There will be a special presentation at pitch side after the Connacht match for Craig Quinnell, Dean Dewdney and Dan Baugh who have had to retire from playing professional rugby due to injury. We would like to thank all three for giving great service to both Cardiff RFC and Cardiff Blues over the years.
The supporters club will also have a presentation to Jonah Lomu in the Clubhouse after the match. Jonah will be returning to New Zealand in June for the NPC season and play for the North Harbour side.
