Rees is a realist

- By GRAHAM THOMAS

LOUIS REES-ZAMMIT admitted Wales’ 20-13 victory over Argentina in Cardiff is only the start.

The flying wing came through his emergency duty as a full-back with distinctio­n, thanks to lessons on a laptop with Leigh Halfpenny.

But it was the grit Rees-Zammit and his team-mates showed in defiant defence that was crucial after their 55-23 defeat to New Zealand.

The Gloucester star said: “Our physicalit­y just wasn’t good enough against New Zealand and we had to put that right.”
