Gatland’s men and gets the Welsh Dragon roaring once more.

Wales v Australia, Sunday 17th November (16:10)

Wales and Australia are gearing up for a clash that promises to be filled with tension and high stakes, as both sides find themselves navigating through a period of transition and inconsistency. Who will rise to the occasion? Their last Autumn Nations Series encounter in 2022 was a heart-stopping thriller, with Australia snatching a 39-34 victory in the dying moments thanks to a 78th-minute try. But this summer, Australia had the upper hand again, sweeping Wales aside 2-0 in their home series and taking the bragging rights.

Under Joe Schmidt's guidance, the Wallabies have shown clear signs of progress, but questions remain about their ability to maintain consistency after mixed performances in The Rugby Championship. This latest meeting could be a defining chapter in their fierce rivalry with history on the line and recent battles still fresh.

Wales v South Africa, Saturday 23rd November (17:40)

The ultimate challenge awaits Wales as they prepare to face their fiercest opponents yet: reigning back-to-back World Cup champions, the formidable Springboks. Their rivalry ignited in 2022 with unforgettable clashes, including Wales' historic first-ever victory on South African soil. Yet, the Springboks had the last laugh in Cardiff, edging out a heart-stopping 23-18 thriller at Principality Stadium. While South Africa may enter as favourites, the Welsh will have a passionate home crowd behind them, setting the stage for a clash that promises to keep fans on the edge of their seats.
