🏉 Big news in Welsh rugby! Rhys Carre, the powerhouse prop who last wore the Welsh jersey in 2023, is back in the national squad thanks to Steve Tandy. Carre, known for his incredible strength and speed, was released from Warren Gatland’s World Cup training camp for not meeting performance targets. This controversial move led to a lot of chatter amongst fans who felt the decision was harsh.
Former teammates Ellis Jenkins and Jonathan Davies recently delved into Carre’s dynamic with Gatland, offering some fascinating insights. They painted Carre as a “freak athlete” with phenomenal physical abilities, comparing him to Australia’s Will Skelton. Yet, it seems his past attitude and clash of personalities with Gatland might have caused some friction, especially during fitness challenges.
Jenkins highlighted Carre’s potential as a game-changing player, stating how tough it was for opponents to tackle him when he’s in top form. Meanwhile, Davies reminisced about offering to help Carre with his fitness and joked about the idea of Carre moving in with him to shed some weight, even humorously negotiating a percentage of Carre’s wages!
The former Cardiff player’s return is a second chance to prove his worth against tough teams like Argentina, Japan, and New Zealand. Who’s ready to see Carre storm the pitch once more? 🌟
Let’s get behind Rhys Carre as he gears up to shine on the international stage again! 💪 #WelshRugby #RhysCarre #RugbyComeback #TeamWales 🏴☠️
