Sam Warburton out in cold as Cardiff Blues kick-off pre-season

As revealed exclusively in The Rugby Paper last Sunday, will not be available for the ' friendly game against this Friday.
The captain, and only player on a central contract, is the victim of the dispute between the regions and the WRU who are yet to agree a new participation agreement.
Blues backs coach Paul John said: “Unfortunately we haven't been able to pick Sam.
“But he's been a big part of training . . . and fingers crossed they will hopefully get it sorted and he can start playing.”
