Roberts Bows Out: Injury Forces Welsh and Dragons Star to Retire.

Bradley Roberts, the hooker for Wales and Dragons, has retired at just 29 due to a back injury.

Bradley Roberts, born in South Africa, joined the Dragons from Ulster in 2022 after playing for the Sharks in Durban. 

Reflecting on his career, Roberts said, "My career has been short but sweet, and I look back with pride and amazement." Before moving to Ulster, he had a stint with RGC in the Welsh Premiership, where his strong ball-carrying caught Wales' attention. 

He earned his first of five Wales caps in 2021. Dragons head coach Dai Flanagan praised Roberts' dedication, saying his passion and talent endeared him to fans and led him to success at the highest level.
