TOM COOLS TALK OF WALES CALL
Western Mail
|October 14, 2025
CARDIFF youngster Tom Bowen insists he’s keeping his feet on the ground, despite his impressive start to the new season.
The 19-year-old has become the United Rugby Championship’s joint-top try scorer, going over twice in a 14-8 win over Connacht at the Arms Park.
That brace came after an impressive hat-trick against Munster in Limerick the previous week.
He now sits level with Benetton's Louis Lynagh on five tries at the top of the scoring charts.
Such has been his blistering start to the season, many are tipping the teenager for a Wales call-up from new head coach Steve Tandy next week ahead of the autumn internationals.
"I am just loving my rugby at the moment," he said.
