Ultimate XV: Tighthead Prop

01/04/2020

We finish the front row in our Ultimate XV feature – in association with doopoll - as fans continue to vote in their hundreds to decide our best ever line-up!

The votes have been cast for hooker.... with Elliot Dee crowned the winner!

The attention now turns to the front row rock – our tighthead prop position.

We have narrowed it down to five and, remember, if you think someone else is deserving you can nominate them too!

Everyone who signs up and votes will be entered into a prize draw for a Dragons jersey.

Which of these five nominations gets your vote:

Chris Anthony (2003-2006): 43 appearances

Neath born prop Chris Anthony featured for Swansea, Ebbw Vale and Newport RFC before becoming a Dragon in 2003. Anthony, who also played for the Barbarians, made 17 appearances for Wales after a debut against the USA in 1997.

Leon Brown (2016 to present): 42 appearances

Tighthead prop Brown made his debut for Dragons in 2016 against Leicester Tigers, coming off the bench in the Anglo-Welsh Cup. Brown made the step up to the Wales senior side in the 2017 autumn international against Australia and has already won 10 caps.

Lloyd Fairbrother 2014-2020): 124 appearances

Prop powerhouse Fairbrother has made over a century of appearances at Dragons and is a cornerstone of the pack. Born in Cornwall, Fairbrother joined Dragons in the summer of 2014 and made his debut against Connacht later that year. The hugely popular front row has also had playing spells with Exeter Chiefs, Moseley, Cornish Pirates and Plymouth Albion.

Rhys Thomas (2003-2009): 126 appearances

South African born prop Thomas began his professional career with Newport RFC and was a regular with the Dragons for six seasons. He made his Wales debut in 2006 against Argentina and would go on to win a total of seven caps.

Dan Way (2010-2015) 105 appearances

Prop Dan Way made over a century of appearances for Dragons before he retired with a shoulder injury in 2015. The Swindon-born front row also played for Bedwas, Ebbw Vale, Pontypool, Blackwood and Newport RFC.

Keep your eyes peeled for the winner and final team on our social media channels once the voting is complete!
