LEICESTER Tigers have signed winger Ben Woollett on a short-term deal after the financial collapse of Jersey Reds. The 26-yearold was part of Jersey’s Championship-winning side last season.
Australian Woollett said: “This has obviously been an incredibly difficult week but I’m really grateful to Tigers for welcoming me in and giving me this opportunity.” Tigers head coach Dan
McKellar said: “We’re really pleased to be able to give Ben an opportunity off the back of a really sad and difficult time.”
