I quite like RHP's analysis, albeit fairly shallow. It doesn't actually have any need to be on the pitch though, that's a gimmick. Think you're maybe a little harsh in doubting him as an ex superstar. I know the NRL have Lockyer and Johns doing theirs but a quick look at past British stars shows why RHP fits the bill, most others are still playing/not available.
