Lock Grant Gilchrist, a product of the club’s Academy system, joined the capital club ahead of the 2010/11 season after impressing as part of the Scotland age-grade set-up.

He made 23 appearances in his debut season and the 2013/14 PRO12 fixture against the Dragons marked his milestone 50th cap for the club.
