England flanker James Haskell has always claimed his move to Stade Francais was not for the cash.
So it's interesting to know that his agent, Jamie Salmon, stopped working with him in January after becoming infuriated at his infatuation with cash and celebrity.
After January 1st, Haskell was free to negotiate with other clubs. Wasps made him a decent offer to stay and Salmon urged him to make a decision based on "rugby reasons".
But the player, influenced by his obnoxious father Anthony, had other ideas.
That could backfire on him now. England boss Martin Johnson has made it clear that playing abroad will jeopardise players' international hopes.
Yet Haskell has signed a pre-contract agreement with Stade and pulling out of a move will cost him dear....
