All four spent time at Old Bath Road while growing their careers at London Irish, scrum-half Caolan Englefield featuring 10 times in the 2021/22 National One campaign.
He starts on the bench for the All Blacks clash along with prop Tarek Haffar, who scored two tries in five games across that campaign and the following one.
He was also named National One Player of the Week following an outstanding display at Rosslyn Park in February 2022, where Rams ended the hosts’ 19-match winning run at The Rock.

Starting at The Rec are wing Ollie Hassell-Collins – who featured in a pre-Covid Titans game at Barnes – and flanker Tom Pearson, the latter spending a week on loan before being called up as a last-minute pick for the Exiles at Exeter Chiefs in 2021.
Pearson was named man-of-the-match following an astonishing 25-tackle count as Irish won for the first time that season, then Titans coach Rob Dyer admitting it was ‘a shame’ he had jumped so seamlessly from a potential Rams 2nd XV debut to a Premiership stand-out and latterly a future international!
