Lions players head to England
TRANSFER NEWS: Ealing Trailfinders have signed South African loosehead prop Dylan Smith and two of his former Lions teammates ahead of the 2021/22 season.
Smith parted ways with the Lions in March before joining French club Stade Francais as a medical joker.
He will now start a new chapter in his career in England with Ealing who are in the second-tier Championship.
Smith will be joined by two current Lions players in the form of loose forward Len Massyn and hooker Jan-Henning Campher, who have also signed for Ealing.
