Changes to infobox and lead edit

Fleets, I would like to offer an explanation of my changes to the infobox and lead of this page, as you still continue to revert them:

  • I removed "Sauce" from the nickname field as it is unsourced. I can find no reference to it online, let alone from a credible source.
  • I removed the "country" field. This does not even exist within the template.
  • I added wikilinks to his place of birth. I see no reason as to why this should be plain text.
  • I removed Connecticut Wildcats from the infobox as it equivalent to any local amateur club in Australia or the UK, despite the playing in the top-level competition of the United States.
  • I added the year his most recent international match was played as representative selections are, by nature, not continuous.
  • I believe American Australian (Australian of American descent) better describes him than Australian-born American (which I personally interpret as an American whose only connection to Australia is their place of birth; an American citizen born abroad).
  • I refer to the second-tier rugby league competition in England simply as "the Championship" because other competitions, such as the NRL and SL, are not referred to by sponsorship names.
