Evan Lloyd is gaining attention as a promising Welsh hooker, while Cardiff seeks to strengthen its squad with new signings ahead of the Six Nations.
Cardiff: So, have you heard the latest rugby buzz? Young Welsh hooker Evan Lloyd is really making waves. His coach is super optimistic about his future, especially with a chance to shine in the Six Nations.
Lloyd, just 23, has already earned five caps for Wales. That’s pretty impressive for someone so early in their career. With the current captain out for a while, he’s in a prime spot to step up.
His coach, Matt Sherratt, is all praises for him. He mentioned how well Lloyd played against the Dragons and how he’s a real threat on the field. It sounds like he’s got the skills and the work ethic to go far.
On another note, there’s also Louie Hennessey, a young centre from Wales U20s, who’s set to make his debut for Cardiff. He’s on loan from Bath and has been looking sharp in training.
Sherratt is excited about Hennessey joining the team, especially since they need some fresh legs with a few injuries in the squad. It’s a great opportunity for him to show what he can do.
And speaking of opportunities, Cardiff might be looking to bring in another player soon to cover the wing position. With a couple of injuries, they’re a bit short on options.
Lastly, it’s a sad day for Welsh rugby as former Neath player Steve Dando has passed away. He was a beloved figure in the sport, known for his strength and reliability on the field.
His contributions to Neath Rugby were significant, and he’ll be missed by many. It’s a reminder of the impact these players have on the game and their communities.
