It can't have been much fun for him in Japan.

felt for him  I don't think he quite fits in with the way EJ wants to play.  In any other environment he could wel be a shoe in IMHO.

Still, on the plus side, he will come back many hundreds of thousands of pounds better off if they win this weekend, and will be as fit as he has been at the start of the run up to Christmas for many a year. I know either would bring a smile to my face. Also, he has been able to watch some fantastic rugby and see the sights.

I hope he provides the team a lift, he will certainly add something on the pitch, he always does.
I was just looking at an article on Tigers and the returning players. Worrying in that I knew they had a few out but when you read it on paper, they should quickly move on from their current position.
Dan Cole, Ellis Genge, Ben Youngs, George Ford, Manu Tuilagi, Jonny May, Tomás Lavanini, Telusa Veainu, and Jordan Taufua - Thats one hell of an injection.

I think many Tigers fans thought they went backwards last season when their internationals came back in. Really looking forward to seeing a fit and raring to go Launchbury coming back in. That will be a huge bonus for us in an area where we need it.

Other than Ford who kept them up single handedly..time will tell.
