Shocking isn't it spending his free time signing books for fans

I would have honestly thought he could promote his book (and lets be honest that is what he was doing) on days where he didn't have a game but then I'm not a fan, never have been so there's probably some bias in my thoughts.

He sounds like a really good bloke......



By the way...he turned down playing for Wigan! Wow....he's so special....wow.....wow.....wow.....

Im not keen to read it. Im more interested in RL players that have focussed on their game more than anything, and achieved great things, than a controversial 'character' who wouldn't have lasted five minutes in the NRL.

Leave him alone he's world class

Name me any current players in SL who have achieved what he has. In fact, name me anyone since Edwards who has?

Australia have got plenty of them. Any more scandals recently?

What? He would have fitted in perfectly.

If a player best against his team and it was found out in ANY other sport, he would be banned for LIFE!

Betting against your team, walking out on GB, signing for Hull, it doesn't get any worse!

That's the final straw for me. His pathetic attempts to justify his walkout are embarrassing. 'Waaah I didn't like the set-up, the training, the team selection waaaah'... What the hell would someone like Alan Prescott say to whining like that?

You're there with your team-mates (whether you like them all or not), you're representing your country (the highest honour for any sportsperson) and you've got the chance to win a competition in Australia (the ultimate for any British RL player). And all that aside, you do not let your team-mates down, you do not spit your dummy and leave them in the lurch.

He's been a quality player and I can look past his childish antics on the field and even the betting as youthful exuberance, but to turn your back on your players is something else.
