Michael Cusack joined Glasgow Warriors from Doncaster Knights in 2011 and signed a new three-year deal which will keep him at Scotstoun until 2016.

The former Leeds forward was recommended to the club by one-time Edinburgh coach Lynn Howells, who worked with him at Doncaster.

On Mike's re-signing, Gregor Townsend said: “To have secured the services of Mike is great news for the club. He is developing a formidable reputation as one of the best tight-heads in the game and to have him here at Scotstoun for the long-term is terrific news.

“He contributes well in defence and I’ve also been impressed by his handling ability.

“With Test players Moray Low, Jon Welsh and Ed Kalman also able to play tighthead, Mike knows he has to continually work hard to win his place in the side. This competition can only drive up the standards for the whole club.”

The prop said: “This was an easy decision for me to make. There is a great buzz around Scotstoun and we’re building an exceptionally strong squad.

“I want to help this club achieve success and that means committing to the direction the club are going.

“I know that there is always going to be competition for places here at the Warriors, but that can only improve me as a player and help the club.”

    Very impressive first half of the season from Cusack. He's made a big contribution to the improvements in our set-piece.
