Iolo Evans was at RGC last season, where he player more at 13 - his best position as he hasn't quite got the pace for a winger IMO. He was also involved with Wales 7s and played at the Twickenham leg of the series. Played 7s as an invitational player for London Welsh. Has the potential to be a good player

Rob Evans should take a Richard Kelly type role this season. I'm impressed by the 20's th Gareth Thomas. We are developing up front nicely let's hope we can hang on to these players.

I'm a bit surprised the Quins have been allocated both Rob Evans and Gareth Thomas. They're both young loose heads and Quins already have Ian Jones in that position who is a solid Premiership player.

I would've preferred one of the young props to be put with the RFC or Llandovery.
I would prefer Rob Evans with the Scarlets. It's time he was given his head at regional level.

He looks a good prospect but didn't play much rugby last season. He should prove himself in the Premiership first.

Danny Wilson seems a good judge of when a forward is ready to step up, so when his game is up there with Rhodri and Phil I'm sure he'll get an opportunity.

Either Rob Evans (our British Lion Loosehead ) or Rhodri needs to take over Phil John's place this year because he isn't Rabo standard against the top teams and we can't expect him to have another season with as much work as he put in last year.

Saw him play in the U18 Regional final and the U18 International v England. Very strong scrummager but also a strong ball carrier. Certainly a great prospect.

When I first saw Iolo Evans come on as replacement for Llanelli at Pontypwl he  played like a young Grav. Unfortunately his confidence and handling skills deserted him and toward the end of his time with Llanelli even if he did take a pass cleanly he wasn't sure whether to pass on or carry so he frequently slowed an attack down. Let's hope he gets his confidence back with the Quins and we see more of that confident aggression back in his game.

  Yes

Great thanks.

Will look forward to see how he gets on with Quins.

Where was he last season? Any idea?


Last I saw of Iolo was playing for what was badged as a London Welsh team in the JP Morgan 7's up at Sale last season, after he was released by us. Not sure where he played after that though.

Thanks for posting this Mark - a lot of talent there as you say.

Will be very interested to see how Jevan Sebastian performs at this next level.

Gareth Thomas down as a tight-head with Javan Sebastian.
Let Jon Gardiner's progress be a lesson for those who always think the grass (or money) is greener on the Leicester or even Connacht side of the border and that he settles down to prosper first for Quins and then the Scarlets.
 
What are the chances of a similar table for Llanelli and the Scarlets before October?
