Newport Gwent Dragons are delighted to announce they have completed the signing of lock Adam Jones from the Scarlets. The 6’7’’ second row is a welcome addition to Head Coach Paul Turner’s squad and will link up with the region for pre season training which began in earnest for The Dragons last Monday. Jones made 109 appearances for the Scarlets and weighing in at 115kg will make an impact in the boiler house of the second row. Speaking on the signing Head Coach Paul Turner told the South Wales Argus, "He is a quality player and I knew him from his time in
"He came through the system, captaining Wales Under 19s, his knowledge of forward play is good, he's a ball carrier and he can run a line-out.
"It was a tough call whether we went overseas for a lock, but we have remained true to our beliefs that we should develop local players."
