Arrows re-sign starting prop Isaac Salmon

The Toronto Arrows have re-signed tighthead prop Isaac Salmon for the 2023 Major League Rugby season. He returns to the Canadian side from New Zealand after playing for Tasman Mako in the National Provincial Championship during recent months.

Salmon quickly established himself as the first choice No3 for the Arrows in his first campaign abroad. The 26-year-old appeared in all 16 games this past season, including 12 starts, and proved a formidable competitor at both the set piece and in the loose.

Toronto has confirmed three props in their senior squad. Salmon is joined by Canadian international Tyler Rowland on the tighthead side. Another tighthead, Denver Fatt, was selected in the Collegiate Draft. Canadian-eligible Connor Grindal is the only loosehead named thus far.
