The Sharks’ Breakthrough Player of the Year back in 2008/09, Marc Jones has built on that platform with more than 20 first-team appearances in each of the last three seasons and made 19 alone in the Premiership in 2011/12.
A Wales international throughout the age groups from U16 up to U21, Marc is primarily a No 2 but has also played at seven when needed.
A spell at Sedgley Tigers in 2006/7 enabled him to gain first-team experience and though he made just five appearances for the Sharks the following season, his development was clear and it was inevitable he would make his breakthrough.
Marc added a year to his contract at Sale when extending his deal at the same time as fellow Welshmen Nick Macleod and Dwayne Peel in February 2012.
