Probably. That's what has everyone in a big tizzy though. No one has actually said anything as far as I can tell.

You're a bloody weird specimen of a Queenslander, you know that? Most of you wanted to lynch all those players who headed to the Western Force for money, but you're happy to have JOC (James O'Connor)?
Jeez I understand things up there need bolstering, but a guy who is walking in for a year, then planning to leave, isn't much chop quite frankly.
Its the nature of professional sport I suppose, but if I was the ARU I'd tell him to fuck off.

I never said I was happy to have him. Desperation does change ones perspective somewhat though.
All I was saying is, if he was planning on only coming back for 1 or two years then taking off again it would be slightly better if he was up front about it.
If the Reds or ARU still want him knowing that then no harm no foul.
But yeah, not the first time I've been called weird.

Should an Australian provincial deal not be forthcoming, O’Connor would likely exercise an two-year option on his current deal with French Top 14 champions Toulon.
“Initially, anyway, an Australian province needs to want to hire me. But there is no guarantee I’ll be included in the squad for the World Cup. If they don’t plan to pick me, I’ll stay at Toulon next winter.”

If this is all fair dinkum then he comes across as a giant douche, but we kind of knew that already. I don't want that kind of attitude anywhere near the Wallabies.

Phase 1 has been achieved. He's baaaaaaaack and Red.
Phase 2. Any news on his intentions life post RWC? Is it all Parlez vous Francais?

So that will be Season 2015 and 2016 in Red.
2017 is ?
Is he hoping for a tilt at gold as part of the 2016 Olympics Rugby 7's squad?
Billy Pulver didn't seem all that interested in his return to Gold compared to their investment in KHunt.

I couldn't help but notice in part of an interview braodcast last night JOC (James O'Connor) said something like: The Reds was the right option for him and his career.
Who advises this guy?

Or maybe he could have refrained from talking about what's best for him at all. It's been a large part of his problem in the past. Remember how moving from the Force to the Rebels was going to be good for his brand?

That's part of the problem I think. The latest in a long line of families giving poor advice to their young and famous sons/daughters. I recall Lleyton Hewitt was like that early in his career. He turned out OK in the end, but was as much of a douchenozzle as JOC (James O'Connor) at the same age.

Could be said the horse is standing next to a horse's arse also.
