Wales Squad Update: Both Rogers and Adam unavailable for England clash

36 players have returned to The Vale Resort in the Vale of Glamorgan, as they begin preparations for their upcoming Guinness Six Nations match against England at Principality Stadium on Saturday 15 March (kick-off 4:45pm GMT).

However, Tom Rogers sustained a fractured thumb against Scotland at the weekend that requires surgery, and this means he is out of the England game. The 26-year-old who has been impressive in his Six Nations debut scoring a picturesque finish against Ireland, has his afternoon cut short at Murrayfield as he left the pitch on 8 minutes and was replaced by Joe Roberts.

Cardiff Rugby’s Adams is released due to a hamstring injury in training that requires a period of rehabilitation that will be undertaken at his club.
