[QUOTE="ratsapprentice, post: 683573, member: 67273"] They aren't teaching him to be an inside centre though... They are teaching him to be a back-rower... hence Flouw being his "mentor". They see IC as the easiest position to drip feed him experience - I don't think he'll play in the centre in an important game. He wont need very much training in order to play LV cup rugby in the midfield. Especially because it doesn't matter how good he is as an IC. What we want him to learn from his time there is presenting the ball, the difference in tackle and carrying technique, and breakdown work. Not all the IC specific stuff. [/QUOTE]
