I met Chris Hicks today and he said it could be up to 12 weeks before he could return home due to passport trouble with his child. Said he would miss a lot of pre season training.

Chris Hicks "retirement" was the shortest I have ever seen. |

Why do people keep saying this is dodgy?
I really dont get any impression from the Hicks quotes, nor the Joel Monaghan quotes that anything underhand, even remotely has gone on. In fact, it wouldn't suprise me if it was Hicks heard about the Eels opportuinity and thought he would rather go back than stay another year and retire here.
Best all round outcome in my opinion. As much as I think Hick's is great, he was getting on a bit for a back.

Not seen this anywhere on the board, has quotes from Hicks himself so looks official.
Good luck to him....'"
You missed the two page "Chris Hicks considering offers to play in Australia" thread then. |

Admittedly I thought it was very dodgy at first view, but then after someone stated that you could pay someone off before the season started, then fair enough.
But if Monaghan wasn't available, would Hicks have retired? No. They may not have forced him, but he obviously isn't ready to retire from rugby. |

He has mooted his retirement on two separate occasions. |

Hicks' retirement and Monaghan coming on board never looked dodgy to me. Some people love to create something out of nothing. Hicks has been great and gets another season of top flight RL and we get a younger full international and origin player. No brainer for me and for the club either presumably.
