Incidently by the time Greg Florimo arrived on Halifax's doorstep he was just another over paid Aussie delaying his old age retirement for one very final meal ticket. They were more than happy to oblige him.
He had a terrible season at Wigan wrecked by injury and they paid him off which allowed Fax to get him on the cheap. He played most of his season at Fax in the Centres and you ask any Fax fan if they think he was just another overpaid Aussie.
I guess its hard to compare for some Leigh fans as they obviously havnt been blessed with watching that much top flight rugby over the years but in nearly 30 years of watching Fax,most of that in the top flight, Florimo would be in my top 3 centres that I have seen for Fax along with Schuster and Austin.
