Come across as a nice guy.  I think we were very lucky to sign him.

I was fortunate enough to catch him walking through the West Stand atrium after the Bath Champions Cup fixture. He very kindly agreed to having a picture taken with me. Not did he shake my hand afterward, he also shook my girlfriend's hand. Lovely bloke.

That is exactly the sort of player we want in the squad. A terror on the field and a gentleman off it.

And should be captain. He did it well down under.

I suspect that he will be if he stays fit and on form for a while.

Surprised in the team v Toulouse announcement to see that he has only made 3 appearances for us so far! What with the injury and England time, it still seems more.

It does feel like he's pretty settled now.
