Welsh rugby union player

History Claim
Rhys Priestland is a retired Welsh international rugby union player who last played as a fly-half for Cardiff Rugby and the Wales national team. Although he primarily played as a fly-half, he was also capable of playing at full-back. Born in Llangathen, Carmarthenshire, he began his career with Llanelli RFC before progressing to the Scarlets regional side. After eight years with the Scarlets, he moved to England to play for Bath in the English Premiership, where he spent six seasons before returning to Wales with Cardiff Rugby. He made his Wales debut in 2011, and earned 50 caps – including being named in the squad for the 2011 and 2015 Rugby World Cups – before his move to England made him ineligible for selection.
