Here's a few that look likely to break through for Wales in the next few years:
Ospreys
- Ryan Bevington. Looshead prob who's in the full 6 nations squad. Age-22.
- Justin Tipuric. A no. 7 with a massive future imo. Hollah and Collins have been singing his praises, likening him to McCaw, a little much possibly, but he's made a hell of an impact at the O's so far, even captaining them on one occasion this season. An outside chance of being involved with the Welsh team at the WC. Age-21.
- Fly half Mathew Morgan has been tipped for great things. He's been described by a couple of coaches as being the most talented youth player they've ever seen. He's of slight stature though, so will be up against it at professional level, in the same way Arwel Thomas was. With Hook going, he looks likely to be next in line behind Biggar at the O's, hopefully he can surpass him quickly, as a running 10 is what the O's need. Age-18.
- Ashley Beck. A strong running centre who's been standing out at Premiership level for a couple of seasons now. He's recently started breaking into the Ospreys matchday squad. Age-20.
- Another centre, Hanno Dirksen. South African born, but come through the Swansea youth system. Almost certain future international, just depeds if it's for Wales or SA. Age-19.
- Two wings in Kristian Phillips, age-20 and, Eli Walker, age-18.
Blues
- Scott Andrews. Another young prop involved in the full 6 nations squad. Age-21.
- James Down. A highly rated young lock. He's 23 though, so falls slightly out of the requirement, but he is uncapped. Needs more gametime for the Blues than he's getting, I was actually a little surprised to see that he's 23 already!
- Josh Navidi. Openside in the mould of Martyn Williams, small but quick and skillfull. Age-20.
- Lloyd Williams. A 21 year old scrum half, son of Brynmor Williams. I'm hugely excited about this lad, his pass is one of the best I've seen, and he has genuine pace. Future 1st choice Wales scrum half imo.
Scarlets
- Ben Morgan. Plenty been said about this 21 year old no. 8 already. He's been great for the Scarlets in Lyons' absense, a ball carrying machine. English born, but has said he'd like to play for Wales. We'll see which country he ends up playing for, but genuine prospect.
- Simon Gardiner. Had to fill in for the 3 injured tightheads, and did so verry well. Considering his age, very promising start. Injured in his last match, which could keep him out for an extended length. Age-20.
- Ken Owens. Criminal that he's not yet been capped for Wales. Has probably been Wales' second best Hooker over the last season and a half. Age-23.
- Dan Newton. Fullback / Outside half. Has performed well when given a chance, but there's plenty of competition between a few youngsters at the Scarlets. Age-21.
- Steven Shingler. Outside half who's recently signed for London Irish. Age-19.
- Scott Williams. Has been around the Welsh squad recently, but yet to be capped. Strong, quick and skillfull centre who shone at U20 level. Age-20.
Dragons
- Toby Faletau. Involved with the current Welsh squad, but is struggling with an injury which will keep him out of the beggining of the 6 nations. Age-20.
- Martyn Thomas. Inly just returned from a horrific leg injury. Was on the cusp of a Welsh call up before injury. He's a quick and skillfull fullback, so is obviously needed in Wales! Age-23.
- Jason Tovey. He's been close to a Welsh call-up on a few occasions. Would have gone on a Summer tour at the age of 17/18 if the Dragons didn't have to play a Heineken Cup qualifier. Needs to improve his defense to make it on the international scene. Age-21.
- Adam Hughes. Has been causing quite a stur at the Dragons recently, scoring plenty of tries. Another centre with plenty of potential. Age-20.
That's about it, there's a few I've not included as I haven't seen enough of them yet. Players such as the Ellis brothers at the Dragons, or Nic Reynolds at the Scarletsa have plenty of potential aswell. A decent bunch there, that could make an impact for Wales after this years WC.
