With the call-up of Scotland’s Ben White, Scotland’s Tomos Williams has been declared out of the rest of the British and Irish Lions’ tour of Australia.
After scoring a try against Western Force in Perth on Saturday, Williams was forced off the field with a hamstring injury.
This is heartbreaking news for Tomos, according to Lions tour manager Ieuan Evans. He won the Premiership player-of-the-season award after joining the Tour and having a fantastic season. He displayed both his talent and personality on this Lions tour. ‘
With the departure of flanker Jac Morgan, there is only one Welshman left in the 38-man squad.
Head coach Andy Farrell stated that Williams’ condition was “worse than expected” and would keep him out for a while.
He’s an outstanding player and has played unimaginably well, according to Farrell. But the player and the bloke will also be missed. He’s everything on a tour, which makes it harder for everyone. ‘
Ben White, a player from Scotland, will travel from Whangarei, New Zealand, to face the Mori All Blacks, Fiji, and Samoa this summer. After recovering from a glute injury, Ireland’s Jamison Gibson-Park will make his debut on the road against the Queensland Reds at age nine.
