Rhys Webb has been backed for a return to the Wales squad ahead of next year's World Cup after a man of the match performance in the Ospreys' win over Cardiff on Saturday evening.
Skipper Webb conducted the orchestra superbly along with half-back partner Gareth Anscombe. He looked threatening throughout the match, kicked superbly and took his try well. It was the kind of performance which will once again throw him back into the conversation around the national side.
Webb has been exiled by Wales boss Wayne Pivac ever since he suggested he would rather be at home supporting his wife and kids than be third-choice Wales scrum-half. Those comments came at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic, when it was particularly tough for players being away from their families and vice versa. They also came after Pivac left Webb out of the 2021 Six Nations squad, citing issues with his pace and passing accuracy.
