The Cornish Pirates product, who first joined the West Country side as a youngster in 1995, excelled in the Championship and earned representative honours in 2010 when he toured Canada with England Counties before his performances in the 2014/15 season leading to The Rugby Paper naming him the best scrum-half in the Championship.
The scrum-half also helped the Wanderers list the Premiership Rugby A League trophy on two occasions; beating both Gloucester United and Exeter Braves in consecutive years.
