Robyn Lock

Ospreys Women in action for Wales

Wales Women have named four Ospreys in their line-up to take on Scotland in their final Women's Six Nations game on Saturday, KO 5pm.

Ospreys in the Community trustee, Robyn Lock makes her first Six nations start for Wales and first start as hooker making the switch from flanker. Ospreys teammate Kelsey Jones provides the cover off the bench. 

Natalia John is named in the second-row and Gwen Crabb is named on the bench to complete the Ospreys lineup in the squad.

Wales Women Head Coach, Warren Abrahams said, “We’re excited about the opportunity to go out one more time in a Six Nations match and represent the jersey.

“We have some injuries – Siwan in particular is a big loss as captain and one of our stand-out players to date – but equally it’s a chance to give others the opportunity to put their hands up with the Rugby World Cup next year.

“It's good to see some leaders getting additional responsibility with Hannah Jones as captain and another of our leaders Georgia stepping up as vice-captain.

“I’m excited by the backline with some of the younger players such as Meg Davies and Caitlin Lewis hungry for opportunities and Jaz will no doubt add some spice at full-back.

“It’s a privilege to be in this position, opportunities like these don’t come around every day so we have to take responsibility now and make this one count.

“We know we didn’t start well in our first two matches, we have to make sure we get straight out from the blocks on Saturday and build our innings from there.

“I always believe in the team, and I know if they can get themselves in the best possible mindset, get on the front foot and make some bold decisions, they can show what they’re made of.”
