The Honey Badger has 'signed' with a new club, his first interview is box-office

He was introduced as the club's newest 'signing', but it seemed more like a publicity stunt. The CEO, Justin Rodsk of the rugby league club described it as a significant signing that had been' planned for a while 'a long time in the making'.

“A player that’s got great character, he’s proven himself on the big stage in rugby union. And for us as a club, we’re always looking to do things a little bit differently and look at opportunities to strengthen our squad and our list.

“Today’s that day and we’re pretty excited to be welcoming to the Melbourne Storm … the Honey Badger.”

Out stepped 36-year-old Cummins, decked out in his trademark headband and Storm training gear, in front of reporters.

'The opportunity came around, I was like a bull in a china shop, just wanted to go up the guts and into it, throw yourself in and give it everything you can,' said Nick in the typical Honey Badger way.

'You've got a couple of young blokes I want to show that I can still deliver the goods and push,' Cummins said.

'I know I can add something to the boys with a bit of experience and a bit of passion.'

'It's a tight group, it's tight for spots but I'll do what I can for everyone.

'The boys, how tight they are together, it's going to be hard to crack that but I know I can. It's as tight as a fat lady's sock.

'If I can get in there and add what I can, I will.'

1. "The flamboyant French? They look all right. They have a good style about them with their hairdos. I might take a few pointers and go to a stylist to sort myself out. A few of the boys tell me I look a bit ordinary at times.”

3. “My old man woke me up in the morning. He was going off like a bag of cats.”

5. “Last year we were all sizzle and no steak, but now we’re off like a brides nightie.”

7. “If I get a gig, I’m gonna go off like a cut snake.”

9. “He’s a pretty quick rooster alright. You don’t show him the sideline thats for sure.”

11. “He was huffin’ and puffin’ and, mate he did well, he always does, he’s a tough rooster.”

13. “Yeah mate, I bloody was like a rat up a drainpipe in one of them runs there.”

14. 'If you're a single Sheila and you're trying to find an Australian bloke, you duck off down there to Australia, you go to the Red Centre, you'll find there's a few shearers, a few stockmen and there you will find an Australian bloke,"

15. “I just saw the line, pinned me ears back and ended up bagging a bit of meat in the corner there, which was tops!”

17. “Yeah look, there’s a couple of big hooahs getting about.”

19. “…I’d be 37 or something for the next one and I’d need 4 facelifts and a bum tuck to be a shot.”

21. “Got a couple of knocks and a whack on the schnoz.”

23. "Going off like a raw prawn."
