Prop joins former boss at Worcester
Powerhouse prop Adam Black has agreed a two-year deal to move to Worcester from Magners League outfit the Dragons.
Black has made a record number of appearances - and was the first player in the history of Celtic League rugby to reach 100 appearances.
However Black will now team up with former boss Mike Ruddock at Sixways.
Ruddock signed Black from Sale while at Ebbw Vale and offered the loosehead a contract with the Dragons when Welsh rugby split into regions six years ago.
And Black admitted he was relishing the chance to work with former Wales coach Ruddock once again.
"I have been playing Magners League rugby now for six years, but his was an opportunity to come back and one I couldn't pass up," he said.
"This is the chance to get back into the Guinness Premiership and work under Mike Ruddock once again - it is something I am relishing.
"Mike was really good for me when I came to Wales. I'm from London originally and I turned up at Wales and didn't know anyone or anything. Mike and his wife were both really welcoming and made me feel at home, showed me around the place and helped me settle in really well.
"The chance to play in the Guinness Premiership again really excites me. The way that the league is marketed and run makes me want to be a part of it. As a player I feel I am a better player now, I have the experience that I know can help Worcester along."
