Wales international Willis Halaholo has issued an emotional statement amid circumstances that could lead to an end to his Cardiff career.
The luckless centre sustained an Achilles injury and may be out for 12 months, according to Cardiff coach David Young.
It is the latest setback for the talented midfield man, who hasn’t played since last October because of a hamstring problem. Halaholo was due to return for Cardiff in Saturday’s encounter with Ulster, but those plans had to be revised and he is set to undergo surgery.
