Sam Warburton is eager to see Wales's record against the top Southern Hemisphere nations improve.

Sam Warburton has said that he has had enough of losing to sides from the Southern Hemisphere.

Wales have just one win in 20 games against Australia, New Zealand and South Africa since Warren Gatland's appointment in 2007.

The national captain told Sky Sports News: "It has got to the stage now where enough is enough.

"I said to the players before the New Zealand game that I've only been involved [with Wales] for three or four years and it is already getting on my nerves, this whole southern hemisphere scalp.

"I don't know how the likes of Ryan [Jones] and Mike [Phillips] - players who have been around the team 10 years or so - must feel. I definitely feel like that, and I'm sure the rest of the squad feel the same way."

Wales face Australia at the Millennium Stadium tomorrow.
