 Southwell was troubled by a shoulder injury last season |
Scotland full-back Hugo Southwell has extended his Edinburgh contract until the end of season 2008/2009. "I am optimistic about the future of Edinburgh Rugby and pleased with the vision of the new owners and where we're going," said the 27-year-old.
"There is every reason to believe we can be near the top of the Magners League this coming season."
Southwell, capped 30 times, is currently with the Scotland squad ahead of September's World Cup.
