[@treymalike157]

Watch everyone cling onto Quade until he has an off game, then he’s back in the pile with everyone else Aussie fans and media discards. I was disgusted with how ruthless wallabies fans and media were towards him when he struggled, saying he wasn’t even Australian, denying him citizenship and then laughing in his face when he was emotional about it. All love and positivity towards you Quade from a fan that always knew you had footy in you.

[@powerbite92]

Because he's in with a total narcissist and hypocrite in SBW and a total psychopath in Khoder Nasser, thats why. Oh, and the likes of Mufti Menk as well.

The emotional and psychological growth from Quade has been immense. Kudos to SBW for being a great brother, and for instilling such vital life principles into everyone he meets. Once you know that there's more to life than footy, and talk about family & the mind... you're in self-actualization phase ❤

SBW went thru a rough journey too when he was still a young pup at the dogs and had everything in the world at his feet. Same for QC. both of them have come out great. He repeated a few times that the game is just a small part of his life now(although important). ask him that question 4-5 years ago and it would be the other way around - hes grown a lot

That's awesome with SBW, didn't know about their mateship. On Oz citizenship, I'm 100% sure he'll be given it once he meets the requirements of time spent in AU over previous 12 months, I think the previous applications were submitted when his previous 12 months had major chunks of living in Japan and France. A pity he didn't apply for it years ago when he was playing for the reds, would of been done & dusted.........although his life may have taken a different route and we may never have seen this awesome comeback.
