You'd have to ask them.
For me, personally, I've already stated why we don't need him. But to highlight a few of them -
He's lightweight.
He's not quicker than what we already have.
He's not stronger than what we already have.
We already have multiple competent kickers in the team.
He's a poor defender.
He'll be targeted with high balls.
He'll be targeted on 4th tackle + plays.
He's not great under a high ball.
He's not got a great attitude.
He's scored plenty, by being on the end of passes and kicking goals. Something I'd rather have a bigger, faster, more competent winger doing.
Each to their own, of course. You rate him, fair enough. Others don't. I don't, regardless of his scoring record. There's more to players than stats.
