“He is a powerful front rower who will add some real punch up front for us and get us on the front foot.
“He isn’t available this week due to prior work commitments, but he is raring to go and to get stuck in for the back end of the season.
“He has been selected for Jamaica and is keen to show the international selectors what he can do.
“He bolsters our pack at a vital part of the season as we approach the final few league games and potential play-off series.
“We still have hopes of finishing top, but we are dependent on other results going our way now.”
