Dan joined Gloucester Rugby in the summer of 2010 from London Irish.

Started his rugby career as a number eight, before a well meaning coach at St Mary's University recommended that he move into the front row!

The 26 year old was a regular feature in the Gloucester first team squad throughout 2011-12, making more than 20 appearances.

2012-13 has seen him feature even more regularly in the first team squad, and he has also shown an eye for the try line, scoring three tries to date.

Dan signed a new two year contract with the club in the spring.
