The 26-year-old has made eight appearances in the RaboDirect PRO12 this season but most of those have come on the wing and the former Bath man revealed he was delighted to return to the No.15 jersey and take the goal kicks.
"I knew a few days ago that I would be doing the goal-kicking so I was able to prepare," he told the Scotsman.
"I enjoyed it, if I'm honest. The last few weeks I have been running on the wing so it was great to get the opportunity at 15. I feel more at home there.
"Most of my experience has been at 15. I think I can use my kicking game more and influence the game. I am enjoying it at 15 and hopefully I will get another opportunity over the next few weeks.
"I have to wind the clock back to the last time I kicked the goals.
"It was for Bath probably four years ago under Steve Meehan when I did it for eight or nine games on the trot."
