Delaney hails arrival of Erinle

Erinle has played for England at A, Saxons and Sevens level

Nottingham director of rugby Glenn Delaney says the arrival of Ayoola Erinle from Leicester Tigers has raised his side's level of play.

The Green and Whites enjoyed an emphatic 57-8 win over Manchester at Meadow Lane on Sunday.

Delaney told BBC Radio Nottingham: "He's [Erinle] been very positive and our backs have responded very well.

"He caused a lot of trouble when he had the ball and that meant our wingers had a lot of chances."

Delaney added: "It's an exiting thing to have a player of that calibre playing in your team because you want to raise your game and show him that you're a good player as well.

"He's working his way back to fitness and will be challenging for a spot in that Leicester first team and we're happy to keep giving him game time."
