🏉 Exciting times ahead for Welsh rugby fans! Next week, Steve Tandy is set to announce his Wales squad for the summer tests, and we could see some fresh faces. With upcoming matches against the Barbarians, Fiji, Argentina, and South Africa, we’re eagerly anticipating an extended squad selection. 🏆
Here’s a sneak peek at potential squad members:
🔵 **Props & Hookers**: Expect to see familiar names like Rhys Carre and Nicky Smith. But don’t count out new talent like Rhys Barratt making a mark. In the hooker position, Elliot Dee might get a call-up alongside promising players like Liam Belcher.
🏉 **Second-row & Back-row**: Watch for a mix of old and new. Ben Carter may have the edge, but keep an eye on Rhys Davies. In the back-row, Jac Morgan will likely lead, with other strong contenders like James Botham and Aaron Wainwright in the mix.
⏱️ **Scrum-halves & Fly-halves**: The usual scrum-halves are likely to make the cut, but there’s a bit of a shake-up at fly-half—especially with injuries to Sam Costelow and Jarrod Evans. Dan Edwards could be the key playmaker here.
🏃♂️ **Centres & Back-three**: With Joe Hawkins possibly shifting to fly-half, there’s room for powerful centre pairings, perhaps with Eddie James taking a central role. In the back-three, could we see a new face at full-back? Louis Rees-Zammit has been exciting, but players like Jacob Beetham might get a shot.
Stay tuned! This announcement could bring some surprises and set the tone for what promises to be a thrilling series of matches. Who are you excited to see on the pitch? 🤔 Let’s get the conversation going! ⚡ Keep your eyes peeled for updates!
