Isn’t Sam Lewis a 7? Or am I just thinking that because of the Worcester one?

Lewis is a 5/6. Not sure what his best position is and where he might end up.

Good for Steward. A lot of good judges rate this lad highly.

6 will be his best position IMO. But he did play lock for the U20's.
He lacks the bulk to get anywhere major at lock but he is pretty quick and mobile

Manu off after 27 minutes. Injury?

Don't think so he looked fine on the bench.

On other note Lewis was amazing and Steward looks class.
Opposition was pants.
