What on earth was he doing!? He should not be attempting an offload every tackle, even if it does make it more interesting

9/10 times it doesn't...

Gave away daft penalties one leading to a try.

Always does it,,,heard he is after another year with the Wire,,,Would you give him it?

Nope. You could count his good games for the club on one hand...

Ive stuck up for him a lot. Im losing patience with him now. He does some good stuff but theyre overshadowed by his errors.

Hes too much of a liability.

If he didn't offload all the time, we might not have got the extra game time.

He does okay, the problem is it is too stressful watching him when you know he could offload at any ridiculous oppertunity

Get rid.

Personally I think he is a mile behind Morley and Carvell plus I think Harrison, wood, cooper and probably picks when fully rehabilitated are better than him.

Gives us a quota option for next season and frees up some decent space on the cap.

i cant Ts giving him another year he has played some good games but his handling errors will cost us a game one day like the c.c semi

like some one said before wood cooper will be the replacements props next season

I think @ his age & with the younger guys knocking on the door we should let him go. The game called out yesterday for a big performance off the bench & he didn't have that much game time & that big an impact off the bench from what i can remember

Lets not all go hammering rau,the guy is 80 mins away from wembley,
no one would begrudge him a place on the bench for a challenge cup final,
Yeah he does throw one or two loose balls or makes the wrong decision sometimes but that could be how smith wants him to play???!!

Any player whose main strength is offloading will always make errors due to the way they loosely carry the ball.

The other player who springs to mind at present is Gareth Hock. When his offloads come off he looks a genius, when they dont he looks a liability.

Same with Rauhihi ....

With regards to his contract situation. If the coaching staff believe he is the best option for next season then I have faith in their assessment. If they believe that either a new signing or that Cooper ( or Pickersgill - however not holding my breath) is ready to step up and be the 4th prop on a regular basis then I have faith in that assessment also.

As fans we are great at picking up on players weaknessess. Look at players who come/came under fire from supporters.
Wainwright and Clarke for instance. Both under fire from supporters but both, who if the players picked the team, would be one of the first names on the team sheet due to the unseen,unheralded work that they do.

Just remember the team won yesterday made up of 17 players who collectively did the job required .. end of story
