When I was at Quins and I couldn’t buy a game, he took me on that trip to Australia in 2016 and that really shaped my career – not just my career, my life. I really threw myself into rugby and found that love again.
“I understood the importance of opportunity and I know that without Eddie, I wouldn’t play for England. He obviously saw something in me and took a punt on me. There’s a lot of gratitude and appreciation, and I thought it was important to have those conversations face-to-face, to look him in the eye and just let him know that I’m very grateful and I’m very thankful for the opportunity.”
