Six Nations 2022: Charting the rise of new Wales cap Jac Morgan

New Wales cap Jac Morgan will continue Wales' open-side flanker conveyor belt of recent times when he runs out against Scotland for his international debut.

Wales head coach Wayne Pivac is currently without British and Irish Lions back rowers Justin Tipuric, Josh Navidi, Taulupe Faletau and Dan Lydiate.

But the production line of magnificent sevens continues, this time in a small part of the Swansea Valley, when Morgan becomes the 1,177th Welsh men's international this weekend.

He will join his fellow 22-year-old Taine Basham in the back row alongside Ross Moriarty in Cardiff.

BBC Sport Wales charts the rise of Wales' newest foraging flanker.

Hailing from Brynamman, Morgan is a fluent Welsh speaker who went to Ysgol Dyffryn Aman in Ammanford.

At the age of six, Morgan began his career at Cwmtwrch RFC, where he played for around 10 years.

Keith Roberts, known as «Bertie», coached the rising Ospreys star from the age of eight.

«You could tell there was something special, even from that early age,» said Roberts.

«He is the best reader of the game I have coached and is very level headed. When he came here, he was conscious of his height, but we told him he would grow.

»Now he is six foot and reached where he wanted to be."

Roberts was already planning to be at Principality Stadium this weekend, but that did not stop Morgan offering his old coach a ticket.

«I am a very emotional guy and I don't have any more tears left,» said Roberts.

«It is a proud moment for us as a club and his lovely family as well.

»I am going to the game and it will be an emotional day, especially the build-up and the anthem.

«The Cwmtwrch clubhouse will also be packed and it will be a rush to get back here afterwards.»
