Josh Turnbull

Josh Turnbull spent seven years at his home region, Scarlets, before switching to Cardiff in 2014, after more than 100 of appearances for the Llanelli-based region.

The utility forward has been a dependable and consistent performer for the Blue and Blacks and was appointed club captain in 2021.

The former Cardiff Player of the Year made his senior international debut in the 2011 Six Nations clash against Scotland and has been in and out of the international camp ever since.

Only Connacht's John Muldoon has made more URC appearances than Turnbull, and his impressive form continued in 21/22, where he would be named the Peter Thomas Player of the Season.
