Rob, who has made over 300 professional appearances for Wasps, Bath and latterly Sale Sharks moves back into Steve Diamond’s squad to bolster the Sharks’ front row options as the club looks to challenge for its first Gallagher Premiership title since 2006.

Commenting on the announcement, Sale Sharks Director of Rugby Steve Diamond said: “We have brought Rob back in as a precautionary measure, he was outstanding for us over four seasons and understands how we play to a tee.

“As we approach the business end of the season, we don’t want to get caught out with a lack of options in our pack and Rob will bring a huge amount of experience with him.”
