Quote: NickyKiss "Felt like he’ll go but the reason will be to prove he’s a top player rather than to experience all the trappings that come with a move to Oz. He seemed like he couldn’t care less about the weather, beaches, fame etc. He just seemed like he wants to be respected and it was refreshing to hear. I don’t think some of our ex players have gone for the same reasons.'"
He definitely doesn't seem concerned with the sunshine or extra money I agree, its probably all about testing himself. I think if Saints offer him marquee money he will have a real decision to make. He will undoubtedly be captain by then too and the player that the club needs to re-build around. I don't think he has a chance of breaking Roby's appearance record which is what Graham suggested may be an aim but I've been told he is a real home bird, exceptionally close to his family etc.
I do agree though, despite this, I think he will go.
