Cardiff – Llandovery team news

Cardiff entertain league leaders Llandovery at the Arms Park on Thursday looking to build on a recent run of form
Speak ahead of the game Gruff Rees said “we are very much looking forward to playing the top side in the league. W have had a tight turnaround and a few injuries to contend with and there are a few weary bodies as we come to the end of this long block of games.
It is good though to see players stepping up into a big game like this. We are pleased to welcome Kodie Stone back from the Wales U20s camp and we also have players making a first appearance in Blue & Black. Johan Hoogendoorn starts following a few and there are new faces on the bench. Connor Vaughan and Ieuan Prince are both local boys and it is good to see the links we are making with local clubs and we thank all of them for their support.
Cam TylerGrocott continues to make a mark as an 18 year old prop at this level and Tom Hughes again joins the bench following his debut last weekend.”
