Quote: Famous "I said at the time we signed him that he could turn out to be a very astute signing and I stand by this. He is a massive fella, is fairly mobile with it and he has bags of potential and after a proper pre-season he will be a good asset next season.'"
Definitely, imo, is physically more suited to RL than RU. Obviously he is older and that will have an effect on him. If we had got him 2 or 3 years ago we would have been laughing.
Then again he hasn't had a career of "RL" impacts, so maybe we can get 2 or 3 years out of him?
As I said at the time, I think it's a "gamble" well worth taking.
