If I remember correctly he is part way through a degree course and took a year out as It was commented (by sandy I think) that he was possibly having issues combining the course and his rugby. I hope he gets back to his degree and this will help him through the next phase of his career. I have nothing but the greatest respect for Rhys, he always gives his all and is constantly leaving bits of himself on the pitch, having seen him play on having been knocked out, injured, even coming back on once with a roll of cotton wool stuck up each nostrel just to keep playing. never really spoken to him, but always comes across as a great bloke with his heart and his head in the right place. Will be a big loss for the club, but all the best to him and his family wherever it takes them.
