I fear that the level of toxicity that he brings would mean Newcastle would probably jump at paying half freight. The bloke couldn't calm the farm in order to stay in the NSW Origin team, no one at the club is going to be able to manage him. He was tolerable and somewhat manageable as a youngster with blokes like Bupa telling him to keep his head down. These days he sees himself as a senior player. While he is at a club, that club isn't going to make a GF, let alone win one, even if he is doing 300m a week.
