[QUOTE="Pieter Steph du Teague, post: 1171608, member: 72520"] Wouldn't be so easily done if Welsh clubs loved paying their players. Quite a different situation as he'd already played in the Prem for Gloucester and had played England U20s. Cardiff can't really claim to have had much/any part in developing him. In fact I'm fairly sure he never even played a game for them, he was purely at the uni to study. Dombrandt, Pearson and Northmore were nobodies before going to Met. They did a ton of development with them and played for them every week. [/QUOTE]
