There's a Jenkins highlight reel here:

I think this was probably put together by his agent – certainly it's of a type. Obviously you only show good bits on a highlight reel, and this is five years old, but I was really interested to see some footage of this guy. I'd never seen even a minute of him playing. He has picked up niggle after niggle at Munster which is a bit of a worry, but there's some interesting things there.
He is really athletic and quick off the mark for such a tall man. He's not a Damian Willemse or Damian Browne type of player, a big bulwark of a man.That's what I thought we were getting. He's much more explosive. That might be good for us.
You can't tell how a player is going to fit in to the squad. It's a huge deal. That is particularly the case with a player who hasn't made his reputation at test level, but even some guys who have been regular test players don't fit in. For example, I frequently forget that Kane Douglas played for Leinster for a season. He should have been a good fit for us – he clearly had a spot in the team to fit into, he was playing under an Aussie coach – but everything was a problem for him.
Leinster as an organisation have been very well organised and very competent for the last six years or so, after an iffy period of two years with the ineffective and scattered Matt O'Connor as head coach. There aren't many holes in the squad and we're not looking for a player to come in and turn the team's fortunes around ... we're looking for a player to come in and fill a particular role, a role that is primarily effort-based.
We haven't had a South African in the squad since Zane Kirchner, a lovely fellah. We've had some great lads in the past from there – Heinke, Richardt and Big Ollie were all big contributors in their time here.
