Marland Yarde

Armed with pace and finishing power, Marland Yarde is one of the most exciting wingers in England.

Last season was a breakthrough for Marland as he played nine times for London Irish including eight times in the Aviva Premiership. He suffered a dislocated shoulder against Sale after only the second match of the season and missed three months recuperating.

He came back strongly and finished last season with a brace of tries against Gloucester in the 52 ' 18 rout at Madejski Stadium.

Yarde was a key player for England U20's at the Junior World Championships in 2011 with impressive performances in the semi-final and the final. He was top try scorer during the U20 2012 6 Nations Championship and represented England at the Junior World Championships in South Africa in June.

He has made 16 appearances this season scoring six tries.
