Welsh Union Star to Rugby League

[SteveM]

lol how many caps did he get for the England union team again? Nice try.

He got 8 caps with about half as a replacement.

As an older player with an excellent RL pedigree they threw him in to see what he could do. Unfortunately, it was'nt a lot.

By the way I rated AF. It's a pity he did not come to union earlier.

Yeah, he could have had 30 more caps and as a result, been an even bigger failure.

Allready posted this in the Crusaders to Wrexham topic.

In all seriousness, the man broke headlines admitting he's gay. I don't know how well this sat with welsh fans, so instead of a PR coup we might be looking at a PR hot potato.

Welsh fans already knew he was gay, wasn't a big secret on the Welsh club rugby scene. No one really cared.
