Not sure why that's funny? He has a history of mental health and alcohol problems. If his hearts not in it then good luck to him.

I wish him the best. Interviewed he always seemed very genuine. I just watched that doco on Any Winehouse. Some people just aren't cut out for fame. I suspect Jamal is one of them.

Seems like a nice bloke, hope he finds whatever he's looking for in life.

Because some supporters couldn't care less about other teams players, but are first to make excuses for our own players.

never liked him..simple really

[John Corey]

Openly admitted he doesn't have the same drive to be the best that other athletes have. He plays for fun and if he stops having it then he doesn't want to play.
Be interesting to see how he is going to keep the weight off now. I imagine he will pack the kilos on without constant training. I wish him all the best. Seen him interviewed plenty of times and he has always got a huge smile on the dial.

Once he realises that he will never make the money he can make out of League he will pop up again.

He is & has always been a immature person IMO & like I said when he is out digging holes or being the stop go guy he will realise what a lucky person he is to have the talent & size to play NRL & get very well paid for it.
