Samoan lock Opeta Palepoi has completed a move to Glasgow Warriors following the closure of Border Reivers.
Palepoi, 31, said: "I always wanted to stay in Scotland if I could because I love being here.

"There is a great set-up here and a good bunch of boys, everyone is really looking forward to what should be a positive season for us."

Palepoi, who has won 45 caps for Samoa and played in two World Cups, moved to the Borders from Harlequins in 2005.

He will be reunited with former Netherdale colleagues Kelly Brown, Ed Kalman and Richie Vernon at Firhill.
