Biography: After a dodgy start to his union career Iestyn is looking more and more like an accomplished inside centre for Wales. When thing's didn't go well for the former Leeds Rhino, as always he came in for a lot of flack due to his big money move to Cardiff.

He should never have been thrown into international rugby so early by Graham Henry, and consequently had a nightmare debut in defeat to Argentina.

The rest of that season he failed to get to grips with union, although even behind a struggling Cardiff pack he still produced the occasional moment of brilliance, although those moments were far outweighed by moments of madness and far too many aimless kicks.

However after much criticism Harris began to adapt to union, or perhaps the players around him began to adapt to him.
