| I think he seems to be one of those players who needs a lot of love and comfort.
When he is emotionally right, can be terrific, when not can very much be average. Let's hope we can make the former happen!

| Delighted with this signing - always thought he looked great for the Crusaders.
Still think we could do with 4 or 5 others of this calibre though.

| Decent signing, was good for Crusaders but not had much game time at Leeds, was he injured??
Tackle busts looks good for this season, although i wouldnt be surprised if they were all against us
Errors, missed tackles and penalties are a cause for concern but should improve with more game time

| His defence has improved a lot since he signed for Leeds. His general play however overall has been average to down right terrible.

| He could well be one of our star performers next season. He reminds me a bit of Wille Manu. He is a big lad with a bit of aggression I think that is what we lack up front.

An average of 1 error, 1 missed tackle and less than 1 penalty conceded per game. I think that is far better than any of our 2012 squad. A good signing in my eyes and as previously said, a bit like Willie Manu and what we have been missing for years.

| Was awful against us at BV along with Brent Webb.
Can only remember him for a televised kung fu style trip on Skysports.

| I think penalties and errors are more prevolent in players or teams struggling.
His opportunities for Leeds were heavily limited, so as such he is trying to make a miracle every hit up or tackle. With some more love, attention and confidence, he will play more conservatively and have a little more confidence in being picked without having to be a hero.
Seems a decent bloke from people I know who know him, no first hand knowledge. He improves our second two for sure.

He's a wide running back rower, thats where the similarity ends

| It's just my opinion but I think he is a dreadful player from what I've seen, no better than those playing for Lock Lane. He's all that is wrong with average overseas players getting undeserved contracts IMHO.
However different coach and club who knows, he certainly looks the part though I seriously doubt he is the new Willie Manu. Who knows, trust your coach I suppose.

When did you watch Lock Lane? I thought Hauraki was a good player at Crusaders, perhaps its the "Big fish, little pond" kind of thing and thats why it didn't work for him at Leeds

| I'm truly shocked that Vasty doesn't rate a Cas signing. Shocked beyond words.
