I... don't know? I thought you were the one who brought it up. I'm pretty confused to be honest.
Looks like a big lad to me though.
....it was in response to the quoted height and him thus being able to handle himself and then to being part of some immense back 3 potentially. I just wondered why you challenged my mild challenge.
obviously he will turn out to be 6ft 4in now

Yeah that was definitely something I'd seen from him that made me question how he might step up to the next level, just being oblivious to where his team mates are. Reminds me a bit of Van der Merwe in that sense, where being so good at running means it often doesn't matter (in the moment) that you didn't spot the easy pass.
Also known as 'Radwan Syndrome'.

If it's anything like when George North appeared on the scene we'll hear it referenced every 3 minutes throughout the 6 nations.

Yup! I notice Ugo has now appeared on the beeb, which is....unfortunate. On the upside, no Guscott.....but still Andy Nicol (plus Johnno, Warburton and others). ITV have the upside of Flatman, the downside of dayglo (plus Jonny, SCW, BOD and others)

"Freddie Steward, who at 6ft5 is tall for a full-back..."
That one appears to have fallen out of favour now, but when he started it was mentioned more regularly than a magic pun when Harry Potter touches the ball.

I did see an interview he did a while back where he said he was worried that if he kept dominating in the air then Borthwick might push him into the lineout.

Sinckler's doing something weird at the scrums. Looking like he's not putting his whole weight in or attacking hard. Can't figure it out.
