Jerry Yanuyanutawa is a Fijian international prop who joined Glasgow on a one year deal in July 2013, signed for a further season in 2014 and again for 2015-16.

He played 21 times for London Irish.

Jerry also played for ACT Brumbies. Interestingly, he started as a back row man but was persuaded to play as a prop by England World Cup winner, Trevor Woodman, whilst he was with Sydney University.

On joining Glasgow, Jerry said: “I’m very excited about joining Glasgow and I’m looking forward to playing in the RaboDirect PRO12 and Heieneken Cup next season.

"I’ve spoken to Niko (Matawalu) about the move and he says it’s a good club, with a great bunch of boys and a good coaching system. He’s really enjoying it so I’m sure I will too.

“It was good to win the IRB Pacific Nations Cup for the first time with Fiji last month and signing for Glasgow has capped off a good year for me.

“I’ve always wanted to play in the Heineken Cup and I didn’t get that opportunity last season with London Irish. It’s the pinnacle of European Rugby, like being in Super Rugby in the southern hemisphere. To get the opportunity to play against Toulon in the Heineken Cup next season would be unreal.”
