TEAM NEWS & SUPPORTER INFORMATION: NEATH v CROSS KEYS (AWAY) SATURDAY, JANUARY 25th, 2025 KICK OFF 2.30pm
Neath visit Pandy Park to play Cross Keys in the WRU Premiership on Saturday (kick off 2.30pm).
Both clubs will be hoping that Storm Eowyn passes quickly as Cross Keys have had more than their share of weather-fuelled problems this season and Neath’s last away game at Merthyr was frosted off.
Neath are aware that Cross Keys have had some good wins recently including last week at Brecon and results never come easy at Pandy Park so the All Blacks know that they will need to be focussed and precise in their play.
The All Blacks’ starting line-up shows several squad changes and Steff Williams will lead the team with skipper Ben Williams taking his turn on the bench.
Matthew Jenkins replaces Kieran Charles at centre with Rhodri Cole at scrum-half. Up front there are recalls for regulars Mason Morgan, Matthew Davies and Gethin Tremlett.
The replacements’ bench is yet to be finalised but it will feature Ben Williams and prop Ben Uphill who returns after being injured in pre-season.
