Saturday rugby headlines as Wales star's career appears to end in 'heartbreaking' incident

Your rugby morning headlines for Saturday, April 30.

The career of Wales and Cardiff full-back Hallam Amos looks like it could be over after he suffered what appeared to be a hamstring injury against Munster on Friday night.

The 27-year-old was the shining light in blue and black in what was an entertaining first half out in Musgrave Park but his time out on the artificial turf was cut short around the half hour mark. After making a break, Amos stayed down on the deck, clutching the back of his right leg.

There was an air of resignation on his face as he appeared to be diagnosing himself when in conversation with the physios on the field. He was then helped onto the back of a stretcher and his team-mates on the replacements bench raised to their feet to clap him off as he exited the field.

The 25-cap international has taken the early decision to hang up his boots at the end of this season to pursue a career in medicine. With just three games left, this may well be the last time we see Amos on a rugby field.
