"I have been really impressed with what I have seen in pre-season and his early performances in our Under 19's side. He is strong and quick and I know he will benefit from training full time with us. This is a great opportunity for him and I know he is really excited about joining us."
Rugby General Manager Kris Radlinski commented;
" Dom has worked really hard and gone out of his way to try and impress the Coaching Staff at the Club in pre-season and deserves this chance. He has worked hard on his game and has shown outstanding levels of commitment. Dom has already settled in quickly alongside his more recognisable team mates and is very comfortable in their company."

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan
