Interesting if true and a leap of faith or a big gamble on Biarritz's part. There is no doubt he has electric pace and great feet.
It was fine when I left it.....

He has gas and then some, and quite a good step (something Josh Bassett could do with).

Terrific player. Big step up for him. Mainly sevens but played some American football, mainly college. Never played 15s, as far as I am aware.  Perhaps he should have a word with Christian?

Be pleased to see him out of the US 7s team, to give them less chance of beating England when they meet.

Like watching him when he is playing against any other team, and far better rugby brain than Carlin Isles - who is supposed to be quicker.
