Leicester's Johne Murphy has said he is happy to play anywhere for now but has his sights set on making the full-back position his own in the long term. Murphy, 23, has impressed the Tigers hierarchy during a difficult season and is eager to retain his starting spot.
"My preferred position is full-back but I'll play anywhere," Murphy said.
"I'd like to play a few games at 15 but I think I've been doing all right on the wing and I'll stay there and try to take my chances at 15 when they come."
He told BBC Radio Leicester: "I said to myself at the start of the year my goal was to play all the games while the lads were away at the World Cup.
 | This is just the start for me as a player |
"I did that and then I've had had some good form of late.
"I'm by no means close to the finished article I've have to keep improving, keep listening to the coaches and doing the extras that are going to bring me on as a player.
"This is just the start for me as a player. I have to keep my head down and keep working away."
