At least he didn't go in head first this week. Came on late in the game had a couple of runs, made 2/3 tackles maybe at fault for the Thompson try, he charged out a bit too quickly & Thompson side stepped him & went in the corner to score.

Once he settles in he'll be a very solid player for them. Defensively he'll be tough to beat and he'll be a strong runner.

His enthusiasm is good to see. He's seen it all in Union at far bigger and more meaningful events with bigger crowds, yet he really seems committed to making a go of his stay in league, no matter how short it is. Seeing him make it out as something worth doing can only benefit the sport. Players in Union who might think they would be better suited to league might be encouraged to follow him and kids who recognise him as a great sporting figure in Wales might watch league for the first time, again beneficial.

There are no drawbacks to this signing, applause to the team that pulled it off.
