In demand Johnathon Ford signs extended deal with Toulouse

Ford made three NRL appearances before moving to France, where he became a standout player in the Championship.
Several clubs in Super League and the Championship were interested in the Cook Islands international, but he is made up to have signed a new contract with Toulouse.
He said: “I am very grateful to have the opportunity to continue to improve myself as a player and a person in this great club that is the TO XIII.

Toulouse chairman Bernard Sarrazain said: “It is a great satisfaction to keep Johno in our ranks.
