When's he ever played Union? SBW will be a different player to the one that left the Doggies but if he does come back, has the ability to be a great League player again.

Disagree that any of the above came back better.
Brad Thorn could have been a legend of the game if he'd carried on, but now he's a trundler.
Mat Rogers hasn't been near the Kangaroos team since he went.
Gasnier was an animal before he went, big, quick and stong. And an International. He came back and got nowhere near the Aussie team and looked a shadow of his former self in the SOO this year.
Lote Tuqiri at least has been good for Wests, but I would say he was better before he left also. He's been the least harmed by the lesser code.

Agree with Jonny, not one player has come back better.

Hadn't he had 2 shoulder ops by the time he was 20? The move to union probably prolonged his career due to their rules of no big hits (or whatever the rule is that doesn't allow you to smash someone without locking on). I can see his return to league being over within 3 of those 5yrs. Hope I am wrong due to him being one of the most sensational young talents to have been lost from the game but unless he comes back a different player his shoulder will give out again in no time.
