Dragons to Fire Wales

Three Dragons players will represent Wales in the Wellington Sevens this week

Three Dragons players will represent Wales in the Wellington Sevens this week. Aled Brew, the Dragons newest signing, has been selected to bring some extra experience to a young team for the tournament in New Zealand from 6-7 February before he returns to the region to prepare for the crucial Magners League fixture against Ulster on 20 February.

Dragons players Tal Selly and Tom Isaacs (Newport / Dragons) have been called up for the trip with Jimmy Norris joining the squad for the second tournament in San Diego from 14-15 Feb.

Also selected from the region is Newport player Craig Hill who will travel to both Wellington and San Diego.

Coach Paul John said: “It’s great to welcome back some seasoned Sevens players to the squad whilst Tom Isaacs and Jimmy Norris return to the squad after promising first outings in Dubai and George.

“While we performed well at times in Dubai and George, experience is vital at this level and we are hoping to use these tournaments to gain some form and confidence ahead of the Rugby World Cup Sevens in March.

“We have a tough Pool in Wellington with Australia and New Zealand two of our Day One opponents, and we particularly want to improve on our disappointing displays against Australia in Dubai and George.”

Wales Sevens squad for Wellington and San Diego: (Forwards): Lee Beach (capt, Neath), Josh Turnbull (Scarlets), Craig Hill (Newport), James Merriman (Neath), Dafydd Hewitt (Blues, Wellington only), Chris Davies (Aberavon).
(Backs): Lee Williams (Scarlets), Rhys Webb (Ospreys), Aled Thomas (London Welsh, Wellington only), Tal Selley (Dragons), Rhodri McAtee (Cornish Pirates), Tom Isaacs (Dragons), Aled Brew (Dragons, Wellington only), Chris Czekaj (Blues, San Diego only), Jimmy Norris (Dragons, San Diego only)
