After beating the Waratahs on Sunday afternoon, the Melbourne Rebels have received a further boost with Tom English, Sam Jeffries and Ben Meehan extending their commitments to the club. The trio have all played key roles in the Melbourne Rebels starting the 2016 Super Rugby season with a club record four wins and two losses before this weekend’s bye round. “We’re thrilled to have re-signed three quality players and individuals to keep Tom (English), Sam (Jeffries) and Ben (Meehan) at the Rebels organisation for years to come,” Rebels General Manager Rugby Operations Baden Stephenson said. “The three players are valued members of the organisation and epitomise the Rebels with hard work, belief in the program and drive to achieve consistent high standards and results. “The re-commitment of these three players is not just another vote of confidence in the club’s vision and stability but a clear message that Melbourne is a serious Rugby destination.” Former Sydney Univ
