Ultimate XV: Wing

13/04/2020

The pack is complete and the half backs have been chosen! Now to see who will be the first winger selected in our Ultimate XV feature – in association with doopoll. There will be two votes for wing, with the number 14 jersey selected later this week.

The votes were cast and Dragons all-time record points scorer Jason Tovey has emerged victorious in a close fought contest to earn his spot at fly half in the Dragons Rugby Ultimate XV  – but who will join him and scrum half Gareth Cooper in the Ultimate Dragons backline?

Today we have selected six stars to fight over for the first winger spot.

Remember, if you think someone else is deserving you can nominate them too and there's a chance they can be included in Thursday's poll! Just comment when you vote!

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