Wales fly-half Gareth Anscombe suffers an injury blow while Owen Farrell is criticized by the French press for his performance
Gloucester: So, here’s the scoop from the rugby world. Wales fly-half Gareth Anscombe had a rough day. He limped off during the match against Sale Sharks, and it didn’t look good. Gloucester’s coach, George Skivington, mentioned that Anscombe took a hit to the knee and wasn’t moving well at half-time. They decided to pull him out to avoid making things worse. Fingers crossed it’s nothing serious since the Six Nations squad announcement is just around the corner.
Meanwhile, Gloucester had a great game, with Max Llewellyn scoring two tries. They beat Sale Sharks 36-20, keeping their playoff hopes alive. Sale struggled early on, trailing 22-3 at one point. Even with some late tries, they couldn’t catch up.
On another note, Owen Farrell is in hot water with the French media. After joining Racing 92, he’s been labeled the biggest transfer flop in the Top 14. The French press isn’t holding back, saying he’s been underwhelming despite his impressive resume. They’re hoping his recent groin surgery will help him bounce back when he returns to the field.
Lastly, Brython Thunder couldn’t pull off a comeback against Edinburgh in the Celtic Challenge. They lost 22-15, marking their third straight defeat. It’s been a tough start for them, but there’s always next time!
