THE TRUTH ABOUT: Special outside half to quit exeter chiefs and join welsh region for better contract - Caught on Camera

Australian Sevens international Jack Walsh is on his way to Wales, but with his destination still to be confirmed. The 22-year-old Exeter fly-half is to leave Sandy Park at the end of this season having secured an improved contract with a Welsh team.

That points to him joining one of the four regions. Cardiff contacts indicate he’s not heading to the Arms Park, while the Scarlets are pretty stacked at No 10, with the likes of Rhys Patchell, Sam Costelow and Dan Jones on board. As for the Dragons, they have signed Irish utility back JJ Hanrahan from Clermont Auvergne, with Sam Davies and Josh Lewis already in the squad.

The Ospreys would be the other option and there could potentially be scope on that front, with Stephen Myler out of contract and his 38th birthday coming up this summer. They currently have Gareth Anscombe and Josh Thomas as their other frontline fly-halves. You can read more about Myler's situation here.
