Tom Mercey: Has been handed a new deal at Northampton

Sky Bet

Tom Mercey, Anders Mogensen and Ross McMillan have all agreed deals to remain at Northampton Saints.

Prop Mercey has made 38 appearances for the club since joining from Saracens, while hooker McMillan initially arrived at Franklin's Gardens from Birmingham & Solihull this season on a short-term deal.

Winger Morgensen, 20, has yet to appear for the Saints first team since coming through the club's academy - instead gaining experience at Cambridge and Moseley.

And director of rugby Jim Mallinder believes the trio each has a bright future ahead of them.

"We need players who can contribute to the squad and this is why we've extended the contracts for all three players," he said.

"Tom has been a regular part of the first-team squads throughout his time at the club and we know that he can deliver good performances on a regular basis.

"Anders and Ross may not have had their first-team opportunities, but they have both built up their experience in The Championship and are very eager to show what they can do in the black, green and gold."
