He is no project..he has the capability to be devastating every game..he needs to channel his aggression...he is a very strong aggressive player..as I have posted on our board he is capable of winning or losing games at the moment..I believe he will settle and I am more than happy with the signing...for entertainment value if nothing else

Think your mixing up your tongans, tis Sam Moa that is the project. Hame is tried and tested internationally and within the NRL.

When was the last time a Derby was played with snow on the ground?. The Reagal Trophy Final in 1985 IIRC. news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/ ... gion=world

There is already a Luaki thread on your own board, opinions range from big and very daft through to tempreament problems.

You choose.

IMO if both teams play anything like i can't see beyond a Hull victory.

Get Webster running at Long. Test their wings out under kicks. Keep disciplined. They get on the front foot, it'll be hard to turn it round. Put them under pressure, I think they might panic.
Play the occasionally Maligned Morgan Way.

Sounds simple enough...

You fancy a coaches job mate?




When you say they may panic,do you mean the team or the fans?

I think the players might pick up on some of the negativity surrounding Agar and if things go against them, feel a little extra pressure.

Neither team will be carrying loads of confidence into the match. spirit, enthusiasm, composure and all those intangible things will be important.

It'd be hard enough to predict given the two teams erratic form, chuck in the derby element and I can imagine just about any outcome.

I think some of the KR players may pick up on the negativity surronding Justiniho...mind you one thing is a fact it will not be the Aussie players


Suppose it works both ways tbh.

Not at all confident about this one, Hull have their weaknesses but I do worry about our ability to pick up on these and target them. Wakey were woeful down their right hand side the week before we played them, after initially scoring down that side we spent the rest of the game going down our own right.

I reckon Long will be the difference, he's made a career out of turning up for the big games, and especially the televised ones.

We will miss Cobon more than anything, his hard yards in our own 20 have been outstanding this year and if we replace him with Cockayne then I really worry about that wing.
