I would have thought if he could play, he wouldn't have retired. Doesn't seem to have a particularly strong tie to West either - everyone talks of his link with the riverland instead.

Some feel he may become involved with Westies at some level.

And, personally, I'm sure Westies will see more of him (even if as a spectator), which can only benefit the club.

Looking at the original post, the question is asked of Westies fans. That makes it relevant to this board I would have thought.
