Director of Rugby Pat Lam said: “Tiff and John are quality men who have unfortunately had injuries which has hindered their progress. We wanted to give them more time to continue their development. They’re both unbelievable team men who have really added to our environment. We’re looking forward to seeing them flourish with a run of games.
“For us to be the team we are striving to be, significant depth in the front row is crucial. Max and Yann are experienced performers who are well liked and contribute massively on and off the field. They’re quality players and we’re delighted to keep them onboard.”
