WATCH: Ulster’s All Black signing is a bit of a GAA man

Ulster rugby’s All Black signing Charles Piutau has had a head start in acclimatising to life in Ireland - he’s already been introduced to Gaelic football and hurling.

The province yesterday announced that the highly rated 23-year-old - who can play at full-back, wing or centre - will be moving to the Kingspan stadium in July.
