    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 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.

    BBC Wales understands the alleged assault took place outside the Tiger Tiger club.

    Blues chief executive Richard Holland said: "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

    Tom James is a brat, he walked out on the Wales squad before having not been selected. He has a pretty bad rep.

    He's also not that good. Guy has serious 'notions' of his talent (or lack there of).
