Montero admitted it was hard sitting on the side-lines last year, especially during the Rugby Championship and World Cup.

"I missed training with the group and living day to day with the team. The many things I missed last year was a blow," he added.

Montero says being part of Super Rugby is a dream come true. He also believes the Jaguares can go all the way in the tournament.

Montero is expected to return to the playing field by the end of March or early April.
