I've been really impressed with him after being under whelmed when he was announced as a new signing, if he continues they way he started he will be seen as an integral part of the team and I didn't expect I'd back saying that 2 months ago.

| Thought he was supposed to be lazy? Works as hard as any forward in our side, seemed to be taking the ball up at least once in every set whilst he was on the field. Nice bit of work as a fullback yesterday as well!  |

| Well so far he's made me eat my words. I must admit when we signed him, I (and quite a few others on here) criticized the coaching staff.
They obviously saw something we couldn't in him (tht's why they are paid the big bucks I suppose).  |

I always liked the signing of Lauaki and defended it from the start. He adds something different to the team and to the forwards which we have lacked in our pack in previous seasons. With Lauaki and Hock back we have much more of a X factor in the forwards and much more line breaking and offloading potential.

RLFans finest:
[quote="Saint77777":3t42372l]Maguire was a black mark on RL in this country. Whilst coaches like Daniel Anderson and Brian McLennan won championships on the back of exciting Rugby league, Maguire set out to win at all costs, evident by the way Danny Maguire was seriously injured and laughed at on the floor by the wigan players as he writhed in agony. Then there has been the constant bending back of limbs, trying to seriously maim the opposition. Even Phil Clarke has jumped on the bandwagon with his disgusting comments about the Danny Maguire incident.
I think its fitting that the 2 fairest teams in the comp, who have been on the receiving end of Wigans tactics should contest the Grand Final and make it a proper family day out instead of the knuckle dragging, salivating neanderthals from Wigan, that would pour into manchester on grand final day.
I for one cant wait to mingle with the Leeds fans and have a beer with them, rather than having to watch my arms and legs, should wigan have got there.[/quote:3t42372l]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_54062.gif |

Not actually seen a game yet but sounds good, been no complaints on here, which is perculiar...
Hopefully he can keep it up.

With Lauaki and Hock out there no one will bully this Wigan pack.
Lauaki has been very good so far, no reason that should change either!

I've been pleasantly surprised, too - wasn't all that excited when he was signed, but he's done a good job for us.

| He has been a quality so far addition imo and adds something different than we had before. Some of the comments about him at the beginning of the season on here were just ludicrous. Im sure these comments will be dug out when the time is right and some people will be very, very embarrassed  |

I guess a few people, including myself, have changed their opinion about Eric. After Sunday match and his "willingness" to protect some of the youngsters was a credit to the bloke. hope he keeps improving over the season.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

Some of us had an open mind and gave him a chance.... |

Can't say I've been overly impressed, but I haven't been unimpressed either.
