A severe bout of homesickness during the New Zealander’s first season in the Premiership with London Irish three years ago forced him to consider doing a U-turn of 12,000 miles with his wife Sarah. Peter Jackson writes in the Daily Mail.
"Had the Fluteys gone home, there would have been no Premiership Grand Final with Wasps, no Professional Players’ Association player of the year award, no England caps, no Lions tour. The history man had to settle for being the second Maori behind Henry Paul to play for England but the first to score a try."
