Marc Stcherbina has signed for Newport Gwent Dragons on a one-year deal from regional rivals Cardiff Blues.
Australian Stcherbina, 31, made 52 appearances in three years at the Arms Park, but a serious shoulder problem limited his impact last season. Stcherbina sustained the injury at the start of last season before surgery ruled the centre out of action for five months.

Dragons Coach Paul Turner said: "We're delighted to get Marc. We tend to lack a bit of experience and direction and Marc will bring us that.

"He's a knowledgeable guy and he will add to our mix. Australian back-play has always been at the forefront of world rugby and he will help the youngsters here as well."

Stcherbina began his career with New South Wales Waratahs before moving to Biarritz, then to England for a successful spell with Northampton.
