- The Reds have bolstered their forward stocks with the signing of former Brumbies lock Adam Wallace-Harrison on a two-year deal.
The 30-year-old began his career in Queensland before making the Wallabies squad while with the Brumbies and now returns to Australia having spent three years playing in Japan.
"Adam can play at six or lock and is a lineout organiser, so he gives us versatility as well as that specialist skill set," Reds boss Ewen McKenzie said. "The set piece is crucial so you need to have that covered. He's committed to the Reds for two years so his experience will be invaluable in our squad development plans."
- Utility back Scott Staniforth has signed a new one-year deal with the Western Force, ending speculation about his playing future. The former Wallaby, 32, resisted overtures from other franchises in order to remain in Perth, having returned there in 2010 following a stint in Japan.
- Cardiff Blues have secured added forward cover with the signing of Doncaster duo Bryn Griffiths and Tom Davies. Both players are Welsh qualified, with lock Griffiths having played for the Dragons and Wales at Under-18 and Under-21 level. Prop Davis is a former U18 cap.
