In many ways Nero is the sort of overseas player the authorities are trying to drum out of the British game. He was a virtual unknown when he left the St George Illawarra Dragons for Huddersfield as a 22-year-old in 2002, relying on an Italian passport to secure a work permit, and for all the respect that his unflashy virtues command from his team-mates, he is not the type to put bums on seats. But for every headline-grabbing import who has contributed to Bradford's success in the Super League era, such as the Paul brothers and Lesley Vainikolo, there has been at least one such grafter.

Well I thought it was Italy aswell, but it doesn't matter really.
