Argentina hooker spent one season with Gloucester

French club Colomiers have completed the signing of Argentina hooker Matias Cortese from Gloucester. The 26-year-old, who was capped three times by the Pumas, spent just the one season at the Kingsholm club, providing back-up to Scott Lawson. Cortese, who also had spells at Northampton, Biarritz and Bayonne, made just the 13 appearances with Darren Dawidiuk also competing for the No.2 shirt. Cortese will now look to kick-start his career with Colomiers, who have returned to the ProD2 after winning promotion from Federale 1.
