Why do RL players from the north of England have such a problem with moving away from there? Whether it's London or the southern hemisphere, players repeatedly seem to have a problem with relocating. It seems much rarer for southern hemisphere players moving around there or to Europe to have problems.

I'm not so sure that's right Richie. I'm sure plenty of Aussies and Kiwis get homesick too - there's just a lot more of them in total over here so those that go home early aren't as apparent.

Northern lads seem to struggle more in London - but that's more understandable.

So I assume the new marquee player rules are a shoe in.

Honestly though for a big tough sport RL players can be a bit soft when it comes to homesickness. I don't hear about in soccer where players move around much more to countries much different.

UK to AUS and vice versa is hardly being plonked on Mars, it shares a language and a similar culture. Not to be able to see out a three year commitment playing rugby on the money he is on is pathetic.

I lived in the US for three years in my mid twenties earning probably less than he spends on clothes a month.

He'll have done 2 seasons, he's competed in NRL, hardly an Eastwood level hissy fit.

Come on Uncle Gary. Do the decent thing.

Won't happen but it'd be f**king hilarious if we signed him.

He'll only play for Wigan and besides you have Hardaker. But it would be funny if he somehow did sign for you.

two years in the NRL is not bad really, hardly doing a runner.He's Probably not been the huge success perhaps he might have been but certainly no failure and still the rest of this season to go yet. I was always a little shocked TBH that he chose the Warriors over one of the more flashy OZ clubs, and maybe the more sedate lifestyle in NZ is taking its toll.

Obviously would be a shock to see him go anywhere other than Wigan, and it will strengthen them no end, but i will be glad to see him back in our competition.

A cynical thought crossed my mind.

Given the rumour of an iniment 'massive' signing announcement and the ongoing delay with the results (being published anyway) of the Zak 'investigation' could these two be linked?????
