Worcester sign Scotland and Lions international

Worcester Warriors have another big name on their books as they secured the signature of Scotland international Rory Sutherland ahead of next season. 

“It is fantastic news for the club that Rory is joining us at Sixways,” Alan Solomons, Worcester’s Director of Rugby said. 

“He is a terrific rugby player – a big, powerful, abrasive, scrummaging loosehead who really puts himself about.” 

Sutherland said: “I have spoken to many Premiership players over the years and they always talked about how attritional the league is. 

“I knew one day that I wanted to come and sample it for myself. I want to help Worcester become a top side. 

“The goals the coaches discussed with me are very much aligned with my own.”
