His size realy hasn't been an issue, in a relatively small Bristol pack, and offers a whole of skills the other 2s don't as well as solid basics. But we'd be glad to have him all season!

TBH, I was thinking more ‘too small’ for test rugby. I agree he’s pretty much entirely debunked that at Premiership level.

I'd still like to see Thacker tried at international level...he's been consistently excellent for Briz.
