Steve Tandy risks losing the Welsh public if he doesn’t change his message. The Welsh rugby team's recent performances have been a rollercoaster, with a mix of heart-warming victories and disappointing defeats. While the players' effort and bravery are commendable, the team's messaging and narrative have become a point of contention. The author argues that Tandy's obsession with a particular message risks undermining the progress made in the past year. The Six Nations tournament marked a turning point, with a renewed sense of pride and effort. However, the team's recent performances, particularly against South Africa, have raised questions about their ability to deliver on the pitch. The author suggests that Tandy needs to be more transparent and honest with the public, challenging the players and admitting when they need to improve. The team's messaging should be more focused on performance and results, rather than a 'journey' where results don't matter. The author concludes that the Welsh public needs genuine hope, belief, excitement, and expectation to get behind the team, and that Tandy must play a crucial role in delivering this.
