Morrison please!!!!! Lauaki could add a bit of grunt to our back line and replace Glenn Hall but for me its a no-brainer between him and Morrison as Morrison can add a lot off the field!!!

Steer well clear IMO. Not sure what Wigan see in him, then again they signed Ben Cross too.

Moreover, what has Lauaki actually ever done.

Strikes me as being one of those players who everybody perceives as being good, but is actually gash.

Also see; Keith Mason, Luke Robinson, Jon Clarke, Kris Welham, Jon Wilkin, Andy Coley, Kirk Dixon, Stephen Wild etc

Sadly, that is very true. But we have to break the cycle somewhere with our extensive numbers based around make do and "average".

Keith Mason - agree 100%. Struts around like a world beater. Never scores, never assists, never hurts legally, hardly busts or off-loads.
Luke Robinson - cracking little player.
Jon Clarke - Had one great season.
Kris Welham - decent player in a position we are desperately short of talent.
Jon Wilkin - the ultimate flat track bully.
Andy Coley - does anyone rate him outside Wigan?
Kirk Dixon - he can kick. That's it.
Stephen Wild - is he still playing? Should have been the British Steve Menzies.

Kris Welham - decent player in a position we are desperately short of talent. dont see his added value
Jon Wilkin - the ultimate flat track bully. without doubt
Andy Coley - does anyone rate him outside Wigan?no and how big is his head?
Kirk Dixon - he can kick. That's it.one trick pony
Stephen Wild - is he still playing? Should have been the British Steve Menzies.'"

GB largely correct apart from Welham and Robinson. Kris Welhams added value is that he knows the way to line, defensively very strong and busts a lot of tackles.

Always liked Robinson as a scrum half and a hooker, we probably could have signed him before he went to the giants!

Completely agree with Tigs on Mason and Coley. Not so much on Wilkin but know where you're coming from

defensively very strong ! not 3 words usually used in the same sentance as Mr Welham!! Yes he knows the way to the try-line, and on occasion puts the odd "monster hit" in but a lot of the time his positioning is carp ! weak in the tackle when defending his line as well

Lauaki - an impact player who makes no impact. No thanks.

Where have people seen this "nastiness"? We're not counting that time Rob Burrow took him on are we?
