🚨 Big changes are needed for Wales Rugby! 🚨 After a tough match against England where we conceded 48 points, our team needs a shake-up before facing France in the Six Nations. Here’s a peek at the revamped squad that could bring us back to winning ways:
🏉 **Backs**: Ellis Mee takes the 15 shirt, with Louis Rees-Zammit ready to show his speed on the wing. Owen Watkin and Joe Hawkins hold down the midfield with their solid defence and attacking prowess. Mason Grady’s explosive potential will be key, and Sam Costelow is set to lead from fly-half with his recent stellar form for the Scarlets. Tomos Williams is the go-to scrum-half who’ll need a strong platform from the forwards.
💪 **Forwards**: Olly Cracknell is essential as we need more ball carriers, alongside the dependable Aaron Wainwright shifted to the six spot for better balance. Dafydd Jenkins and Adam Beard must step up in the second row, while Tomas Francis anchors the scrum at tighthead. Dewi Lake, despite a rough game last week, stays as captain, tasked with rallying the pack and getting the lineout functioning again. Rhys Carré’s carrying ability earns him the loosehead position.
🔄 **Bench Boost**: Feel the impact with the likes of Nicky Smith and Archie Griffin maintaining the scrum’s edge. Ryan Elias, Freddie Thomas, and James Botham provide the size and physicality off the bench. Kieran Hardy’s quick play and Dan Edwards’ versatility keep us agile in strategy, while Louie Hennessey offers some much-needed creative flair at centre.
🏆 France won’t be an easy task, but these changes could make the difference! Let’s support the boys and hope for a turnaround this Sunday. Cymru am byth! 🏴 #WalesRugby #SixNations #BringOnFrance
