Hurrel himself admited he was unfit at the end of the season he's off home to Tonga for a while wants to visit his mums grave for the first time since 2019

Hurrell looks like a guy at the end of his career, winding down and looking to the next phase of his life.

Was actually quite sad watching him on Saturday clearly in his current physical state not being able to play at that level which clearly contributed to some of his actions born out of frustration.

I wouldn’t though write him off.

I’d say it’s a case of it going 1 of 2 ways. He could continue on the path he is on and go through the motions and play out his final year or the break and return home be exactly what he needs to motivate him for 1 last push.

I actually hope it’s the latter as he’s a great character and great entertainer and would be great to see him produce a few more highlight moments in probably his last year in the top flight.,

I agree if I was him I would want the fans to remember me fondly rather than someone who was a has been.

Hang his head in shame for going home after the season is over? Behave

If he comes back another stone overnight then you will have a point

I didn’t mean that, I was referring to his physical condition.
