Andy Powell welcome, but bigger Super League concerns remain

The fire still burns fiercely in Andy Powell's belly and becoming a dual-code international represents the Welshman's final career goal.

The controversial union number eight has finally sealed his move from Sale Sharks to rugby league and claims the opportunity to sign for Wigan was just too tempting to resist.

Played the first game of the season, scored 2 tries and set up two. In the last 2 minutes I got injured. The time line to get back from this injury is 6-12 wks. At my age, i am unsure if it will the 6 or 12 wks.

So that's how you kinda play.

The Aviva Premiership final this weekend.

Tigers v. Saints.

Should be a good game.

Just thought I would bump this, a little late for the Canada v. Ireland game on TSN right now. 12-9 at the half for Ireland, and Canada has looked good so far. They withstood an enormous Irish attack before the half and had a couple chances of their own. James Pritchard also kicked three penalties to become the leading scorer in Canadian history, passing Gareth Rees.

Canada was up 14-12 but then the Irish rallied and won 40-12. Not the result that was hoped for (and even felt possible at one point), but lots of games ahead this summer. Notably a home and home with the Americans for qualification to England 2015.

Shane Williams called up for the Lions tour. He retired from international rugby in 2011. Lots of injury worries for the tourists.
