Powerful, fast and with good technical skills Llewellyn has being playing for the famous Mattes Club out of Stellenbosch. He has 11 international caps to his name qualifying for a Tier 5 visa. He was a key member of the winning IRB Nations Cup win for Namibia scoring the winning try in the final against Romania. He has recently turned down the offer of a Currie Cup contract with Valke.
He enjoyed the World Cup experience and feels he has done enough tackle practice for a while but would have loved to have shown more of his skills. His break and chip to Danie Van Wyk for a superb try was considered one of the tries of the Rugby World Cup 2011 tournament. He is a dangerous strike runner comfortable on both wings and as an outside centre.
Looking to play in Europe Llewellyn is a polite determined individual who is very realistic with regards to earning capacity.
