🌟 Exciting Times for Welsh Rugby! 🌟
With Steve Tandy stepping up as the new head coach of Wales, all eyes are on how he’ll strengthen the team’s depth. While Wales might not have the same pool of players as bigger rugby nations like England or France, Tandy’s got his sights set on some dual-qualified stars who could add firepower to the squad.
Here are a few names that might shape the future of Welsh rugby:
1. **Kane James**: A powerful back-rower from Exeter Chiefs, born in Haverfordwest. A star in the making, eligible for Wales, England, and New Zealand. Tandy’s challenge is to get him to wear Wales red!
2. **Tahlor Cahill**: From New Zealand’s mighty Crusaders, a multi-talented forward with Welsh heritage. If he’s game for a move north, Wales could really benefit.
3. **Riley Higgins**: This explosive centre from the Hurricanes is making waves in NZ. Higgins has a knack for breaking lines and is one to watch if he chooses Wales through his family ties.
4. **Jonny Green**: Standing tall at 6ft 7in, this second-row is already part of Wales U20s but plays club rugby for Harlequins. A giant on the field with a choice between nations!
Also coming up are Bristol Bears’ Welsh contenders, featuring Jack Bates on the wing, the versatile centre James Williams, and powerful midfielder Joe Jenkins. Rugby director Pat Lam is confident they have test rugby potential!
🏉 With these names on the horizon, the future’s looking bright for Welsh rugby! Stay tuned for more thrilling updates and let’s see how Tandy shapes this talented group into a force to reckon with!
