Tomos Williams Withdraws from the Lions Tour Due to Injury
Scrum-half Tomos Williams has been ruled out of the rest of the British and Irish Lions tour due to a hamstring injury. The Welsh player suffered the injury during the Lions’ first match on Australian soil, against Western Force on Saturday, where the team achieved a resounding 54-7 victory. Williams, who seemed set to earn a starting position in the Lions’ test team after scoring two tries in Perth, now returns home, leaving Jac Morgan as the only Welsh player in the team.Ben White from Scotland will be part of the Lions team for the first time, preparing for the next match against the Queensland Reds on Wednesday.Unfortunately, Tomos has been ruled out for the rest of the tour due to a hamstring injury. Ben White will join us from the Scotland squad and will fly in from New Zealand.
