Australia international Kurtley Beale has joined Western Force until the end of the current Super Rugby Pacific season, the Perth-based outfit announced on Saturday.

The versatile 35-year-old, who has played 95 times for the Wallabies, joins the Force after returning to the field for the first time in 14 months in mid-March for club side Randwick, a month after being found not guilty of rape by a Sydney court.
