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.

But Piutau has already visited these shores with the New Zealand team in 2013, and while here they were given a GAA masterclass by Dublin stars including Stephen Cluxton and Johnny McCaffery.
Check out Piutau and his team-mates trying their hands at the round ball and the hurley.
