Tom James signs new Blues deal

Tom James has signed a new long-term deal with Cardiff Blues after his impressive start to the PRO12 season.

The wing returned to BT Sport Cardiff Arms Park ahead of the 2015-16 campaign, following two seasons with Exeter Chiefs.

“I left because I wanted to test myself in a new environment and improve as a player. I was very happy to come back ahead of last season and I feel I came back a better player," commented James.

“I’ve been really pleased with the way things have gone and I bit Danny’s hand off when he offered me this new deal."

The 29-year-old burst onto the regional scene in 2006 and has since made 136 appearances for the Blues.
