🚀 Exciting times for Welsh rugby! Former internationals Richie Rees and Alex Cuthbert are making waves, urging coach Steve Tandy to start Sam Costelow in the upcoming clash against Argentina. 🌟
The 25-year-old Scarlets fly-half impressed off the bench last weekend against Fiji, steering Wales to a confident 39-24 win. 🏉 Despite Dan Edwards holding the 10 jersey for the majority of recent matches, Rees is championing Costelow for the starting spot in San Juan. 🎯
On the Scrum V podcast, Rees reflected on Costelow’s stellar performance, emphasising the need for their game plan to be more controlled and methodical. He believes Costelow’s balanced playing style and precise kicking could be the key to enhancing Wales’ performance against Argentina’s aggressive defence. 🔥
“After the first half against Fiji, we needed to make quick adjustments, and Costelow’s substitution was spot-on,” Rees shared. He highlighted Costelow’s ability to manage the game, kick smartly, and orchestrate plays leading to two tries. 🎈
Cuthbert chimed in, expressing confidence that Costelow’s talents would shine in the starting lineup. Meanwhile, Rees noted Scotland’s recent successes exploiting Argentina’s defence with clever plays – a strategy Costelow executed well in his Six Nations start against Scotland. 🏆
Could we witness Costelow leading the charge this weekend? It promises to be a thrilling encounter and a significant moment for the Wales squad. Stay tuned, the excitement is palpable! 🙌
