Biography
Pace and a sharp finishing instinct have been the hallmarks of Tom Rogers' rise at the Scarlets. Born on 17 December 1998, the back-three player is comfortable on the wing or at fullback, and combines a powerful, direct running style with the strike-finishing that earned him a call into the Wales squad in 2021. Rogers is a genuine attacking weapon for his region, frequently breaking the gain line, beating defenders in space, and providing the kind of try-scoring threat that stretches opposition defences. His value is not limited to attack, however: deployed at fullback he offers a reliable last line of defence, fielding high balls and covering the backfield with assurance. That dual capability makes him a flexible selection for the Scarlets, who can use his pace either as a finisher out wide or as a counter-attacking spark from deep. Rogers has continued to build on his early promise, adding consistency to the natural athleticism that first marked him out as a prospect. For the Scarlets, he remains an important source of attacking impetus, a quick, confident runner whose ability to turn broken play into points gives the backline an extra dimension.
