Is this guy the one will put bums on seats?

I watched the highlights and he does have that WOW factor.

What the view of more our knowledgeable pundits?

Just watched the clip BB posted of him, certainly looks like an X factor player and looks to have real gas.....

He is one of those players that, when you see him get the ball with more than a metre or two of space, he seems able to compute and work out a route to the try line, and he presses the 'go' button and he is suddenly at full speed, no acceleration necessary, weaving all over. What IS unusual (for a winger), he can pass, kick and offload. With Josh, by way of comparison, he tends to run straight in one direction. Yes, he does have that 'x factor'. I think his known name is Mani, or some spelling of that.

The full match will be up on the Premiership Rugby site soon. I see they have already uploaded the Sharks one. Then watch the game and how he plays.

I'd be concerned whether our style of play will stop him doing that. Or whether we'll embrace his style. I like him, but not sure if he'll be used effectively.

To be honest I don't care.
I also don't care whether he's the complete player who is ready to step up.


He looks quick, and pace always frightens defences.


At the moment, we don't really frighten anyone, so with all due respect, I don't see us being any weaker if he replaced Kibirige in a game or 2

+1

Which is a lazy way of saying I agree. Respect to Zach, but he's just not looking threatening at the moment. Easy to say it's since he got knocked out cold against Sale, but who knows really. New blood, especially an unknown to the opposition, could be just the ticket.
