Tom Cruse: Northampton Saints hooker signs contract extension
Northampton Saints hooker Tom Cruse has signed a contract extension with the Premiership club.He has made nine appearances and was given only his second start in their"We've got a very strong group of hookers at the Club, with everyone learning from each other and driving each other forward," Cruse said.
"That competition is exactly what you want within your squad in every position, so it's really exciting to think about how much we can all grow together as a group and build on what we did last year." Cruse began his career at Sale and had spells with Rotherham and London Irish before a six-year spell with Wasps.
He moved to Scotland last November after Wasps went into administration, but said returning to the Premiership was a "big pull" because he was away from his family in Edinburgh.Director of rugby Phil Dowson said: "We were hugely impressed by Tom when he came into the group midway through the season - impressed by his competitive nature, by his communication skills, by the energy he brings in everything he does, and by the way he drives our standards.
"With Tom signed up alongside the other hookers already in place for the 2023-24 season, we're confident we have one of the strongest and deepest line-ups in that position in the Premiership."
