Matt Powell

Matthew Powell (born 8 May 1978 in Abergavenny, Wales) is a Welsh rugby union footballer, who played for Worcester Warriors at scrum-half.

Powell was educated at Christ College Brecon and played for the first XV, coached by Jon Williams, between 1994 and 1996.

He left Saracens to join Harlequins in June 2000 and played in the Tetley's Bitter Cup final of 2001 against Newcastle Falcons.

Powell joined Worcester Warriors in 2003, and in 2007 penned a new three-year deal to commit himself to the club until 2010.

His consistent displays were later rewarded with a late call-up to play for the Barbarians in their annual match as a replacement for the former All Black, Justin Marshall.
