🏉 Rugby Round-Up: Exciting Times for Welsh Rugby Fans! 🏉
Big news in the rugby world as 2025 wraps up! Ospreys’ wing wizard, Keelan Giles, has his sights set on making waves in the Six Nations. After finally debuting for Wales against Japan, Giles is aiming to make that international dream a regular gig. He’s determined to shine in the festive derbies and secure a spot in Steve Tandy’s squad. Despite challenges, he’s all about focusing on delivering top-notch performances. He’s totally committed to the Ospreys—the club that feels like home.
Switching gears, former Welsh hero Stephen Jones is making his mark at Newcastle Red Bulls. After moving from Super Rugby, he’s been a game-changer, especially in enhancing Brett Connon’s skills as an outside half. Newcastle’s head coach, Alan Dickens, is all praises for Jones, recognising his world-class calibre and the positive shifts he’s brought in coaching strategies. Fingers crossed for Newcastle as they battle Gloucester, aiming to break that 399-day Premiership win drought!
On the injury front, Wales prop Gareth Thomas is racing against time to be fit for the Six Nations. A calf injury has kept him on the sidelines, and he’s working hard to bounce back. But with Nicky Smith and Rhys CarrĂ© ahead, he knows every moment counts! Ospreys coach Mark Jones is hopeful for a late January return, but it’s all about hitting those recovery markers.
Stay tuned for more rugby buzz and get ready to cheer on our boys! 🏆👏
