Moseley bolster their back line
Moseley are pleased to announce the signings of George Watkins and Darren Hudson on a loan agreement from Bristol Rugby until the end of the season.
Bristol’s record league try scorer George Watkins has spent most of his rugby career at the West Country club. Following a period at Cardiff Blues in 2014 he returned to his hometown team for his sixth season in blue and white. A product of their academy he has now made over 100 1st XV appearances. During his time at Bristol the wings strike rate averages a try in every two games played.
Ireland under 20 international Darren Hudson brings versatility and a physical presence to Moseley’s backline, being able to play in both wing and full back positions. He began his career in the Leinster Academy and made 15 appearances in the Pro 12 league. Moseley will be looking for Darren to show some of the same skills that brought him a hat trick of tries on the U20 stage against Italy.
Kevin Maggs, Director of Rugby at Moseley said, “I am delighted to have George and Darren as additions to our squad. They both have the capacity to make a significant impact for us and add experience to an already formidable attacking back line”.
