Marmite forward , some love him some hate him

Lauaki has had a raw deal in a way.The opposition were scared stiff of him when he first came here,but then he was obviously told to curb his aggression,and he has struggled a bit since.

oh yes im morley,graham,peacock ect where very scared. even burrow dident back down lol

Well i must have been watching some other game apart from our's,as when he first arrived players realised the aggression and strength he had,and were worried.He frightened the opposition,but then his aggression was curbed.Even on sunday,it was taking 3 and 4 players to halt him,but then there is the other side of him-suspect defence,and a penalty machine.

Agree with that.Personally would like to see him stay as he can cover both prop and second row.

So you'd rather let Moa go?

one of my favourite moments in all my time of supporting FC - and Burrow was binned. lmao

i like hame and would want him to stay and been able to play both prop and backrow gives you good options but like you say we can only have 1 i think so its moa for me but this makes the heremia signing strange

You may be right, but if it's a straight choice and not saying it will be but who would you keep, for me there's no doubt i'd keep Moa everytime, he's dangerous everytime he gets the ball and strong in defence too!

Strangely i thought this thread was about longy now its about lauaki

Maybe it's now just more to do with shape of next seasons squad with the signings we have now made for next season

Long, Hame, Phelps and Fitz out .... McKinnon, Seymour, Ellis and Heremiaia in must surely leave a few few quid spare on the cap.

We have to pay gleeson and compensate him for earning peanuts this year (assuming he's here)

That will account for less than the difference between Ellis and Longs wage surely.

Sam moa will get a rise aswell if he stays to his current contract
