| Is he any good? I know he’s not played much in the last few years but has anyone got any real insight? We might be expecting a lot more than we are going to get.
Hope not, but signs aren’t good

Considering he reached the end of January without finding himself a club, either here or in Australia, then I'd confidently say he isn't going to be an improvement on what we already have, or what we have recently released?

| I have watched him play in his 2 matches for Warrington Reserves.
Eribe Doro and Sammy Kibula had more grunt than him, with their drives forward.
Admittedly Latu is supposed not to be fully fit yet, but how long do we have to wait?

I had (these things are relative) high hopes for Kibula. Big lad, new start, new club. I assume either he's confirming why Wigan released him or he's another signing Price didn't sanction and has got a strop over?

| Latu had another year to run with Gold coast and they let him go to ease the salary cap. Was impressive when he first appeared on the scene then signed with Gold coast and has done absolutely nothing for them. Had one game for Tonga and one game for NRL all stars and that's it. As far as i've seen from him and heard from him he's just a reserve grade prop at best, he's been over here 6-7 weeks with 2 games for the reserves and a game for Widnes so if his fitness is still 5hit that's shocking. Unless he's suddenly going to turn up full force every game i'm expecting him to be on par as Kibula.
Anybody got any idea what kind of wage he's picking up from us?

Well right now he’s worth cock all. Should banging down Prices door to get at least a bench spot.

I don't think he looks even remotely like SL standard. Latu looks capable of being a bench prop if he sorts himself out and gets fit. Doro has been on the naughty step, but for both the games I have seen he worked hard, got through plenty of tackles, and got a fair few offloads away. His disadvantage is size, but that didn't stop Westwood from making the hard yards.
