'That is a great 'shift' by any stretch of the imagination. On average, it puts him as a 9 points a game player; the majority of those points being crucial to the overall match result. His contribution to Aberavon 'Quins, over the years of his service, has been bigger than a banker's Christmas bonus. He is a beautiful striker of the ball, has lovely hands and for a relatively small bloke, he's tougher than Tarzan's feet. Had he wished, just on his kicking ability alone, he could have been successful at any level of club rugby. At our level, he's the real deal - the Cat's Miaouw and the 'Quins are very lucky and extremely grateful to have benefitted from his services'
