His name obviously raised a humourous eyebrow among rugby fans due to his unique name, however it was his first touch on the ball in this match which really sent people crazy.
In this clip, the young Australian had rugby fans amazed as his first touch of the ball was simply, yes, ‘magical’.
Imagine if this young lad makes it to the very top or World Rugby, the commentators will have a field day with him!
In this game, he did this with his very first touch of the ball! It is odd how the ball seemed to disappear and then suddenly appear in his hands like that… magical!

Here is his footage from him playing for Sydney University in Australia.
