Dragons have signed Ospreys prop Cameron Jones on loan and he is set to make his debut in the United Rugby Championship (URC) game against Lions on Sunday at Rodney Parade.
The Gwent region have a loose-head prop injury crisis with Jordan Morris and Dylan Kelleher-Griffiths injured and concerns about Rhodri Jones and Josh Reynolds.
This leaves Argentina's Rodrigo Martinez the only fully fit Dragons number one.
“We’re pleased to be able to bring in Cameron on a short-term loan and our thanks go to Ospreys and Toby Booth for help in facilitating this move that will benefit all parties," said Dragons head coach Dai Flanagan.
“Cameron is highly regarded at Ospreys and will give us much needed depth to our front row with a number of players currently sidelined through injured.”
