    Given the fact that he's already committed to playing in France for the cash why would he not play for his local club and put something back into community rugby? That's all I'm asking.

    He'll be in the RWC mix whatever club he plays for.
    actually thats incorrect, Brisbane clubs dont offer nearly as much money as Sydney clubs, so if it was about money then no doubt he would have been in Sydney.

    I imagine he went to a Brisbane club beacause the wallabies have been based on the Gold Coast for the past couple of weeks.

    And I don't think he can be criticised too harshly for skipping one game.
