London Irish add Australia lock Adam Coleman to ranks

London Irish have continued their flurry of major signings to strengthen their return to the top flight by recruiting Australia international Adam Coleman.

Coleman, a 6ft 8in, 19.2stones second row, has won 31 caps and has been an ever-present for the Wallabies over the last two and a half years.

The 27-year-old will line-up with Irish for the 2019-20 Gallagher Premiership season after this autumn’s World Cup.

“London Irish have got big ambitions and as well as a good squad already in place, they are making some exciting signings,” Coleman said.

The Exiles have also signed the likes of New Zealand World Cup winner Waisake Naholo, Sean O’Brien, Sekope Kepu and Paddy Jackson.
