Ulster fullback Adam D'Arcy has agreed a new two-year deal at Ravenhill.

The 25-year-old Australian, who is Irish qualified, moved north last summer for a trial following a stint with Sydney club Manly.

"I'm very grateful to Ulster for giving me a chance on a one year contract this year. I've enjoyed my time here so far and think I've learned a lot and experienced a lot. I'm really looking forward to the next two years," D'Arcy said.

Ulster director of rugby David Humphreys added: "We brought in Adam last summer as an unknown prospect but he has certainly proved himself this season and has become an important member of our team.

"If we want to compete at the highest level we need depth and quality in our squad and we feel that Adam adds just that to our line-up."

Meanwhile, Ulster fullback Jamie Smith has joined Newport-Gwent Dragons. The youngster has represented Ireland at Under-21 level and has agreed a three-year contract at Rodney Parade.
