Wales international prop Rhodri Jones will become a Dragon after signing a deal to move to Rodney Parade on a long-term contract.
Jones – capped 21 times by his country – will join the Men of Gwent from Ospreys and follows Bradley Roberts and JJ Hanrahan in agreeing terms to move to the region from next season.
The 30-year-old loosehead – who stands 6ft 3in tall and weighs 18st 3lb - made his Wales debut in 2012 and adds more valuable experience to the squad being assembled at Dragons for next season.
Dean Ryan, Director of Dragons Rugby, said: “We really pleased that Rhodri joins us from next season as he will give depth to the squad we are building and really strengthen our front row options."
