New Zealand international Donald, 27, has joined Bath on the three-year deal from Super 15 side Chiefs.

"When it comes to training and we'll be smacking bits out of each other he'll realise it's about the Premiership now," Cheap Jordan Shoes Vesty told BBC Points West.
"He'll be on the bit of a buzz as he's won the planet Cup but then he'll train here and it will be wet and windy and perhaps that buzz will go.
"It's completely different to Super 15s - the size of season, amount of time you get off and also the type of rugby that's played. The defences work so difficult over here and they are very well organised, perhaps nothing like in Super 15s.
"The boys are bigger and heavier right here so you get a little little more bruised. But I'm certain he's a big lad so I'm certain he'll be able to handle it. If I can deal with it I'm sure he can."
Along with Donald,Soccer Jerseys Vesty also faces competition from academy youngster Tom Heathcote.

"It's the healthiest environment for a rugby team."
