Coaches Comment:
Ian over the past season has come into his own style of playing rugby. A Big aggressive Ball Carrier, who loves to sidestep like Jason Lenorad. I wish i could say Jason Robinson. He very helpful player on and off the field. and is Never shy of a “Good Recking Session” in his Isle Magee words ! He also leads me to believe that he’s a pretty good Trail Biker, when he’s not throwing his weight about on the rugby pitch. He currently one of the Top Try Scorers in the club and is sure to buy a few more Jugs this Season.
