Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua riro a Rhys Webb, kaitākaro o te kapa Wales, hei kaitākaro hou kua haina i tētahi kirimana takirua ā-motu. I kii te Welsh Rugby Union ko Webb 26-tau te kaitakaro tuawaru ki te whakaae ki tetahi kirimana e utua ana e te WRU me nga roopu a rohe o Wales - i te keehi a Webb, nga Ospreys - whai muri i a Sam Warburton, Dan Lydiate, Jake Ball, Samson Lee, Rhodri Jones, Tyler Morgan me Hallam Amos. Ko Webb tētahi o ngā kaitākaro o te kapa Wales i tēnei tau, e whā ngā whakamātautau i roto i ana whakamātautau e whitu whakamutunga. Kua hainatia e Rhys Webb (pokapū) tētahi kirimana takirua ā-motu me te Welsh Rugby Union me te Ospreys. 'Kua whakapumautia e Rhys a ia ano hei hawhe-hawhe o te ao, a, he tino tika ki te kirimana takirua a motu,' ka mea te kaiako o Wales, a Warren Gatland. 'Kua whakamiharo ia i te taumata ā-rohe mō ngā Ospreys, ā, ka whakarite tēnei i tōna heke mai i konei, ka nui te painga ki te whutupaoro ngaio i Wales.' I tāpiri atu a Webb: 'Kei te koa ahau ki taku whutupaoro i te Ospreys me Wales, a ka taea e au te hanga i runga i tera. E whā ngā whakamātautau a Webb i roto i ana whakamātautau e whitu whakamutunga, ā, i whakamīharo ia i te RBS 6 Nations. 'I te mea kua whakapumautia taku heke mai, ka taea e au te arotahi katoa ki te noho hei kaitakaro rugby pai ake.' Ko Webb, e tū ana mō Wales i te tukinga whakamutunga o RBS 6 Nations a te Rāhoroi e tū mai nei ki Itari i Roma, ka noho hei wāhanga matua o ngā mahere o te Ipu o te Ao a Gatland i te mutunga o tēnei tau. I kii te Tumuaki o te roopu WRU a Roger Lewis: 'He kaitakaro whakamiharo a Rhys Webb me tana taranata, he mea tino pai ki ta maatau raarangi o nga kaitakaro-a-motu e rua nga kirimana. 'Kei a mātou inaianei he ranunga whakamiharo o te wheako me te rangatahi kua whakapau kaha i to rātau heke mai ki Wales me ngā rohe.' Ka eke a Webb ki te whutupaoro i muri i tana tukinga i a Sean O'Brien o Ireland i te wikitoria whakamiharo a Wales i te Rahoroi.
Ko Rhys Webb te kaitākaro tuawaru ki te haina kirimana takirua ki te WRU. Ko Sam Warburton, Dan Lydiate, Jake Ball, Samson Lee, Rhodri Jones, Tyler Morgan me Hallam Amos etahi atu kaitakaro o Wales i runga i nga kirimana takirua. E whā ngā whakamātautau a Scrum-half i roto i ana whakamātautau e whitu whakamutunga mō tōna whenua. E mea ana a Webb ka taea e ia te arotahi katoa ki te noho hei kaitākaro pai ake.
