After his release from the Highlanders, 39 year old former All Black Brad Thorn will once again ply his trade in Europe and, according to reputable journalist, Ben Coles, Welford Road and Leicester Tigers will be his destination.
After a trophy laden career in both Union and League, Thorn is regarded as one of the best locks of the professional era and, despite his advancing age, will definitely offer the Tigers a solid option in the engine room, especially since it was confirmed that Steve Mafi has left the Tigers for a move to the Western Force.
