But when Wakefield came up with a lucrative deal, the veteran of 22 Tests and former Melbourne Storm premiership-winner decided to take up the challenge.

The post was captioned "Not the halftime vape," and sent Instagram into meltdown before Proctor eventually removed it.
But it was too late for the Titans, who fined Proctor $15,000 before terminating his contract.
"His actions were in breach of both NRL and stadium regulations," Gold Coast said in a statement.
Kiwi-born Proctor played nearly 300 games in the NRL for the Storm and Titans.
