Fruean looked great, just what we need, a hugely destructive ball carrier and tackler in the midfield - all digits crossed.
I'd go with all of that. Babaas scrum struggled badly all game, whoever was on. Nel looked like a player who hadn't scrummed or played for many months. Hardly a surprise I guess.
Fruen is a bug lump who could do a lot of damage in the pro12
