I thought Sao had put on a bit of timber tbh but maybe it's planned

Sao was the worst player we had last year Total liability Unfit and I assume carrying injuries when ‘fit’ I don’t go to many games because I live in Australia so you get a free shot on that one I buy a lot of Merch and offered to buy a small % of the Club when Adam sent me the Prospectus about 9 months ago. I’ve bought season passes from here in Melbourne before Anyways - Sao just looks slow on the FB videos the Club regularly posts and I saw 2 instances of him looking like a typical slow forward in the Cas clips from Last ( which were very revealing ) The last 4-5 years have been the worst rugby ever served up by FC and I’m keen as many are to see the team Galvanise behind the new owners and coaching staff and I have already popped some cash on FC beating Dragons at $3.75 I will be up at 4am watching that one or whatever time it’s on

Had the club's hierarchy, employed more suitably qualified backroom staff, instead of pouring all income into unscouted signings, maybe we would've been more competitive.??. When Myler arrived, he stated, "The club is not fit for purpose" I'm confident it is now....

As for Sao I agree with others that it would be difficult to tell from those highlights anyone’s fitness and it was the first friendly of the season. We have a coach who promised the players will be fit, and seemingly acted upon this with a player whose ink was barely dry on a 3 year deal. Last season was a total shambles, but I think we should just give everyone a clean slate and trust the coaching set up. Sao is in the last year of his contract, if he doesn’t perform to standard he’ll be out, but I think he’ll prove like most of his Hull career to be a solid forward. He seems a decent bloke and I’m sure will be wanting to write a few wrongs from last year.

It’s like reading quotes where some words have been removed. Sao has many attributes -fitness is usually one of them, effort,passion and no little skill. As so often happens behind keyboards criticism is much more likely to be spouted and rarely balanced with praise. So in that vain if Sao can cut out the indiscipline and ill advised offloads we have the forward who was so good for Samoa in the World Cup
