GODMAN JOINS LONDON SCOTTISH

18th May 2012, 02:23pm

Scotland fly-half Phil Godman has signed for London Scottish after leaving Edinburgh.

The 29-year-old, who has 23 caps for Scotland, began his professional career with Newcastle Falcons before moving to Edinburgh in 2004.

Godman was Scotland's first-choice playmaker in 2009, but injury means his most recent cap was awarded in March 2010.

He proved his ability remains by kicking a match-winning drop-goal as Edinburgh beat Racing Metro in Paris en route to the Heineken Cup semi-final.

"I'm excited to be joining a club with such a prestigious history," Godman said. "Obviously, with its Scottish heritage, it was a definite attraction for me. After a few injuries recently, I'm looking forward to kick-starting my career and getting on the pitch for London Scottish."
