Bid for a signed Leicester Tigers 'poppy' shirt and help the Royal British Legion's Poppy Appeal.

Starting from today (Friday), we are auctioning the shirts worn by the starting XV in the poppy fixture against London Irish at Welford Road last Saturday.

Each player has signed the front and back of his shirt and it will be sold to the highest bidder to benefit the annual Poppy Appeal.

The auction begins today (Friday) with the shirts belonging to Marcos Ayerza, George Chuter, Martin Castrogiovanni, Louis Deacon and Geoff Parling being auctioned first.

The online auction will last until Monday.

The remaining shirts will be auctioned next week, starting with the back-rowers and half-backs, before the centres and back three have their shirts auctioned.

All proceeds from the auction will go to the Royal British Legion's Poppy Appeal.
