Leading try-scorer Millard signs new Cardiff deal

Harri Millard has been with his boyhood club Cardiff since 2016

Harri Millard's impressive run of form has seen him sign a long-term contract with Cardiff.

The versatile back has made 59 appearances for the club, scoring 16 tries.

Eight of those tries have come this season, making Millard the joint leading try scorer in the United Rugby Championship (URC).

"I'm really glad to have signed a new contract with Cardiff. This is obviously my home club and we have a great group of players and coaching staff building together," said Millard.

"We also have the best support at the Arms Park so I am really looking forward to the next few seasons and playing my part as we continue to grow and develop as a group."

The 28-year-old was initially released by Cardiff at the end of the 2022-23 campaign, but secured another deal.

He has now signed a long-term contract which head coach Matt Sherratt said is just reward for his "great work ethic".

"He has come through our system and has taken his second opportunity with us with both hands," said Sherratt.

"The most exciting part of Harri staying is the fact that we have only seen glimpses so far of his talent. He has begun to show that with this run of form this season.

Millard follows fellow homegrown talents Liam Belcher, Teddy Williams, Alun Lawrence, Ben Thomas and Cam Winnett in re-signing for Cardiff.
