Summarising on ITV Sport, he said: “He’s a great runner of the ball. He’s coming with lots of enthusiasm and has Chris Harris who also plays in the English Premiership and Finn Russell and his box of tricks - I think he gives a bit of solidity in the midfield.
“He’s up against Ollie Lawrence who he’s played with in the England under-20s and that will be fascinating because Lawrence will want to run that channel down the 12.”
