Quote: Him "That might be part of the equation, and maybe a significant part, but let's face it that's not the only reason he has left for Union.
It's for the money and publicity that he can't get in League. I don't blame him for that, but neither do I think it's the end of the world for RL that some seem to think it is either.
So we (as a sport) have to keep producing players to replace the likes of Eastmond, Myler & Burgess. Meh, it's only what RU had to do in the past when the boot was on the other foot.
The issue that will affect RL far, far more than whether a handful of albeit excellent players go to Union is if we get international RL sorted out or if we continue to cock it up for another 30 years, with only a handful if bright sparks of hope amongst that.'"
Yeah I know what you mean the publicity and money will give him a lot of publicity... But he's a superstar in Australia. I just believe his main reason is to rest his body which is understandable.
Let's just hope that he returns in 2017!!
