When will he start for Wigan. Presuming he's coming at the end of the RU season which ends around the same time as football. The Best part of a year playing union and then starting league (possibly again) with the major and subtle differences of the two sports. I cant see him in the Cherry and White until 2014.
I think a lot will depend on his fitness and also our injury situation at the time.
From speaking to people who watch Rugby Union they seem to be of the opinion that he will be a good signing for Wigan and that he could adapt to the game quickly given his style of play.
From watching videos of him its clear that he can run hard and tackle hard and those two qualities seem to be much admired by the Wigan coach.
On the back of that he brings some big game experience to a pretty young pack of Wigan forwards and that could be crucial particularly come play-off time.
Can't wait to see him in the Cherry & White and I have a feeling that he will be all over Wigan TV shortly.
Wigan will want to make the most of this signing PR wise so perhaps we should expect a press conference.
