Neil McMillan Neil's dedication to training, disciplined lifestyle and unrelenting quest for improvement make him a welcome addition to the culture of any team. Possessing exemplary levels of physical fitness and power he is constantly involved in the game for the full eighty minutes.

Neil’s positional specific skill set is complete; A traditional nose over the ball openside, Neil’s biggest individual contribution occurs at the breakdown due to his body shape, immense strength, technical proficiency and aggression Neil is proficient at sealing off ruck ball, ensuring quality possession at the breakdown as well as slowing down opposition attacking ball.

Frustrated by lack of opportunity with Ulster, Neil made the decision to join NEC Harlequins to compete in the Guinness Premeriership.
