Western Force have released Sias Ebersohn from his contract, allowing the fly-half to return to his native South Africa.

Ebershohn, 26, joined the Force from the Bloemfontein-based Cheetahs ahead of the 2013 Super Rugby season, since when he has played 43 matches and scored 212 points in his three seasons based in Perth.

"The Force identified the need to inject additional experience into its young backline, which coincided with an opportunity for Ebersohn to return to South Africa," the franchise said in a statement. "Having already signed Jono Lance for next season, the club is currently in the process of recruiting players that will provide the team with that experience."
