Last week was quite a hard introduction for him, but I thought he acquitted himself reasonably well. Obviously it will take him a little while to find his way back around around a rugby field, especially in a standard that high.

Alfie is getting better by the day. He's been training this week and both he and Martin will have fitness tests on Friday before we travel. We remain hopeful on both of them, although Martin's groin is still causing him a bit of concern, so we'll have to wait and see what happens with that.
