United Rugby Championship: Scarlets sign lock Harvey Cuckson from Bath

Harvey Cuckson came through Worcester Warriors' academy

Scarlets have signed lock Harvey Cuckson on a permanent deal from Bath after two loan spells with the club.

The 22-year-old, who grew up in north Wales, made five United Rugby Championship (URC) appearances for the Llanelli side this season.

The 6ft 7ins forward made an impression after joining during a second-row injury crisis last October.

Interim director of rugby Nigel Davies said: "He came in at short notice ahead of a challenging tour in South Africa. He showed a level of composure and physicality that stood out straight away.
