Ulster head coach Dan McFarland believes James Hume is showing all the hallmarks and instincts of a “world class” defender at outside centre.
Hume scored a try and produced an MVP display in Friday night’s thumping 36-17 win over Munster in a one-sided URC quarter-final at the Kingspan Stadium.
The 23-year-old also played a key role in Ulster’s four other tries by John Cooney, on his 100th appearance, Nick Timoney and Stewart Moore who bagged a brace.
