Richard Palframan: London Irish extend tight-head prop's contract

Richard Palframan joined London Irish from Natal Sharks in 2012

London Irish tight-head prop Richard Palframan has extended his contract with the club for a further two years.

The 22-year-old, who has not played this season due to a serious hamstring injury, joined the Exiles in 2012 from Super Rugby side Natal Sharks.

"We're delighted to keep hold of a player we've been developing for the last couple of years," assistant coach Clark Laidlaw told BBC Sport.

Palframan made his Premiership debut for Irish last season against Sale.
