Experienced All Black commits to London Irish

London Irish have been given a major boost ahead of the 2016-17 season with the news that double World Cup-winning prop Ben Franks has committed his future to the club.

Capped 45 times by the All Blacks, the 32-year-old joined Irish on a three-year deal from Super Rugby side Hurricanes last summer, and is itching to help the club bounce back to the Premiership.
