Wales wing Louis Rees-Zammit appears to be in the formative years of what you could quite comfortably predict will be a long and prosperous career as an international rugby player.
Though head coach Wayne Pivac left him out of some games during the recent Six Nations amid a dip in form, the speedster is now part of the furniture at the team's Vale Resort training HQ. But it wasn't always this way.
At the age of 18, having impressed for club side Gloucester, Rees-Zammit received his first call-up to the squad for the 2020 Six Nations. Pivac resisted the clamour to throw the teenager in and he didn't see a minute of game time during the tournament, but it proved a valuable experience as he got a taste of life in camp.
