Dragons and Wales hooker Bradley Roberts has announced his decision to retire with immediate effect.
The decision follows after he failed to make sufficient recovery from a back injury.
The 28-year-old made his senior debut with Ulster in 2020 and made a switch to Dragons in 2022. He made 27 appearances for Dragons across two seasons and went on to score seven tries.
He made his debut for Wales in 2021 against South Africa and has featured in five Tests.
“My career has been short but very sweet and I look back at this chapter with massive pride and astonishment," said Roberts to the club's official website.
"I have no doubt it will leave me in good stead for whatever life has in store for. If my life so far is anything to go by, I’m sure it will be very exciting.
“Thank you to Dragons for being my home for the last few seasons. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time in Newport and am excited to see what this group can achieve. I have no doubt that the only way is up and that there is a big future ahead of the club.
“To the fans - thank you so much for the support. I really appreciate it.”
