Knights sign two Edinburgh players on short-term loan to boost squad ahead of the Prem Cup

29th October 2024

Ewan Mcvie, 19, and Tom Currie, 20, will be temporarily joining the Knights from Edinburgh Rugby ahead of the Premiership Cup campaign.

McVie, joined the Edinburgh Rugby pro-academy ahead of the 2023/24 season. The second row has featured for Scotland U20s and Heriot’s Rugby in the FOSROC super Series Sprint after playing the majority of his rugby with Edinburgh Accies.

Currie is a back row, who has also competed for Scotland u20’s and joined Edinburgh’s pro academy for the 2023/24 season. Following in brother Matt’s footsteps, Currie impressed while playing school rugby at the city’s Merchiston Castle School.

Both have recently featured in Edinburgh’s A team, including a game against Bath United. And just last weekend, had their first taste of Championship Rugby when Edinburgh A faced Ealing Trailfinders.

Doncaster Knights are very excited about the addition of two exciting young forwards as we turn our attention to the Premiership Cup.
