Rugby Union: Alun Wyn Jones gets call up to Wales squad

Sport | Richard Gurner | Published: 11:28, Tuesday February 12th, 2013.

Wales have called Ospreys lock Alun Wyn Jones into their 2013 RBS 6 Nations squad.

Jones, who has been capped 67 times by Wales, returned to action for his region last weekend and will link up with the squad today as they reconvene following their 16-6 victory in Paris against France.

The 27-year-old came off the bench for the Ospreys on Friday evening having recovered from a shoulder injury he picked up during Wales’ autumn international campaign.

Jones made his regional debut for the Ospreys in the 2005/2006 season and was selected for Wales’ summer tour to Argentina at the end of that campaign where he made his international debut.

He has gone on to play in two World Cups and has been part of two Grand Slam winning Wales sides.
