Wales wing Josh Adams believes that World Cup co-captains Jac Morgan and Dewi Lake will be “massive figureheads” during the build-up to Australia 2027 games
The dust has yet to on Wales’ World Cup campaign in France, which was ended by quarter-final opponents Argentina games
And while the immediate reaction is one of major disappointment that Wales could not reach a third semi-final in the last four tournaments, a new generation of talent is emerging games
Morgan, 23, and 24-year-old Lake are at the forefront, having shone at their first World Cup through leadership and performances games
“We have two young captains in Dewi and Jac, and they have led us incredibly well and are a huge voice for us,” Adams said games
“I have enjoyed playing under them and for those two especially, there are massive careers ahead for them games
“They will no doubt be in the next four-year (World Cup) cycle and they will be massive figureheads for a lot of young lads in this team moving forward games
“I am sure they will drive the standards up even higher games
”Lake, meanwhile, has vowed that crestfallen Wales will kick on following the Argentina loss, which came after an unbeaten pool phase that delivered victories over Australia, Fiji, Georgia and Portugal games
Wales face the Barbarians in Cardiff on November 4, then play opening Six Nations opponents Scotland three months later games
“Emotions go up and down, but it is tough to take,” Lake said games
A loss in a World Cup quarter-final with tears streaming down your face, that is a feeling you never want againDewi Lake“We were not given a lot of hope from people coming into this tournament games
A lot of people said we were not going to get out of the group games
“We will learn a lot from this and a lot of boys are at their first World Cup games
“You don’t learn a lot from winning constantly games
Learning comes from losing games and seeing where you can get games better and where you went wrong games
These are the type of games that build character games
“A loss in a World Cup quarter-final with tears streaming down your face, that is a feeling you never want again games
We will kick on from here games
”One player no longer part of Wales’ plans is fly-half Dan Biggar, who has retired from Test rugby after winning 112 caps and scoring more than 600 points games
Whether any of his colleagues follow him into international retirement remains to be seen, but Toulon star Biggar’s 15-year impact on Wales has proved significant games
Lake added: “Any time you lose a figure like that it is a tough loss games
He has given his time in Welsh rugby, he is a (caps) centurion, a Lions tourist, a leader, he has been unbelievable in a Lions and Wales jersey games
“What he has given to Wales with the sacrifices, he has taken hits like no other 10 I have seen in world rugby and a lot of people would agree with that games
“In terms of his leadership and speaking after games, we will miss him and I think he will miss us as well games
“He has been an unbelievable ambassador for Welsh rugby and has inspired a lot of people old and young games

Gabriel Jesus continued his love affair with the Champions League with a fine goal and assist as he led Arsenal to victory over Sevilla games
The Brazil forward may not boast the most prolific strike record but he has now scored an impressive 23 goals in 41 appearances in Europe’s elite club competition and he was the difference here as the Gunners won 2-1 games
A piece of magic from Jesus set up compatriot Gabriel Martinelli to open the scoring on the stroke of half-time before he doubled the lead with a fine, curling finish of his own – although he later limped off having moments earlier held his hamstring games
A thunderous Nemanja Gudelj header reduced the arrears on the hour but Mikel Arteta’s side saw out the closing stages to secure victory, moving top of Group B in the process games
Martinelli should have put Arsenal ahead inside eight minutes after being played through on goal by Jesus, only to shoot straight at the advancing Orjan Nyland games
Moments later Lucas Ocampos stabbed an effort just wide at the other end as both sides looked to strike early in an atmospheric Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium games
David Raya’s inclusion in the Arsenal goal at the continued expense of Aaron Ramsdale was again a talking point before the game and the Spaniard gifted possession to Sevilla at the midway point of the first half but the home side failed to take advantage games
Neither team created anything else of note until stoppage time when, firstly, Sevilla easily cut through the Arsenal defence but Youssef En-Nesyri failed to hit the target as he dragged a shot wide games
Arsenal then took the lead, having escaped another Sevilla attack they broke at pace and a fine touch and perfectly-weighted pass from Jesus set Martinelli in behind games
This time the Brazilian made no mistake, calmly rounding Nyland before rolling the ball into an empty net games

Jesus, though, was in confident mood and extended the advantage with a fine solo goal, moving in off the left to curl a finish past Nyland games
Sevilla responded well and got themselves back into the contest when Gudelj powered a header past Raya from Ivan Rakitic’s corner games
The Europa League holders came within inches of equalising soon after, as substitute Mariano Diaz’s strike was tipped onto the crossbar by Raya games
Jesus did not have chance to savour a memorable performance as he gingerly hobbled off to be replaced by Eddie Nketiah with 10 minutes left on the clock games
Arsenal, though, were able to navigate through the difficult closing stages, surviving a late onslaught to secure victory ahead of the return game at the Emirates Stadium in a fortnight’s time, where another three points will leave Arteta’s side sitting pretty games
