The 32-year-old has barely graced the field since leaving Manly mid-season and is weighing up his options for 2018.

He is signed to Melbourne for next season but has attracted interest from the English Super League.

The 30-game Queensland Origin Veteran joined the Sea Eagles at the end of 2015 and had arguably his worst season in the top flight last year.

And with a level of forward depth drawing the admiration of any club, Melbourne would easily afford to let him walk.

The now fringe forward is expected to make a call in the coming weeks.
