away. He performed pretty well in the back half of the season,
his decision making stopped being a disaster, he cleaned up the
handling errors, and he showed some smarts and some elusive work
out wide. He has some strengths that should not be ignored, but
at the same time he is limited by what his body can do - he's
unfortunately not the same sort of athletic specimen as most
other Prem wingers. I said last season he'd probably make for a
fine 13, but at wing his relative lack of physicality and his
undeniable lack of pace are a genuine concern.

IIRC didn't Cam Anderson come from the England 7's set up when
they lost funding? Taking time to get used to 15's in a poor set
up last year also. As others have said, a good squad player, but
not a Murley, so lets cut him a bit of slack.

I'm not sure about that. He came from London Scottish, although
was highly rated in that league. I think he may have previously
been in the Wasps academy but I may be misremembering. LS (and
former Wasps!) fan Dawson, who posts on here, will know.

The opposition in this highlights reel was not exactly top
class. The kid's got some talent, no doubt, but let's see him
against Prem opposition over an entire match before getting
over-excited.

Did you think of that one on the spur of the moment and post it
immediately.
