New South Wales Waratahs’ openside flanker Jono Jenkins has agreed to join second division rugby union side Narbonne until the end of the season, a source close to the French club said on Monday.

The 26-year-old Jenkins played for Perth-based Western Force for two seasons before joining Super 15 rivals Waratahs earlier this year.

He will join Australian internationals Josh Valentine and Julian Huxley in south-western France.

Narbonne are third from bottom of the Pro D2 after four games.
