Romain Gardiole has been appointed new club kit man to replace Christian Cozza, who announced his retirement after 15 years at the club.

Trained by 'Couscous', he arrived at the club in 2016 when the Dragons launched a U19 team and spent 3 seasons at the club's Academy kit man.

He joined the French team in 2021 and took part in the World Cup in England last November.

Romain Gardiole is now back at the club as the new kit man of the Dragons.

Romain Gardiole : "I'm very happy to be back at the Dragons, the club of my heart. I would like to thank Bernard and Steve for giving me the opportunity to live my dream every day! I also want to thank Couscous for all his help during my years with the Academy. I will work hard to fulfill the club's expectations with the aim of returning to Wembley and Old Trafford."
