From former Bath and Gloucester centre Mike Tindall to Northampton Saints fan favourite Ben Foden, RUCK takes a look at a number of high-profile rugby players who now play at a low level.
#5. Tom Varndell – Bury St Edmunds RUFC
National League 2 South Bury St Edmunds RUFC have confirmed the signing of former England international as a coach and player in 2020.
Still the Premiership’s record try-scorer with 92 from 180 appearances, primarily from spells at Leicester and Wasps – two of the most successful clubs in the modern era – the 34-year-old had looked to have played his last game after departing Yorkshire Carnegie.
DID YOU KNOW? In 2019, Varndell travelled to Hong Kong to play for South China Tigers as part of the Global Rapid Rugby series
