Don’t know why you want a big name they rarely work out and cost far too much money, this guy is someone to grow with the team and we all know that that is the way to success and players staying at the Club.

We had lots of internationals announced on Monday - I just think it’s a shame we ended with a kid rather than spacing out the internationals.

Could be that the bigger names had already been all but announced so were more of a confirmation of some badly kept secrets.

Looks pretty promising to me. Breaks the first tackle and stays on his feet, unselfish and knows where his support is, got a decent pass, seems to have very good defensive positioning (watch him push the players outside him into the correct channel) and gets turnovers. Taking any uni level player is a bit of a gamble, but he’s not going to be costing us much.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it takes him a season to get up to speed with premership rugby, but he seems to have the rugby brain and is young enough to be worth a gamble.

I guess we won't be having any threads about boating at Oxford or Cambridge...

And yet you can write Saracens.

No consistency.

Looks a bit slow given the level he was playing at, but appreciated the other parts of his game from that vid.

Weirdly he looked a bit slow in the first half of the video and considerably quicker in the second half.

Hmm, he won’t fit in with the current team then...
