Murphy & Chuter to face Saracens in Bermuda?

Speculation is mounting that Tigers captain Geordan Murphy and veteran hooker George Chuter are set to play for an "International XV" against Saracens in Bermuda this May.  England international Shaun Perry and former Premiership stars Simon Taylor and Gcobani Bobo are also set to star in the match arranged for Bermuda's National Stadium.

The Tigers pair have been linked with the XV as well as taking part in a 7s competition the next day by the Bermudian media.

Saracens have already confirmed that they will be touring the island this summer with the intention to raise $50,000 for the Beyond Rugby charity and the Bermuda Rugby youth section.
