Ellis delivers moments as a dominant defender and brings versatility and physicality to our pack.

His impact within our defence through his work in the collision and tackle area, and the way he can slow the ball down above the ground is important as we grow our game and maximise opportunities to get on top and win the ball back.

He also plays a key role in the team’s ability to destroy the opposition’s set piece platform whilst ensuring we deliver ours, especially so within the line-out.
