Cardiff: So, here’s the scoop from the rugby scene. George North is singing the praises of Sam Davies, calling him “immense” ahead of their upcoming match. Sam’s been killing it over in France with Grenoble since he made the move from Wales last year.
North and Davies are set to face off for the first time in the league, and North is pretty excited about it. He’s been impressed with what Davies has been doing and hopes to keep his team competitive against Grenoble’s speed.
On another note, Rio Dyer, a wing for the Dragons, is feeling a bit down after not making the cut for the Six Nations squad. His coach, Filo Tiatia, says Dyer is taking it in stride and is eager to improve based on the feedback he got from the Welsh coaches.
Tiatia had a heart-to-heart with Dyer, and it sounds like he’s ready to bounce back. Dyer will still be playing for the Dragons during the Six Nations, which is a plus for the team, even if it’s a bummer he’s not in the national squad.
Meanwhile, young fly-half Dan Edwards is gearing up for his chance to shine with Wales. He’s one of the few outside-halves in the Six Nations squad, and his coach believes he’s got what it takes to handle the pressure. Edwards has already shown he can perform in tough situations, so fans are hopeful he’ll do well.
Lastly, there’s some sad news from South Africa. Raymond Rhule has had to retire due to an Achilles injury. At just 32, it’s a tough break for him after a solid career. He played for the Springboks and had a good run in professional rugby, but now he’s hanging up his boots.
