NEWPORT Gwent Dragons have signed Carmarthen Quins centre Rhys Williams on loan because of their midfield injury crisis.
The 26-year-old came through the Scarlets Academy before going on to play professionally in France for Nevers.
Williams signed for the Quins in 2013 and scored 12 tries in his first season with the club. He played at inside centre last weekend when British and Irish Cup holders Leinster A were turned over in Carmarthen.
The Dragons are currently without Pat Leach (knee), Tyler Morgan (knee), Jack Dixon (wrist) and Ross Wardle (knee) while wing Tom Prydie, who has been covering at 13, is with the Wales squad.
They signed Ospreys centre Ben John on loan in September but he suffered a hamstring strain against the Scarlets.
