David Ribbans: Northampton Saints star benefits from Allan Lamb input
He was once a star of a very different game, but such is Allan Lamb's love of rugby union, he has been happy to play a small behind-the-scenes role in the sport for a number of years.
"In terms of mentoring, I am just there for them. As time has gone on, it's just become a regular thing. I've become a little bit of a father figure, I've stepped in to help whenever they need anything. I always give them advice if they want it."He continued: "It's just been an ongoing thing. I heard David was coming over - and they said he's a great guy - and I've introduced him to loads of friends in Northampton, which is great for him.
"I spoke to Jack Willis a lot, with Toulouse, he filled me with so much confidence about loving the French lifestyle, every game is a Test match," said Ribbans."In terms of England, I've made peace with that decision. It was obviously tough. Let's see if things change but I have to live with that. I will go and play in a league full of stars.
"We know we have to be clinical, against a team like Saracens, you have to take your chances. All of us want to end on a high, there's real added motivation. I feel something special could happen."
