Wales summer squad 2026

Attack coach Matt Sherratt has some thinking to do after convincing Steve Tandy to pick SEVEN centres in his squad.

Joe Hawkins replaced Ben Thomas to finish the Six Nations alongside the impressive Eddie James.

Max Llewellyn got the nod in the autumn but then suffered an injury to miss the Six Nations.

They are joined by Joe Roberts, who came in to face the Springboks, plus two promising prospects from English clubs.

Bath’s Louie Hennessey won his first cap against Ireland while Harlequins’ Bryn Bradley comes into the squad.

Seven centres and still the likes of Owen Watkin, Johnny Williams, Nick Tompkins and influential uncapped Dragon Aneurin Owen miss out.
