when he was fit he was a good prop and defiantly a 1st team player.

They tried to sign him in the preseason but Wane said no so he will more than likely be going there next season.

Think most fans at Wigan pretty much expect this given previous rumours at the back end of last year.
He's been a fine signing for Wigan and will do a good job in the NRL.

You can put a spin on it all you like but Lauaki and Powell were poor signings for Wigan.
Wane is an amazing coach and most of his signings have been excellent and he usually knows how to get the best out of players, but he isn't perfect and can make poor signings like any other coach. I have a feeling that this one could be another.

Lauaki was a far from poor signing, i know hull fans don't like to believe it but he was a good player for Wigan. other than the 2 brain farts against warrington that everybody loves to remember he was quite a solid player.
Powell looked like he could be a great signing but i guess you can't scout for mentality, he basically gave up because he said it was to hard and he picked up a neck injury.
Struggling to remember a poor signing from Shaun, you say the two above i would agree Powell was but that was more down to mentality. People used to say Gelling was useless and we had signed a dud but look at him now.
The more i have watch Tauti on highlights the more I am impressed because its not the usually loads of shoulder charges and massive runs its more solid hard work.

you don't have to rip it up to be a good player. He did what wigan wanted him to, drive it in hard and tackle well and he did that.

I must have seen him a few times playing for Wigan and he looked the same player as he was at Hull, nothing but average, for a bloke his size and with his skills (which he showed at times) he should be doing more than he did, you can get kids out of the academy to drive hard and tackle well, you dont sign a overseas player on decent money and on a 4 year deal to be average, his stats last year are poor.
On the subject of Gelling, always liked him, he has mistakes in his game, but always thought he has the X factor about him, and he is finally showing it with a decent run in the team. I said about two years ago when he was struggling to get into the Wigan side he would be a good signing for us.
Also dont be fooled by video highlights, Richie Barnett looks the worlds best winger if you watch his highlights on youtube.

He played as well as most of our props bar mossop, he was far from a poor signing.
Im not basing my expectation on highlights but if you look on tube you will that there is a highlight of his general game player not just the best bits.

| I must have been watching a different Lauaki and Wigan clearly signed a different one.
The one I saw was a slow, penalty machine with an occasional ability to bust a tackle and 99% of Hull fans were scratching their heads when Wigan signed him.
