Henson issues apology
19 January 2009
Centre Henson felt it necessary to issue a personal apology, while number eight Andy Powell, Rhys Thomas and Jonathan Thomas were also rebuked and offered apologies after admitting to "varying degrees of regrettable conduct".
Scrum-half Mike Phillips and full-back Lee Byrne were also questioned by head coach Warren Gatland and team manager Alan Phillips about the incident, which took place 24 hours after the RBS 6 Nations champions' 23-15 victory over England at the Millennium Stadium.
"They have all been warned that their various levels of involvement in events which took place will be taken into account in future if they are party to any incidents where misconduct is apparent by any squad members," read a statement on the Welsh Rugby Union's official website.
"The head coach and team manager reminded all the players that their presence in the city centre exposed them to situations where their conduct was under close scrutiny and their behaviour should have reflected that."
Henson, Rhys Thomas and Jonathan Thomas did not play in the match with England.
