Wallabies lock Will Skelton joins Saracens

Saracens have bolstered their second row stock with the signing of Australian international Will Skelton on a short-term deal.
The monster lock, who will move to the Allianz Park with immediate effect, has been capped by the Wallabies 18 times and recently captained an Australian XV against the French Barbarians.
“We’re delighted to be able to bring a player of Will’s calibre into the group,” said director of rugby Mark McCall.
“He is an immensely talented rugby player with vast experience for a 24-year old tight-five forward. It’s no secret that we have been running low on a few bodies in the second-row department.
“But we made it very clear that we wouldn’t compromise on quality when looking to add to our squad. In Will, we have a player who will certainly have an important role to play in our group over the next few months.”
