Powell moves inside to 10 as George is ruled of out Wales’ trip to France
South Wales Echo
|April 11, 2025
FLY-HALF Lleucu George has been ruled out of Wales’ Six Nations match against France tomorrow with an ankle injury.
-
In an otherwise unchanged side from the 67-12 defeat by England, head coach Sean Lynn moves centre Kayleigh Powell to 10 and drafts Courtney Keight into midfield.
Bristol's Keight partners captain Hannah Jones at centre, with another Bears player, assistant captain Kiera Bevan, at scrum-half.
The back three remains unchanged with triple GB Olympian Jasmine Joyce-Butchers at full-back and Carys Cox and Lisa Neumann the wings.
Lynn has also stuck with the same pack with flankers Alex Calender (foot) and Alisha Butchers (virus) still out.
Brython Thunder lock Natalia John returns from injury among the replacements, while Gwalia Lightning prop Jenny Scoble remains the only starter based in Wales.
