The Scarlets have brought in Hadleigh Parkes from Auckland.

Parkes, 27, plays in the centres and has turned out for Hurricanes, Blues and the Southern Kings in Super Rugby. Scarlets boss Wayne Pivac said: "It's great to see Hadleigh arrive in West Wales and join us here at Parc y Scarlets.

"Hadleigh will add some strength and depth to the backline having played Super Rugby in both South Africa and New Zealand as a midfield back and outside back. Hadleigh, at 27 years of age, will bring leadership qualities to the team having previously captained sides in New Zealand.

"I've worked with Hadleigh for two years, he's a well-rounded player who'll bring a lot to the squad both on and off the field."
