i cought a bit of argars interview after the game. Im sure agar was talking about lauaki but not 100% and he said...... he is a very emational guy and the guy is in the dressing room blaming himself. or somthing along them lines.

Im sure he will come good

I dont get the chance to see the games down here but I saw Tonga V Kiwis a few months ago and
Lauaki was getting himself involved off the ball a few too many times and the Kiwis started to wind him up.
No doubt he is 100% commited, he just doesnt know how to control it properly. I'm sure it will come, perhaps Fitz
is the man to help him, he seems very "Zen" like.

Agar mentioned in the post match interview that luauaki was a "nice fella" or along those lines, but they have to sort his discipline out sometime,

Agar needs to take him to one side and have a quiet (and proffesional) word with him imo.

still, looking on the bright side, his presence should ensure we don't win the fair play award this year

What happened pitch side when he came off?

Hame will either be: Villain or Hero, that is the way it will be..

saw him after the game and he looked gutted about it or maybe he was thinking what a stupid idea it was to wear flip flops in minus 5 degrees.

we were sat 10 yards from him on the half way line and I have to say i was gobsmacked as he started effing and jeffing at some crusaders fans that were giving him some banter and then stuck his middle finger up at the stand!!
I would not be surprised if he gets a warning from the club over this as certain club officials were not happy about shall we say which was plain to see!!
not professional Hame , shouldnt do that mate!!

Fitz made his views perfectly clear to him while they were under the posts waiting for the conversion of the last Crusaders try!

In all seriousness I believe Lauaki is related to a former great in Tevita Vaikona who's a mate of mine at the rugby club

I dont think that will be the last time someone will this week pal!!
He will come good and he is explosive thats for sure, he is certainly no waster like Miava was he is committed thats for sure but off the ball hits are no joke and just gives other teams yardage from penalties, to be fair Hame was awful yesterday and made worse by his middle finger gesture and swearing at the fans .
Needs to settle but I am sure that has been addressed already, hes just trying too hard at present to make a difference

He was poor yesterday and he does get wound up. However i would take that over no passion everyday of the week. He will imporve and the coaching staff and fellow players will help his discipline improve.
