“I’m looking for total commitment and hard work on and off the field,” Ratier said. “We don’t have too much time together before the first game but if all of us are working hard, with the right attitude, I am not worried about this group and their ability to fight for each other.
“Canadian players have a big heart and passion and it will be a good time to show these values.”Canada’s 2016 Americas Rugby Championship Long List:
