Not happening, he's staying in Rugger.

Doesn't he earn like a billion dollars in Japan? Why would he come here to learn less and thrash his body?

Because people take less money for the honour to play with the Roosters The Roosters will tell you that themselves..

Not surprising really. He probably looked at the injury list for the chooks last year and this year and thought "yeah, nah".

If injuries keep piling up at the current rate our game is going to have to pay blokes $1m+ a season just to be a regular first grader. Your team has 12 out at the moment I think, we have 9.

LOL I never thought about that but it makes perfect sense.

Yeah even though our injury list is a farking thesis, we're not the only ones copping it. I see Carrigan from the Donkeys has done his ACL.

I dunno if you can point at the rule changes though as ACL's happen anytime. I think it's more just shithouse luck.
