Johnny Williams & Northcote-Green sign contract extensions with London Irish

Johnny Williams’ journey with London Irish continues, the explosive centre has pledged his future to the Exiles by inking fresh terms with his boyhood club.

Playing mini and junior rugby for Redingensians RFC before joining the Exiles’ academy set-up aged 14, Williams played a key role in Irish’s road to promotion from the Championship last term, and the Berkshire born back is focused on establishing himself in the Exiles first XV.

The club also confirms that in-form flanker Max Northcote-Green has also put pen to paper on a new deal.

The 23-year-old joined Irish from Bath ahead of the 2016/17 season and wasted no time in introducing himself to the Exiles faithful, scoring three tries in seven appearances before injury curtailed his campaign.

Northcote-Green made five appearances for the Exiles this term and is keen to cement his position in the pack.
