It’s no secret that James Lowe has been brought in to add an extra bit of spark to Andy Farrell’s backline, but a former teammate has warned that attacking flair alone won’t cut it at Test level.

Lowe is primed to make his international debut against Wales tomorrow, with Ireland head coach Farrell hoping his impressive return of 33 tries in 49 Leinster appearances can continue on the Test stage.
