Brian Tuilagi captains London Scottish in their preseason game v Ebbw Vale
Rory Hughes starts for them with Javiah Pohe on the bench.
Pohe looked like a potential world beater during his time in the Academy.

Anyone know of his progress after leaving Tigers?
Juggernaut in the centres but seemed to lack the fitness and work rate from what I remember.

Toby Flood has decided to hang up his boots. Good man, Tobe!! When’s the book due to be published? There’d surely be some honest truths about his time at Tigers and Toulouse. Looking forward to it!

Still be with the Falcons , coaching alongside the talented Dave Walder, and completing his Masters at Cambridge. Maybe the book will need to wait a while!
