Jordan Coghlan pens new Nottingham deal

Nottingham Rugby have announced the re-signing of flanker Jordan Coghlan for a further year.

"Jordan is one of our most dynamic and explosive players," commented head coach Ian Costello.

"He's had a mixed season, starting the season strongly, featuring very prominently in our best run of form pre-Christmas. His season was interrupted with injury and concussion but has come back into impressive form in recent weeks.

"His athletic abilities make him genuine threat with ball in hand and he has a big influence on our defensive mind-set, so I'm delighted that he's committed his future here for another season and I think there's still a lot more to come from him.”

The 24 year-old Irishman will return to The Bay for a second season, after joining the Green & Whites from PRO12 giants Munster last summer, going on to make 18 appearances in league and cup during the current campaign, scoring one try.
