Rhys Webb going to the Premiership?

First topic message reminder :

How can this be?. Reported in TRP to be leaving after his DC with the Ospreys runs out. I'd have thought he be re-signed. Presumably opting for the DC in the first place was putting down a marker for a long term Wales career. I thought we'd turned the tide with JD2 coming back and reports of 1/2p wanting to come back. Isn't Charteris he's ding this way too. With Faletau seemingly on the move and Doc dropping anchor too in England aren't we going to have some problems with the elite player code? So much to hope for next year after an injury beset but decent RWC. .

Also, I have found this:-

It is an interesting read, and if anything it looks as though the Welsh players want to stay in Wales, rather than the opposite.

Dowlais I hope you're right for once.

I am right, Dan Biggar has just signed a new DC. This is the phone call I have just had, and they are reporting it on the Ospreys website as well.

"The provision of national dual contracts (NDC) has been adopted for the first time to try and keep key players in Wales. The cost for NDCs is via a 60/40% split between Union and Region and represents the actual time a senior international player spends on national squad duty and with their regional squad. The player is available to the Region for 16 games, including all Welsh derbies plus any league or European play-offs."

Dave as I told you on the other topic, that is not set in stone, I bet you lot would like WRUburton to actually play 16 games for you.
Looking it up both AWJ and Biggar played over 16 games last season, Dan was close to or on 20.
