In this section of the site, you can see profiles of the Cardiff Blues squad members. It includes, information and photos on the players and coaches at the Arms Park.

           

(Thomas) Rhys Thomas was born in Newport, but was brought into the Cardiff youth set up at a young age.

He signed proffessionally for Cardiff aged 20, the same year the regions were brought in. He has had a fine 3 years with the Blues, establishing himself firmly as the number 1 hooker in the squad, and more recently making himslef number 1 hooker for Wales.

Aged 23, Mike Ruddock is a keen admirer of Rhys, prefering him to Gloucester's Mefin Davies, clearly with the World Cup on his mind.

He confirmed his future with the Blues in 2005, by signing a deal that will see him at Cardiff until the end of 07/08 season. He is a great player, who makes up an impressive all Welsh front row for the capital.
