Has apparently been missing rehab sessions this season as well. So yeah, goes well I guess when he's on the field.
Yes. Remember how Luke Lewis wasn't the right fit? Not a good leader?
It's all bullshut. The media are fed these lines by those with agendas - like Gould, Flano, Ray Dib, the lot of them. The fact is he's an excellent footballer coming in to his prime. Penrith can hardly say 'he's a top footballer and his teammates love him but he can't stand being in the same room as the coach we got in for no apparent reason other than him being a mate'.
(Similarly, they can't say 'this 26 year old local junior who we made captain of the Club despite there being clearly better options and who we gave a big extension a long way out from his contract expiring suddenly isn't in our best 17'.)
