🚨 Rugby Fans, Get Ready! 🚨
Big news from the Welsh rugby scene—Steve Tandy is about to name his first squad, and it’s shaping up to be a rollercoaster ride of surprises and hot competition for spots. With a dozen positions still up for grabs, the mix of fresh faces and seasoned pros is sure to shake things up for the upcoming autumn campaign.
In the back three, we’ve got Blair Murray, Josh Adams, and Tom Rogers likely shoo-ins, yet all eyes are on the electric Tom Bowen, possibly making his senior squad debut after dazzling performances for Cardiff. Just watch out for those Shane Williams comparisons! 🌟
Shifting to midfield, while Ben Thomas and Max Llewellyn are probable picks, the field is wide open otherwise. Can Keiran Williams break through with his Ospreys form, or will Nick Tompkins make a grand re-entrance with Saracens?
Looking at the fly-half conundrum, Dan Edwards might lead the charge, with Sam Costelow, Jarrod Evans, and Callum Sheedy breathing down his neck. Meanwhile, scrum-half duties may see Tomos Williams return to form alongside Kieran Hardy and Reuben Morgan-Williams.
In the forwards, props Nicky Smith and Gareth Thomas are likely staples, but watch out for the rising Evan Lloyd and Danny Southworth. Second-row contenders include James Ratti and Ben Carter, but Teddy Williams’ injury throws the door wide open for fresh talent like Rhys Davies and James Fender.
Lastly, don’t blink while we sort the back-row jigsaw! Jac Morgan and Taulupe Faletau are staples, but Taine Plumtree, Alex Mann, and Ross Moriarty are vying for those crucial spots.
As the excitement builds, who do you think will make the cut? Let us know your picks! And keep your eyes peeled for Tuesday’s announcement. 🏉👀
