As he settles into life with Newcastle Falcons, former University of Exeter and Exeter Chiefs back-row forward spoke to Joe Harvey about BUCS Super Rugby and his arrival at Kingston Park.
The Falcons are a club in transition and while next season will see head coach Alex Codling take over the reins at Kingston Park, Newcastle are still determined to conclude this campaign on a positive note.
The Rugby Football Union have said they will increase their efforts to eradicate discrimination from the game after their inclusion and diversity survey found that players had experienced some form of racism "in every area of the elite game."
Newcastle Falcons brought an end to their losing streak as they edged out Gloucester Rugby 17-12 in the 21st round of the Gallagher Premiership at Kingston Park on Friday.
