Finn joins Baa-Baas

Scotland fly-half Finn Russell has been added to the Barbarians’ squad for Sunday’s fixture against England at Twickenham.

Head coach Pat Lam has also completed his recruitment for the match by adding New Zealand centre Malakai Fekitoa, Newcastle’s Fiji threequarter Josh Matavesi, Falcons flanker Nili Latu and Connacht prop Denis Buckley to the group.

Buckley’s provincial team-mate Bundee Aki, who was due to lead the Barbarians against Eddie Jones’ men, and Charles Piutau have pulled out with respective ankle and Achilles injuries, while Sale fly-half AJ MacGinty has been withdrawn.
