What a guy. I absolutely love the fact that the Parkes family give their absolute all for every team, culture & family they have been part of, but also take every opportunity to enjoy what Rugby & its surroundings have to offer, away from the white lines. 

Here's a guy that played with broken bones and injuries for the red of Wales and Scarlets, learned the anthem, bought in to the culture & gave his absolute all at every chance. Now enjoying the culture & rugby that Japan has to offer, his journey into pro rugby was different, but I think that's made him the player/guy he is!

Thanks always Links Recruitment, LT Scaffold, TIny Rebel Brewery and JBG Group Electrical
