interesting read, reading between the lines seems Kersten spat the dummy over more forwards being recruited and squeezing him out. Players and coaches dont always see eye to eye especially if their position in the team is at risk. Interesting also as he is Hamlings best mate, he seems to be playing alright and doesnt appear disgruntled.
More likely kersten can see he is out and has asked to be cut early so he can still enjoy the northern summer, I heard he is part Croatian but might be wrong, the summer is nice there now, and get himself right to kick tons of goals at Souths next year.
