Taulupe Faletau Called Into Wales' Six Nations Squad

Bath Rugby back-rower Taulupe Faletau has been called up to the Wales squad for the remainder of the Six Nations.

The three-time British and Irish Lions tourist has played just twice for Bath this season after sustaining an injury in the third Lions test back in July last year.

He made a try-scoring return for Bath in their 41-24 loss to Wasps on 12 February in an action-packed hour-long performance.

This past weekend, he made his second appearance for Bath playing a full 80 minutes in the 20-24 loss to Leicester Tigers.

Faletau joins the squad as it continues preparations for the match v England on Saturday 26 February KO 4.45pm live on ITV and S4C.

The no.8 has 91 test caps under his belt including five for the British and Irish Lions.
