Newport Gwent Dragons and Welsh international winger Hallam Amos will take on Castres this upcoming Friday (15th January, KO 19:45) after returning to full fitness.

 

The 21-year-old has returned to full fitness after suffering a shoulder injury whist playing for Wales against England in the 2015 Rugby World Cup.
