London Irish Sign New Duo

Georgian international back row Lasha Lomidze is the latest acquisition to London Irish's squad ahead of the 2017/18 season.

Lomidze, 24, who can play at either blindside flanker or No. 8, has played 25 times for Georgia including appearances at the 2015 World Cup where eventual winners New Zealand were their opponents in Pool C.

Melbourne Rebels scrum-half Ben Meehan has also joined London Irish as the club continues to prepare for the 2017/18 Premiership campaign.
 
Meehan, 24, began his professional career with NRL side Melbourne Storm before switching codes in 2013 when he signed for Queensland Reds' Academy.
   
Capped four-times by Australia Under-20s, the Queenslander, who was nominated for the 2013 Australian Under-20s Player of the Year, moved to the Rebels a year later.
