Thomas Young to leave Cardiff for Dragons. His move impacts Welsh rugby.

Thomas Young, the 32-year-old Wales flanker, is set to leave Cardiff for Dragons on a long-term deal starting next season. This move comes as fellow Wales back row Taine Basham is moving to the Arms Park. Dragons boss Filo Tiatia expects Young to be a mentor for young loose forwards. Young has had an interesting career journey, previously joining Gloucester and Wasps. Despite Dragons' current position in the United Rugby Championship, they hope Young will improve their standing.
