Why Wallabies prospect has been sidelined but still stands to benefit

“As a front rower, we’re stereotyped as ‘hit rucks, scrum hard’, but the game has developed. I think him being on the sidelines has helped his rugby IQ. Seeing the game is quite expansive, and seeing the game through a different lens,” Toomaga-Allen said.
“He’s a beast, he can’t deny that, but no one really sees him doing the little extras in the gym or working on technical aspects of the set-ups for scrummaging or clean-out techniques, and having extra meetings and doing the film work.
“He’s living up to the hype so far. I have tried to take him under my wing, but if we’re talking about formidable forces, he’s one to be reckoned with.
“He’s very grounded and always wanting to learn, and I think that’s his biggest asset – always wanting to learn and not know everything, given the hype. It’s a testament to how he was raised.
