American international Ben Landry to join Ealing Trailfinders

Ealing Trailfinders have announced the signing of back-rower Ben Landry for the 2018/19 season.

The American international heads to Vallis Way for his first spell in English rugby, and has 12 caps for the Eagles after making his debut in 2016. 

On the new signing, Director of Rugby Ben Ward commented: “Ben is a hugely physical player so will add some serious size to our pack. He has shown at international level that he has great quality and we look forward to having him at the club.”

Landry can play at both second-row and in the back-row, and will join the club from Glendale Raptors in Major League Rugby after making a name for himself as an enormous ball carrier which has impressed USA Head Coach Gary Gold.

He will link up with fellow US Eagle Andrew Durutalo in the back-row next season.
