Exciting times for Wales rugby fans! Angus O’Brien, the dynamic Dragons co-captain, is on the radar for a potential Wales call-up. Despite missing out during the Six Nations, this 31-year-old is showing form that’s hard to ignore, especially with the Dragons eyeing a European final!
O’Brien’s kicking capabilities have caught many eyes, with former teammate Ashton Hewitt singing his praises. Hewitt believes that Angus’s strategic kicking could be the answer for Wales, helping them escape tight spots during play. “He knows how to pin the opposition back on their try line, exactly what Wales needs,” says Hewitt.
Not just a kicking wonder, O’Brien also delivers when it comes to attack. Although Louis Rees-Zammit has been dazzling at 15, Angus brings his own flair with impressive line breaks and an ingenious attacking eye that could boost Wales’s playmaking. Plus, his dual role as a 10 adds versatility, offering attacking threats wide of the 12/13 combination Wales has been experimenting with.
This weekend, O’Brien will be crucial alongside Ben Carter and Aaron Wainwright as the Dragons face Montpellier in a vital semi-final. Their leadership and tactical prowess on the pitch have been instrumental for the team’s success this season.
Don’t miss any of the live action as this promising talent looks to help the Dragons make history. Tune in and see if O’Brien can deliver yet another standout performance! 🏉✨
