Transfer RumoursWednesday, 16 February 2022 at 13:06
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."

- Jordie Barrett over Damian de Allende is far from being correct. The hype around Dupont is also overreaching, he's probably 4th in the world and has been since the 2023 WC. He also avoids certain matchups which is strange. The rest of the list is pretty good apart from minor subjective biases.JasonMarlow16-09-2026
