Bath Rugby announce the signing of England International and British & Irish Lion Lewis Moody on a three-year deal. As one of the most abrasive, dynamic and destructive flankers in the country, the 31-year-old will join the West Country team in the summer having completed many years as a Leicester Tiger.
“I am really looking forward to an exciting new challenge at this stage of my career,†said Lewis. “Bath Rugby’s values perfectly suit my own, it is a great City and Club, with a real family feel and a close knit and impressive squad.
“I have always known that if I was ever going to leave Leicester, the only club I would consider in the UK would be Bath. They play an exciting brand of rugby and having spent time with both Steve Meehan and Nick Blofeld I am sure that there are exciting years ahead.â€
A tireless flanker of the highest order, Lewis has arguably been one of the stand out players this Six Nations and during his England career has notched up an impressive 59 international caps.
Well known for his professionalism and his apparent lack of pain and self-conservation, he will dive in where others fear to tread and it is this style that Bath’s Head Coach Steve Meehan believes will be such an asset to the team.
“Lewis is a proven winner and he brings vast experience, a fierce determination and great attitude with him,†said Meehan.
“Adapting to our style of play shouldn’t be a problem and we expect him to help create more opportunities and momentum up front.â€[/b]
