Bedford forward agrees new 12-month deal

Former Northampton forward Alex Rae has agreed a new 12-month deal to remain with Bedford Blues. Rae, who can play in the second row or back row, was a key man in Bedford's push to the play-off semi-finals - where the Blues were only denied 23-22 by Worcester. And the 25-year-old Rae, who joined the Blues in 2009 from the Saints, has signed on for the 2011/12 season. Rae is a graduate of the Worcester academy, while he previously spent time on loan at Nottingham.
