He gets a bit of a bad wrap around here but I actually thought he was good for us when he could stay on the field.
Body wasn’t quite ready for the rigors of weekly nrl and injuries brought him unstuck but that Sj, pomkins, hurrell combo was lethal.

Was he worth $1m ? Nope.
Was he a quality NRL fullback? Yes.
Unfortunately the price tag preceded him and was judged to be a flop for the money, but the narrative that stuck was he was a flop in general. Most that said that would have been causal fans or fans of Aussie teams that only watched 1-2 full Warriors games a season.
I think there are a fair few of us who could see what he was bringing to the table.

Could have been a superstar here if he knew they made longer sprigs…
True, but they offered it to him
