Personal Overview

I have played Premier rugby in NZ since 2011. Before that i played a season in Cape Town, South Africa.

I have good vision with ball in hand and able to identify space with a good kicking game. 

My strengths are running hard lines breaking that first defender and gaining momentum aswel as distribution and putting players into space.

Main positions are both midfield and Fullback. I can also play first five.
