Thomas Young handed Wales debut

Thomas Young will make his Test debut on Friday after being named in the Wales starting XV to take on Tonga at Eden Park.
The Wasps star, who was a European Player of the Year nominee, will start at openside alongside two fellow uncapped players in lock Seb Davies and wing Steff Evans.
Another Premiership star, Owen Williams, could follow in Young’s footsteps if he comes off the bench where Ellis Jenkins and Cory Allen are the only capped players named.
Scarlets duo Wyn Jones and Ryan Elias and Cardiff Blues‘ Dillon Lewis, Newport Gwent Dragons back rower Ollie Griffiths and Scarlets scrum-half Aled Davies are the other uncapped players on the bench.
There will be plenty of experience to draw from in midfield however with captain Jamie Roberts (94 caps) and Scott Williams (46 caps) starting outside the exciting Sam Davies.
“It’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for our players to be taking part in this match at Eden Park, and we expect them to make the most of it,” says head coach Robin McBryde.
“We’ve got an average age of 25 in the match squad, but there are experienced heads in there. We’ll need them all to be on top form against what will undoubtedly be a passionate, tough Tongan team.
“We’ve had a very good week in Auckland. The younger players have gained a valuable insight into what is expected of an international rugby player, with much of that being led by the senior players’ example. That learning process will continue this Friday in Eden Park, and again when we head to Samoa for next Friday’s Test match in Apia.”
