Sale Sharks lock Bryn Evans has agreed a one-year contract extension to keep him at the AJ Bell Stadium until 2020.
The 34-year-old twice-capped All Black joined Sale from French club Biarritz in 2015 and recently made his 100th appearance for the club.
Sale director of rugby Steve Diamond said: "Bryn's done a fantastic job since arriving four years ago.
"He has a tremendous pedigree, is a great organiser, and we're glad that he'll be with us for an extra year."
