Looks like a sound signing. 27 and on the international fringes. Can also play 6 so it looks like a straightforward Fifita replacement. We are certainly beefing up our pack. 6 ft 8 so presumably a line out option as well.

Which was are Wasps heading in this? I’d expect (maybe entirely incorrectly) that the signings would be the last announcements after the leavers and the contract extensions. I can’t believe Fifita, Young, Gopperth and Fekitoa are the only leavers? Or that there won’t be some extending.

Great that he's coming, but do wish the PR boys would stop their input on what the players are supposed to have said:

“I can’t wait to wait to feel the buzz at Coventry Building Society Arena next season!” has PR written all over it

Looking at a few videos of him in action, he is a fairly nippy player as well.

I did say I wasn't sure how old it was. 30 extra caps is how many years? 2, 3, 4 ?

Consensus amongst Glasgow fans seems to be we've got a very good player coming to us. A number seemed to think he would have spent the rest of his career with Glasgow and sad to see him go.
