Berliner Tageblatt - Roberts moves to wing for winless Wales against England in Six Nations

Roberts will be out wide in Saturday's match in Cardiff after Tom Rogers suffered a fractured thumb during the early stages of Wales' 35-29 defeat by Scotland at Murrayfield last weekend.

With both Rogers, fellow wing Josh Adams and back three-star Liam Williams all injured, interim Wales head coach Matt Sherratt opted not to call anyone else into his squad for the England game.

Sherratt has made one other change to the team that kicked-off against Scotland, with Aaron Wainwright selected at blindside flanker.

Wainwright's inclusion means Wales captain Jac Morgan switches to his more familiar openside role and Leicester flanker Tommy Reffell drops to the replacements' bench.

Roberts impressed on the wing after coming on for Rogers in Edinburgh to win his fourth cap.

Wales go into Saturday's match bidding to avoid a 17th successive Test defeat and 11th Six Nations loss on the bounce.

England, by contrast, will arrive at the Principality Stadium as outside title contenders, although a win for France against Scotland will likely secure the trophy for Les Bleus.

Saturday's match will also mark the end of Cardiff boss Sherratt's three-game stint as caretaker Wales boss after the Englishman was parachuted in mid-tournament after the end of Warren Gatland's unsuccessful second spell in charge.

Wales are on the worst international losing streak in their history, having not won a Test since defeating Georgia at the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France.
