Three years on from his last game of rugby, Cory Allen has taken “a massive step forward” on the road to recovery.
It was in September 2019 that the Welsh international threequarter sustained a career changing injury while playing for the Ospreys against Ulster out in Belfast, with damage to the anterior cruciate ligament and cartilage in his right knee. Since then he has been hit by a series of setbacks.
Now 29, the man who scored a hat-trick of tries from the centre during Wales’ opening game of the 2015 World Cup against Uruguay is currently with the Dragons. The news from there is encouraging. There finally appears to be some light at the end of the tunnel for the Barry boy, who first made his mark with Cardiff Blues.
