These are your rugby headlines on Saturday, December 28. Wales star blows everyone away Cardiff and Wales star Josh Adams has been lauded by coach Matt Sherratt after his player of the match performance against the Dragons. The 29-year-old wing showed his quality in the URC derby, as he scored his fourth try in three games with a superb solo effort and looked dangerous whenever he was in possession, with fans hailing him as "magic" and "a class act".
It comes after Adams spent six months on the sidelines with a knee injury, with the 59-cap international missing the summer tour of Australia as well as the winless autumn campaign. However, he has hit form at the right time and not just for Warren Gatland with the Six Nations looming, but also for Sherratt, whose side are now up to third in the league. "He is all in for us," said the Cardiff coach as he praised Adams' talents.
"I love seeing him at the end of the game for us in terms of how emotive he is. "You are talking about somebody who has played in World Cups and for the British and Irish Lions and he is so engaged with our group. He has shown all of his attributes in terms of his resilience and ability to be 100% in games.
He has that bit of match sharpness at the moment and has looked dangerous."
