Worcester prop extends Sixways stay
Worcester Warriors prop Darren Morris has signed a new two-year deal with the Guinness Premiership strugglers.
The 33-year-old former Wales and Lions forward arrived at Sixways from Leicester two years ago and has become an integral part of the Warriors' front row.
Morris has been ruled out of the rest of this season after suffering a bicep injury, and is set to undergo surgery this weekend.
Despite the major setback the Welshman has vowed to return to action stronger next season, saying: "I'm really pleased to have signed up, it was always the right decision for me to stay.
"These are exciting times at Warriors and that was a big incentive to agree a deal. It's a fabulous club to be a part of with great supporters.
Frustrating
"I have been very happy with my form this season - it has been right up there. I have been consistent in games and although the injury now is frustrating, I will come back better than before.
"What has been key to my form is my enjoyment. This year I have really enjoyed being a Warrior and the environment around the club.
"Next year is a big season for us and I can hardly wait to play my part in a successful future for the club."
Director of rugby Mike Ruddock added: "I am pleased that Darren has committed himself to the club for the next two years.
"I actually think Darren has played better than I have seen him play for a long time this season and he seems to be enjoying the style of rugby that we're trying to promote.
"Hopefully that will continue to bring the best out of him over the next two years."
