It was 2005.

It might be time to move on, but he remains our one real game-breaker in the pack when on form, and we need to replace that function.

He's been a Very good player in the past and still shows sparks of this from time to time......but......he isn't consistent enough to be offered a new contract imho.

I wish him all the best in the future though, excellent servent to the Club and the game of Rugby League over the last 7 or so years.

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.:1157.jpg



Best import Leeds have had in the SL era? Has been a fantatsic player, but those days are behind him now. Wish him all the best for the next stage of his career.

Offering him a Reduced Contract stops good young talent stepping up imo.

All good things.....

There is no replacement for Lauitiiti in our current squad at the moment I'd say so any replacement looks like it will have to come in from the outside.

Quote: mirfieldrhino "He's a good impact player IMO. Strong running and soft handed with decent pace (still) for someone his size. We currently don't have another player who can have the same influence on a game that Lauitiiti has when he comes off the bench.'"


where do you get that he still has pace .i seem to remember agianst wigan the other month i think it was tomkins that put a kick through and ali looked to be going backwards all the best to him though i hope he goes on for a few more years in union but i think leeds need to look for some new blood and shake things up abit too many players have slipped into just going through the motions

I would not give him a new contract... But the S' thing is even at his present performance levels I would still rather 'ave him than Kirke.

On that basis he does deserve a new contract. Probably a longer one than Kirke has just " earned " icon_smile.gif

Not sure what French union teams would be willing to take a punt on a 32 year old RL player who hasn't played RU since school. Sound like agent talk to me.

Toulon would probably have him. They'll take anyone who doesn't seem too French.

He'll go straight into the All Blacks Team just like Sonny Bill Williams icon_ask.gif

I have previously thought that he might make a number 8, but maybe that was more on build than ability? His handling in the forwards in Union would still make him a stand out player.
