Going by Englands offering in last years WC he could play at 70% and still be head and shoulders above any English forward. Besides, when/if he gets over hear I don't think for one minute he would give anything less then 100%, he is a winner.

Even though he is KFC bound I hope he does get his visa, he is a phenominal player when fit/not suspended and will only add to the spice of our local derbies and SL in general. Plus his best pal Clint Newton might stay a bit longer if he is on a long contract

Given the fact that it's a choice between Super league or retirement shows he doesn't place a high value on the competition. It is arguably less intense than the NRL but it might be a bit tougher than Crocker's expectations.
And what message does this send to his new coach? Can't be arsed before he even pulls the shirt on.
quite a few have come over and had their eyes opened and failed to live up to their star billing... matt king immediately springs to mind
To us REAL fans, there's no better feeling than winning competitions. Getting to a final is next. Then a top 6 finish or semi-final appearance. Then I suppose the derby counts as the most important league fixture.
Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.
Quite sad, really!
SPOT ON!
