🚨 Big news from the Wales camp! 🚨
Wales scrum coach, Duncan Jones, has been forced to step away from the Six Nations squad after an unlucky training ground mishap. 😲 During a practice session, Jones collided with a player, leading to serious injuries in both knees. He’s set to undergo surgery on Friday.
While Jones won’t be able to join the team for their crucial match against England at Twickenham, forwards coach Danny Wilson has been taking over his duties. Depending on how Duncan’s operation goes, Wales might bring in a replacement.
This incident has added a bit of drama ahead of the game, especially with England’s formidable pack posing a real challenge. Head coach Tandy shared his thoughts, expressing how much Duncan’s presence and energy are missed by the team. 🌟
Tandy said, “It’s tough. It’s an absolute freak injury. Duncan brings so much energy, and it’s just unfortunate. It’s a blow for us.” Despite this, Duncan remains dedicated, attending meetings and staying involved as much as possible.
As the team prepares for their Twickenham clash, we’re all wishing Duncan a speedy recovery and hoping to see him back on his feet (even on crutches!) soon. 🤞
Meanwhile, the starting line-up is set, with young talent Archie Griffin taking his place as the starting tighthead, and seasoned pro Tomas Francis ready to bring his experience from the bench. The stage is set for an exciting contest! 🏉
Drop your wishes for Duncan below, and let’s rally behind the boys as they gear up to face England! 🇽🇪
