Went along to the Carmarthen Athletic v Whitland game at the weekend. While Athletic won, for me, the stand out individuals were from Whitland and while I was pleased to see Llyr Griffiths, the man I am on a one man promotional campaign for, perform well I was particularly impressed by Scott Newton and James Stephenson and would be interested to hear if these are players you can see developing to play at Pro12 level?

Llyr hasn't played for Llanelli lately although I saw him a couple of times earlier in the season and he looked powerfull with good hands. Didn't look all that quick for a back rower and may have benefitted if he had played 8 in between Nic and Dan, two really mobile scavengers. Has he been injured recently?
I presume Scott Newton is Dan's brother.
What positions do he and James Stephenson play in?

Llyr has been back playing for Cardigan. He was dual registered with Cardigan and llanelli at the outset of this season. I guess for his development Whitland is a better place to be. Generally plays 8 as you say.
 
Scott is Dan's brother (nice to see Dan there on Saturday) plays 10 but can play 15 too I believe - but other than Saturday I havent seen him play.
 
James plays at 13 or 15, and I think has played for Carms Quins. Again new to me but looked to have something.
