Gatland wrote: ” Freddie is exceptional in the air and I also really like the way he has been developing as a full-back. He offers an attacking threat, and scores tries. 

“My one bit of advice from a defensive point of view is that for Tom Wright’s try in the third Test, Freddie should have gone hard at a 45-degree angle to close the space down and prevent Wright from finding support from Nic White.”
