🏉 Your Weekend Rugby Update!
First up, it’s all eyes on Louis Rees-Zammit who added some drama in his rugby return! The Bristol Bears winger gave fans plenty to chat about during his chaotic game against Gloucester. Rees-Zammit wowed with a stunning try, almost bagged another, but stumbled close to the line—not to mention his run-in with Caio James that saw both landing in the sin bin. Gloucester fans didn’t miss a beat, heckling him throughout what became a gripping “rugby theatre” show.
In injury news, it’s a tough break for Scarlets. Both Ryan Elias and Eddie James are sidelined following surgeries. Elias needs recovery time for an elbow procedure, eyeing a November return. James is dealing with a back issue and may miss Wales’ autumn games against Japan, Argentina, South Africa, and New Zealand.
Also on the injury list are Mason Grady and James Botham from Cardiff Rugby, both set to sit out as Steve Tandy gears up for his initial games in charge.
Shifting gears to the Women’s Rugby World Cup, Canada is making waves! They stormed past New Zealand in a thrilling 34-19 win, ending the Black Ferns’ stunning 18-match World Cup run. Canada’s fantastic form means they’ll face either England or France in the final—both eagerly watching from the stands.
Lastly, York Valkyrie’s Sinead Peach faces a four-match suspension for her heated outburst at a match official. Her ban means missing the semi-final against St Helens and potentially the Grand Final if her team progresses.
Enjoy the weekend action and stay tuned for more rugby thrills! 🏆🏉🌍
