Cardiff Blues have signed Bristol flanker Olly Robinson on a long-term contract for next season.
Robinson, son of former England and Scotland head coach Andy Robinson, returns to Wales following a loan spell at the Blues earlier this term.
Robinson is now back with Championship club Bristol, but he made a considerable impression during a nine-game stint in Blues colours.
"Olly impressed everybody here while on loan from Bristol, and we are very happy to bring him on board for next season," Blues chief executive Richard Holland said.
"With so many Wales internationals in our back-row he will give us real strength in depth, and we look forward to welcoming him back."
Robinson said: "I absolutely loved the last two months being with Cardiff Blues. It was brilliant to be playing so much in a great league and with a great bunch of boys so I'm delighted to be offered the chance to come back.
"To compete and learn from the likes of Sam Warburton and Ellis Jenkins is a really big driver for me and if we are all pushing each other then that's all the better for both us as players and the club."
