We do sing his name. Have you not heard about his massive........

Agree with everything Marshy has said on this thread and would just add that Sione looks to be in exactly the same place Vowles found himself during his first dozen games. IIRC Vowles turned the corner with a monster try-saving tackle against Oldham at Boundary Park on the Friday before one of the May Bank Holidays. Sione has the time and ability to repeat that sort of change in fortunes but he shouldn't have to endure the same sort of abuse in the meantime.

good am glad has it my opinion not yours! cant see were i have taken my ball home! just because an not part of the happy clapper gang!

Have you not heard Sione's song...?

I'm all for giving players a chance, but it's been 9 games! I'm willing to see what he can do - because I still think we haven't seen the best of him. We haven't really seen much so far so thats why people are starting to get frustrated. I think it's to do with his confidence.

Not sure whether this is a serious remark or not. Do you believe 9 games is sufficient to make a judgement on a new player?

No I don't. Thats why I said, "I'm willing to see what he can do - because I still think we haven't seen the best of him." But people think he should have done more in 9 games - thats why they're getting on his back at games.

like i said he only here for one year! won't be long before TM starts looking for next year! really hope he kicks on and i eat my words!! but dont think he will and thats my opinion

I still don't think how Sione has played warrants supporters getting on his back, he's done some really good things in that time and looked a class apart, his tackling for sure - I remember when I first saw him play it was like watching Nikau reborn and he seems to have even more strings to his bow than T had.

I think maybe one of the reason's he's not been performing as we would like, is that he played a number of games at stand off and IMO that didn't work too well, but fortunately TM has now put Rangi there and moved Sione into a position he's much more suited to, in the back row, very different roles.

I think he's a star in the making as a back row forward, but definitely not so as a stand off half, although I think he's been playing more like a stand off in the back row and when he start playing more like a back row, we will see Sione running out wide and ripping defences apart.

As far as the songs go, I can't remember hearing the one mentioned and really I have to say I'm pleased I haven't, if we are going to sing about him, please let it be for how he smashes players to the ground with his big hits and not about parts of his anatomy, the word crude springs to mind.

hope your right m8
