Wales captain Dewi Lake faces intense scrutiny after yellow cards in the England defeat, but teammate Dafydd Jenkins stands firmly behind him. Jenkins, who captained Wales during their 2024 Six Nations whitewash, described Lake's handling of the pressure as 'awesome' and 'someone I definitely look up to'.

The 23-year-old Jenkins, now Exeter Chiefs captain, emphasizes his role is to support Lake through actions, not words, highlighting the leadership group's collective responsibility. This backing comes amid Wales' ongoing struggles with discipline and set-piece errors that plagued their 50-3 loss to France, where they conceded easy gain-line opportunities to a Grand Slam-chasing side.
