Dave Carson was delighted to welcome Andrew Findlater back into his Highland team last weekend against Heriot’s Blues, and says the blindside flanker has already made an impact on his return.
Findlater travelled to Edinburgh as part of his first squad since getting injured in September, and although the result did not go the Greens’ way Findlater managed to get on the scoresheet with a try in the second half.
