He's the current fullback for COHA. A very good prospect. If you follow COHA on social media, there seems to be a special try scored by him nearly every week. Before joining the academy he was touted as the next Sam Tomkins.

I work with his relative and we beat a lot of clubs for his signature, suppose to be a really good player . Let’s just hope he progresses, which isn’t always guaranteed with good young players .

Safe(ish) under the high ball at FB when he generally has time but isn;t big enough to defend effectively against cross field kicks. I'd question if anyone who doesn't see this as obvious has seen how the game has developed in the last 5 years

Teams don't kick to the corners so much these days. We are one of the few teams that still use the tactic regularly. More often its dropped on the scrum half's head. The days of Pat Richards and Monaghan scoring bags of tries from cross field kicks are gone.
Besides, he is only a whopping 2 inches shorter than Talanoa. He isn't a dwarf.

Teams use it every game but defenders deal with it better than they used to. It's also easier just to pass it to the winger against us and he'll generally have a walk in

No Scott Taylor, which indicates to me he might be having surgery on his shoulder
I was hoping that was the case. I know Tag will be gutted, but he really does need to get himself right and have a full close season because his body has been pretty much non stop for 3 seasons now.
