Maybe to the likes of you who know sod all about RL, but Galea was highly rated in Oz and by those who understand the game here.

So you mean the same as Melbourne on the evening ?

Well if you want to argue that the weather in the evening in Melbourne is comparable to February/March in Hull then fill your boots. :roll:

In any event, there are players that don't perform as well in the UK, my theory is that the reason (or at least in part) is the colder wether for a significant part of the season.

Are you suggesting that no Aussie has come over here and underperformed?

This is something new I heard today and can only be dismissed as a rumour at this stage. Crocker allegedly got his visa the second time round and was annoyed with how Hull handled the situation and the fact that Hull were also allegedly paying Lauaki while awaiting for his visa, so signed for a deal with Souths. However Clint Newton has suggested that he takes a pay cut in order to fit him under the salary cap and they will also be sharing a house.

So he was that vexed he signed a deal that was 60k a year less than his potential hull deal, these rumours get better every rovers home game
