Stephen is a world class player and has made a fantastic contribution to Australian rugby. He will play an important role leading up to, and during the 2007 Rugby World Cup.
I think he'll go very well in rugby, I think he'll be sensational in rugby and he'll have a great future.
I have no doubt that he is ready for England . Some of the rugby out there today was of Test match intensity.
George is definitely a talented player and someone who has so much to offer Australian Rugby now, and in the future.
He's the right age, he's 24, he's arguably the best rugby league centre in the world, and I think he'd be a fair acquisition to our game if everything lines up.
