Wales call Hallam Amos up to Six Nations squad
- 1482
Cardiff Blues outside back Hallam Amos has been called into the Wales squad as a replacement for the injured Owen Lane.
Amos has been sidelined for the past month due to ankle ligament damage but he returned to action on the wing for Cardiff Blues against Connacht in Galway at the weekend and came through his comeback unscathed.
Wayne Pivac has since moved quickly to draft him into the squad ahead of Saturday’s showdown with France at the Principality Stadium.
He takes the place of fellow Blues back Lane, who was released earlier in the campaign after tearing his hamstring.
Lane was not replaced at the time.
There has been no further changes to the squad with an additional flyhalf yet to be named despite doubt over Dan Biggar's fitness and Jarrod Evans being the only fully fit pivot.
