Edinburgh loosehead prop answers Ospreys SOS

Ospreys have announced the signing of Scotland international prop Darryl Marfo, who arrives due to an unprecedented injury crisis at the Liberty Stadium.

The 29-year-old front-row brings with him a wealth of experience having played for both Harlequins and Bath in the Premiership, and London Scottish, London Welsh and Ealing Trailfinders in the Championship.

More recently, Marfo played for Edinburgh in the PRO14 after joining the Scottish side in 2017. He made his international debut for Scotland against Samoa in 2017.

Marfo will provide much needed strength in depth in the loosehead position in the squad and will be with Ospreys until the end of the season.

Ospreys have four props sidelined with injuries to Gareth Thomas (knee) Rhodri Jones (shoulder), Tom Botha (lower leg) and Rhys Henry (shoulder).
