IIRC, he only got a one year extension last season and, as he will be 30 next year, it's understandable that he should look for a payday down south, pro rugby's a short career. I think he'll do well with Worcester and very best of luck to him.
My understanding is that, once you're qualified for a country by residency, you don't lose that status by moving, you remain qualified. Disco??
had he been "captured" ie capped he would stay SQ. He wasn't , so as soon as he moves he is lost. Its no big loss given how little he has featured this season. And I doubt in the circumstances he is getting a big pay day - released early as surplus to Edinburgh, uncapped; most teams spent up for this season and many already for next season. Any deal is a good deal for him
