End of the day he's obviously not happy, rightly or wrongly, at the Tigers and causing problems as a result. We need a second play kicking option to take pressure off Norman, because Gutherson/Takairangi/Smith/Edwards aren't up to it.
He's a talented player who played like an elite playmaker in patches during his best form. At absolute worst he's a better kicking option for the rest of this season than what we have run out at 6 this season. So probably better for both sides.
As a general comment I've never understood why coaches force players who clearly don't want to be there to play. Either drop them to reserves or let them go. It's better for the side in the long run, and often in the short run too....nothing worse than a bloke who doesn't give a shit, and while I doubt there are very many professional players who will ever deliberately play poorly there's certainly no way a player who doesn't want to be there is doing the tough stuff when the team isn't travelling so well.
