Four of Wales’ Grand Slam winners have agreed new deals with Welsh regions including Josh Adams who has confirmed his move from Worcester to Cardiff Blues. The wing will move back to Wales at the end of the season in order to stay eligible for international selection, while Scarlets trio Jonathan Davies, Ken Owens and Rob Evans have all signed on to stay at their region. But Wales international hooker Scott Baldwin is moving in the other direction to Adams and will leave the Ospreys at the end of the campaign to join Harlequins.

Jasmine Joyce believes Wales Women are closing the gap on the major forces in the Six Nations. They may not be striding quite as rapidly as the Great Britain Olympic wing does when she starts to fly, but the Scarlets player reckons Rowland Phillips’ side have started to reel in the opposition. Wales finished fourth in their Six Nations campaign – not much to shout from the rooftops at first glance compared the men’s Grand Slam masterclass, but it’s the upward trend that is worth noting.

He couldn’t help Cinderford stave off relegation a few seasons ago, but now Wales’ Grand Slam wing Josh Adams is steeling himself for a massive fight to keep Worcester Warriors in the Premiership. From the best team in the northern hemisphere, and the second best team in the World Rugby rankings, Adams will this week turn his attentions to hauling the Warriors out of the bottom two in the English Gallagher Premiership as they attempt to avoid the dreaded drop into the Championship for the bottom side. Last season’s top scorer in the competition, Adams has a lot to be thankful to the Warriors for. It was they who helped him resurrect his career after being released by the Scarlets. The Welsh region’s loss was certainly the English side’s gain, but it wasn’t all plain sailing for him when he arrived at Sixways.

He has already been linked with succeeding Eddie Jones as England chief as well as possibly moving to France and also heading up the 2021 British and Irish Lions tour of South Africa.
