Newcastle sign London Welsh centre

Newcastle have signed London Welsh centre Nick Reynolds on a short-term deal until the end of the season.
The 27-year-old will train with his new team-mates today and despite being born in Wales and having formerly played Wales U20s level, the centre is English-qualified.
Reynolds previously represented Scarlets and played 31 Pro 12 games and a further five in the Heineken Cup before joining London Welsh in the summer of 2014.
During the Exiles' single season in the Premiership he made 18 starts and scored four tries and last season he amassed five tries in 19 outings in the Championship.
Newcastle Falcons director of rugby Dean Richards said: “Nick is an experienced centre who was available at the right time for us.
“He is English-qualified, he has a lot going for him and we have an extended opportunity now to have a close look at him during the back half of this season.”
The move comes days after prop Ben Cooper left London Welsh to rejoin Bedford Blues and given the club's financial situation, Exiles fans could be fearful a player exodus may commence.
