Quote: SaintsFan "Maybe. But if memory serves, neither Dureau nor Dobson could get a first team spot in the NRL and yet over here they have done very well. I suppose a similar example but in the other direction might be Gareth Widdop who was playing for Halifax over here (don't remember any Superleague clubs showing interest?) but what a mark he has made in the NRL with the Storm.
Walsh, if the rumour is true, could indeed turn out to be an average half with a great kicking game or the change in scenery may be exactly what he needs to bring him out of himself and fulfill the potential his present coach says he has.'"
Did Gareth Widdop actually play in this country. I thought he was born in Halifax but moved to Aus as a kid. I may be wrong though
