Club: Celtic Warriors
Caps: 5

The New Zealander-turned-Welshman now has the opportunity to cement a place at international level after serving his qualification period and overcoming injury.

Parker was brought to Wales by previous national coach Graham Henry and after four years with Pontypridd, the Celtic Warrior has emerged as a Dragon of great promise.

A broken arm put paid to his hopes of his establishing himself last year but form and fitness now seem to be in the coach's favour.
