Connacht have secured the signature of former New Zealand age-grade international prop Rodney Ah You as a replacement for the retired Robbie Morris.

Significantly, the Irish province have given the ex-Canterbury prospect an 18-month deal which is a break from the Irish Rugby Football Union policy of limiting the westerners to one year deals.

A member of New Zealand's winning Junior World Cup sides in both 2007 and 2008, Ah You is expected in Galway in the next 10 days.

Ah You comes to Connacht after two seasons with New Zealand provincial side Canterbury while the province also have three props on three-month trials, South African Dylan Rogers, Australian Barry Fa'amausili, and St Mary's Rob Sweeney.
