Wakefield Trinity Wildcats have completed a busy day of transfer activity by confirming the signing of Samoa international Ali Lauitiiti, just a day after he revealed his seven-year stay with Leeds Rhinos was coming to an end.

The 32-year-old forward, who has also represented New Zealand, has signed a two-year deal with the Wildcats.



i know they arent making brilliant signings but it is an improvemnet on the team they have this year. we havent even secured anyone to replace deano and guessing fozz will leave this year.

We need to get the coach sorted and some players signed up asap. Especially the youngsters

What does this have to do with Cas?

They were also in the running for his signature, but appear to have been "gazumped" as it were.

Still it's a high risk/high reward signing, if he plays as he can then we have got an entertaining and experienced player, however it depends on how much he's got left in the tank and whether he can stay injury free.

Don't rate him now. If he had been a few years younger and fit, then he would have been a good signing.

On another note, Wakefield do seem to be getting a lot of people on board. I just wonder who is behind the signings, is it their board/chairman or is it their new coach who has not yet been announced. Seems a bit daft to me signing all these players if whoever the new coach is doesn't rate them.

Still walk into the cas back row pal

"Walk" being the operative word, he wouldn't run!

Nothing whatsoever, so shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhh !!!!

Nah, only do 80 minute men thanks........

Apart from he wouldn't.

He's crap and the fact Cas have apparently made Wakey over pay for him makes the signing even worse for them.

Since when

Bitter and jealous, Richard wright is skint

It's the old "we didn't want him anyway" attitude. Check his career stats, and cry in your beer when he's walking all over your pack next season !

Good, we prefer to produce our own
