🏉 Big weekend ahead for Welsh rugby! 🏉
All eyes are on Cardiff, Dragons, Ospreys, and Scarlets as they gear up for European clashes. Here’s the lowdown:
**Ospreys** face Connacht in their EPCR Challenge Cup opener with Sam Parry and Jack Walsh leading as co-captains. Notably, Tom Botha hits his 150th club appearance milestone. Ross Moriarty anchors the back row, while Reuben Morgan-Williams and Dan Edwards control the half-back duties.
**Dragons RFC** are welcoming back Welsh stars Ben Carter and Rio Dyer against USA Perpignan. With eight changes, coach Filo Tiatia is injecting fresh energy after their recent league setback. Angus O’Brien moves to fly-half, and Rodrigo Martinez joins a revamped front row.
**Cardiff Rugby** are switching things up with nine changes for their game against Stade Francais in Paris. Featuring three debutants, the squad is brimming with young talent. Iwan Stephens makes a comeback from injury, and Alun Lawrence captains from No. 8 as Mason Grady celebrates his 50th appearance.
**Scarlets** make their Investec Champions Cup return against Bristol Bears. Fresh from a 23-0 win over Glasgow Warriors, they’re bringing star power with internationals like Max Douglas and Jake Ball ready for action. It’s a high-stakes re-entry into Europe’s top-tier rugby after a four-year break.
From Ospreys’ milestones to Scarlets’ high-stakes return, Welsh rugby fans have plenty to cheer for this weekend! 🎉✨
