Wales rugby stars Tom James and Ceri Sweeney bailed after Cardiff assault
Two Welsh rugby internationals are among four people arrested after an incident in Cardiff hours after Wales' weekend Twickenham victory.
Cardiff Blues winger Tom James, 24, and fly-half Ceri Sweeney, 32, were arrested and bailed after a man was assaulted early on Sunday.
Police said a 26-year-old man needed stitches for a facial wound after an incident in Greyfriars Place.
Blues chief executive Richard Holland said: "There was an incident."
South Wales Police have not named the players, but say two men aged 24 and two other men aged 27 and 32 were arrested.
Neither Sweeney, who played the last of his 35 Tests in 2007, or James, who has won 10 caps since 2007, are part of the current Wales squad competing in the Six Nations Championship.
BBC Wales understands the alleged assault took place outside the Tiger Tiger club.
Blues chief executive Holland added: "There was an incident but until the police have concluded formalities from their side there is no statement to make on it."
Police said a second man, aged 27, was also assaulted at around 01:20 GMT.
Police say they are keen to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time and witnessed the incident.
Anyone with information can contact the force by calling the non-emergency number 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.

Couple of things.
Are they really Welsh rugby STARS?
And how the hell did Sweeney get 35 caps!

Obviously no information given about what actually happened but can't be good for the Blues given their other problems. Someone got lamped but the guys may not have been directly involved (which is what has usually happened in these cases)

Unfair representation of the welsh team. neither are currently playing for wales.
Wales should not even be asked to comment on this story as it has nothing to do with the team
Same gutter press that England had to deal with during the world.

I'm not surprised Tom James is involved in something like this. He's hot headed on the pitch as it is. He won't play for Wales again, unless he learns to control his temperament. Shame really, because he could be a decent player if he didn't go bananas when he's peed off on the pitch.
