He was devastated when Rovers released him after working so hard at Oldham and Rovers to get himself back into Super League after leaving Castleford. I know that he was dreading dropping back into the National Leagues and i think it knocked the stuffing out of him because he hasnt been the same player since.
Whilst im thankful to him in his efforts getting him to super league, a quick look on the sl stats site shows he played 20 super league games for us and scored twice.
Not a good enough return for a super league centre and so I can understand why he was let go. Not knocking the guy but, especially back then when we had promotion and relegation to worry about, tough decisions had to be made and ultimately, he was given a crack and didnt do well enough.
