My Take
At 195 cm, Cory Hill is built to wear the red of Wales, and his journey is the part I love. Born in 1992, he moved from Pontypridd to the Cardiff Blues, on to Moseley and the Dragons, then circled back to Cardiff, a career of grafting through the Welsh club system rather than coasting. A lock who can also cover blindside flanker is exactly the unglamorous, do-it-all forward every coach quietly craves. I'm always drawn to the engine-room players who win matches in the collisions nobody films. Hill strikes me as that dependable workhorse, big yet versatile.
Overview
