Williams in Wasps link

Veteran flanker Martyn Williams could become the latest Wales star to play his rugby outside the country with Wasps leading the chase to secure his signature. The Western Mail's Simon Thomas reports.

"Speaking for the first time since being dropped from the Six Nations squad by Warren Gatland and reports that he was to be axed by the Blues, Williams was adamant that his future remains bright.

“It’s nowhere near as grim as people have been making out,” said the 35-year-old. “It’s not as if I’m going to be on the dole in June and scraping around with nothing to do!

“People on the outside have been making more of it than I have. It’s not a case of Armageddon and having to sell up and live in a cardboard box somewhere!

“It has been different, but I’ve been through proper tough times before in my life. This isn’t like that. I am excited about my future, whatever happens. I am fortunate I have got options.

“I have been with Castle Court Consulting for the last three years and the support I have had from them has been outstanding. And, on the rugby front, there are a number of offers on the table."
