Three more years at London Irish for Blair Cowan

Scotland International Blair Cowan has committed his long term future to London Irish by penning a new deal with the Exiles that will keep him with the club until 2018.
He said: “I have really enjoyed my time so far at London Irish and was stoked to extend that by a further two seasons. London Irish has opened doors to international rugby and I believe the Club will constantly improve my game. There are exciting times ahead for London Irish and I'm keen to be a part of that.”
Exiles Director of Brian Smith said: “Blair has been outstanding since first arriving at London Irish. His work ethic in training and on the park sets a great example and he is fast becoming a real leader in the squad. He has made the step up to international rugby seamlessly and fully deserves to be playing at that level.”
Forwards Coach Glenn Delaney added: “Blair has all the defensive and attacking attributes a coach is looking for in an openside flanker. He carries strongly, defends well and is fantastic over the ball. He is a player who is continually developing and one we believe can keep getting better.”
