Biography
When you see Dan floating gracefully along the wing,it's easy to forget the journey he took to reach the pinnacle of social rugby:a place in the Gannets team.
Abandoned in the pet food aisle as a baby at what was then Safeway in Northfleet,he was taken in by the nightshift staff and raised as one of their own.
Upon seeing a game of rugby on the instore TV's,he honed his skills using a frozen chicken as a ball and 'piso mojado' signs as would be opponents,much to the chagrin of the cleaning staff.
