🏉 Wales Rugby fans, big news! Steve Tandy has just announced the squad to face Argentina in San Juan this Saturday. 🔥 After a triumphant start against Fiji, Tandy’s making only three changes, sticking mostly with the winning formula.
Scarlets’ fly-half Sam Costelow takes the helm in the pivotal 10 jersey, stepping in for Dan Edwards, who is not in this week’s lineup. We also see Ellis Mee stepping up, with wing sensation Louis Rees-Zammit moving to the bench. And in the pack, James Botham starts, while Alex Mann—after 10 consecutive Test starts—is sitting this one out.
đź’Ą Making his Test debut, Kane James, the dynamic back-row from Exeter Chiefs, is set to explode off the bench. Tandy is buzzing about Kane, hailing him as an “exciting player” with power and speed to burn. This 21-year-old is about to make his mark after a stellar season.
Also on the bench, Ryan Elias is looking forward to his 50th cap. Max Llewellyn and Teddy Williams are making their Test returns, sure to bring some heat to the field.
🌟 Tandy calls the upcoming clash an “amazing opportunity,” eager to build on last week’s performance away from home. Argentina won’t be easy, with their skilful and passionate play—but that’s exactly the test Wales needs as they aim to break back into the world top 10.
Wales v Argentina starting line-up:
Blair Murray, Ellis Mee, Eddie James, Joe Hawkins, Josh Adams; Sam Costelow, Tomos Williams; Rhys Carre, Dewi Lake (c), Dillon Lewis, Ben Carter, Adam Beard, James Botham, Jac Morgan, Aaron Wainwright.
Replacements: Ryan Elias, Nicky Smith, Ben Warren, Teddy Williams, Kane James, Kieran Hardy, Max Llewellyn, Louis Rees-Zammit.
Can our boys replicate last week’s magic away from home? 🏆 Let’s show our support and rally behind Wales this weekend!
