Wales head coach Wayne Pivac has added Ulster hooker Bradley Roberts in the squad for their autumn international campaign.

Born in Durban, South Africa, Roberts went on to make his senior debut with Ulster. He qualifies to play for Wales through his paternal grandmother, who was from Llandysul.

The 25-year-old is included in the squad as a replacement for Ken Owens, who is sidelined with a back injury.

Wales will kick-start their autumn international campaign on 30th October with a clash against New Zealand followed by clashes against South Africa, Fiji and Australia on 6th, 14th and 20th November respectively.
