Ojo scored twice on his England debut in New Zealand in June

London Irish winger Topsy Ojo has said he is putting the England tour of New Zealand behind him and is now focusing on the Exiles' season ahead.

Ojo was found guilty of misconduct and fined during the tour, which he still regards as a positive experience.

He told BBC Radio Berkshire: "To get selected for England and then to have the debut that I had, I couldn't have asked for more.

"Obviously there was the unwanted publicity but that's all dealt with."

Ojo added: "Everyone was cleared which was what we expected, so it's all positive now. I really enjoyed my time in New Zealand and now I'm just looking forward to getting the season started."

Ojo will start for London Irish against Wasps on Saturday at Twickenham and he said the Exiles' squad know this is an important season for them.

"If you look back over the last three or four years, we have managed to keep that core of players together, it's all about onwards and upwards for us now."

Prop Tonga Lea'aetoa will also feature for the Exiles, despite rumours over the summer regarding a transfer to Bayonne.

And Lea'aetoa added: "When I first heard the rumours, I just laughed at them. Me coming back late after being in Tonga probably added fuel to the blaze.

"I hear it's 25 degrees there at the moment, so on a day like today it might have been nice but I assure everybody, I'm not going anywhere."
