Black & Red TV caught up with Edinburgh Rugby centre James King as he prepares to face Aironi at the Stadio Zaffanella on Saturday, almost a year on from his debut when the club edged Aironi in Itlay last October (10-9). Since joining from Melrose, King has become a regular part of the black and red backline, starting 11 of his 17 appearances for the club, including the club’s more comfortable home win over Aironi in the return fixture (32-14). Watch the exclusive B&R TV interview where King talks on his time and progress at the club, the need to build on Friday’s 19-14 win over Connacht and his expectations of the match.
