π Exciting news for Welsh rugby fans! Cardiff’s dynamic prop, Sam Wainwright, is back on the international stage, being called up for the Six Nations squad. After a standout year in 2022, which included a historic victory in South Africa, Wainwright makes his return to fill the gap left by Keiron Assiratti, who’s sidelined with a calf injury. π€

Wainwright has been a powerhouse for Cardiff this season with seven impressive performances. At 27, he brings youthful energy and valuable experience to the squad. Head coach Steve Tandy expressed his excitement, saying, “Itβs a great opportunity for Sam, and we’re thrilled for him.” π

Joining Wainwright are seasoned pros Archie Griffin and Tomas Francis. Francis, who recently signed with Sale Sharks, hasn’t donned the Welsh jersey since the 2023 World Cup but is now set for a thrilling comeback. With his experience and the budding talent of young Griffin, the competition for the number three jersey is heating up! π₯

Keep an eye out for epic clashes as Wales takes on the Six Nations with renewed vigour and a mix of fresh and seasoned talent. Go Wales! π΄
