Cardiff number eight Alun Lawrence has been given a new long-term contract to stay at the Arms Park.
Lawrence, 26, returned to Cardiff during the 2023-24 season following the demise of Jersey Reds, initially on a short-term contract.
He signed a permanent deal at the end of last season, but has now extended that contract, following an impressive start to the season.
“I’m pleased to extend Alun’s stay at the club, it is something he thoroughly deserves,” said Cardiff head coach Matt Sherratt.
“He is a player who has grasped his second opportunity at the club and has become an invaluable player for us. His performances so far this season speak for themselves.”
