Wales attack coach Stephen Jones rejects the suggestion his players have to overcome a significant mental barrier when they face the Springboks this weekend.
The question was put to the former fly-half in light of the Welsh regions’ tribulations in South Africa during the URC last season. Out of the eight games played by Welsh teams on South African soil, all of them ended in defeat, with abject performances resulting in an aggregate score of 351-106.
The ugly scoreline, though, lacks the context that Welsh internationals were absent for the majority of those games. Jones was quick to point out that the national side has, in recent years, fared much better.
