The camp will be held at Bisham Abbey from October 28-31 and sees prop Brantingham (pictured) and winger Ward recalled following their summer tour to South Africa.

Front-row forward Thompson is called up for the first time, the Alnick RFC and Gosforth Academy player making his senior debut for the Falcons in last weekend’s 26-0 win over Heriot’s.
