Myles Thoroughgood signs for Yorkshire Carnegie

Yorkshire have further boosted their squad for this season with the capture of two talented young players from New Zealand.

23-year-old fly-half or full-back Myles Thoroughgood has signed for the remainder of the season from Northland.

Originally from Christchurch, he joined Northland from the Kamo club.

Whilst loosehead prop, he is a former New Zealand U20s player who has impressed in recent years as he has matured in the senior game in New Zealand.

Still only 23, he earned a contract with Otago this season following an impressive debut season with Tasman in the Mitre 10 Cup.

A 1st XV player at Nelson College, his home town, he gained NZ Under-20’s selection for the 2015 Oceania Rugby Junior Championship on Australia's Gold Coast.
