Prop Palframan renews deal at Newcastle until 2027
Newcastle Falcons prop Richard Palframan has agreed a new two-year deal with the Premiership club. The 31-year-old has made 51 appearances for the Falcons since joining from Worcester Warriors in 2021, with the South Africa-born forward having previously played for London Irish and London Scottish. Director of rugby Steve Diamond told the club website: "Palf has done a great job for us on the tight-head side, and I was always keen to extend his time with the club. "He's a fantastic character who offers a lot to us on and off the field, and I'm glad that he will be with us as we look to move the club forward over the next few years." Palframan said it was "a privilege" to be part of Newcastle and said he was "grateful for the chance to keep doing what I love, playing alongside a great bunch of lads and working with the fantastic staff". He added: "The club has been through some tough times over the last few years but it really feels like we're in a better place now, and heading in the right direction." Palframan follows fellow front-rower Murray McCallum in agreeing a new contract in the last 24 hours. McCallum signed a new two-year deal on Tuesday. Why have Townsend's Scotland had hex on England?
