He had a lot of off field issues.
I will admit though I never thought he would make it. He was so skinny. Even at the Tigers he looked like someone who could have been out of the league soon. The Storm have turned him into a beast and one of the best wingers ever. Incredible. Good for him - it would have never have happened here.
But it is fun to imagine Barba, Holmes, Bird, Issako and JAC together in 2016. Can't complain though can we?
