Henry Arundell had Jason Robinson singing his praises after scoring one of rugby ’s great individual tries in Toulon.
It was not enough to save London Irish from a 19-18 quarter-final defeat in the European Challenge Cup at Stade Mayol. But a week after announcing himself to the Premiership by sparking the Exiles’ 25-point comeback from the dead against Wasps, the teenager showcased his talents to an international audience.
With the score 19-13 to Toulon the 19-year old sub took the ball on his own try line and went the length, mixing blistering speed with deceptive running. “Henry Arundell take a bow!!! Outstanding try!!” tweeted World Cup -winner Robinson, who knows a thing or two on the subject.
