He threw a lot of dangerous passes actually. It will be a much tougher test on Friday and hopefully Gus will take fewer risks accordingly

We're still still here, but I wish we were in an Anglo-Welsh

I was wary of pinning my hopes on Gus being our new 10 but 3 games in a row he's performed, he has weaknesses to work on but he looks a good find so far.

We're thrown to the wolves in the minds of our enemies.

AOB looked good last night. I think he needs a proper crashball 12 outside him but a mobile one, and some pace at 13. He's small and lithe and even when he took the ball in bad positions, he always made the defence check with his footwork. Lots of half breaks, lots of beating the first man without a linebreak. Good work, a very old school 10 in a way, and probably not the kind to get the backline moving - you need a distributor for that who plays less off the cuff, but can take it closer to the line without jinking. Looks a good signing for this sort of level, and good to mix it up with the other 2 Welsh 10s we have once Lamb moves on. But not international quality.

Lets wait a while before we set his ceiling. He has a lot of skills at a level required to be an international but also some weaknesses. It's how he works on his weaknesses that will determine whether he becomes an international. The best thing about him is that his decision making is good at this level and that he seems to have time or to be able to create time. |

I don't know how far he can go or what his limits are, but I do know I like him. Good decision maker, kicks well from hand and keeps defences honest. The boy has a lot to build on!

For the kind of player he is I think he would have shown a real flair and creativity that sets him apart. A bit like Carbery for Ireland. As yet, he hasn't done that, either with us or more importantly at the Dragons. Good club player is what I see in him. It's a big, big step up to the test arena from regional rugby, something that goes overlooked sometimes. Just giving my assessment that he might be good for a handful of caps, but it's better to enjoy him as a good club player and, if he stays with us, potentially a bit of a cult hero as well.
