Akermanis also said he was in good enough shape to return to play for the injury-hit Dogs in the finals, but he didn't want to.
"I could easily go to training and see how it (the body) is.
"But stuff that. Why would I want to go back to that miserable job?
"The minute they rang me I'd say piss off."
