Why anyone would sign anyone that can only give you 30 minutes and has a shocking disciplinary record is beyond me. Unless we’re struggling for numbers?

JMB Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Not sure he is worth the money, as he won't come cheap, the cash could be used better in my opinion, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think of the pro rata cost and what you’d get for the money he’d be asking for. Seems senseless to even consider it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anok4u Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Just having him on the team sheet will put fear into some teams, he's virtually unstoppable near the line and worth every penny imo... 5 go **** yasell ya little **** gain NL1 then take ya **** out ya dads **** then speak proper rugby talk. you jameating little spotty ****...itchy waa waa 2008...

havenhater Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 He wasn't mentioned in the fans forum was he? I doubt we would be getting him when there is other forwards we have targeted apparently they appear still to be free agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a load of rubbish, how can you say he virtually retired? He was excellent in every game he played for us, his disciplinary record wasn't anything like shocking. As ever your way off.

And if he gets another he’s likely to get another 4. We need a young hungry prop who can do minutes to cover Olly, not some has been. If you know anything about rugby you’ll know that.

townie88 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I said the other week I thought it had been quiet regarding signings? One or two in before the Ike game would be nice. Always hard to judge in the opening friendlies as we basically field 2 different teams and its hard to fins consistency. Does the new 8 subs, rather than 10 apply to us this year? Fui may be asked to up his minutes if so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very hard to find one of those available who would be as dangerous as Fui ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidM Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 I’m split on this tbh and can see it both ways . Ultimately the guys down there know the sums and the coach and conditioning team knows what to do with the players , so I’ll go with that . I can’t knock Fui at all , he put it the hours , effort and commitment to us and gave everything as well as being a great character . If we moved on fine , but as a proud guy who feels he can offer more and we’re happy with the deal then fine to. He’s talismanic . We have the props to cover an impact like Fui if we sign him and he can still do things and cause intimidation few others can 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
havenhater Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 There's plenty ex players who are free agents who I think we should personally be looking at.

Very dubious sending off at Bradford, he was very good for us last year, in fact our only consistent line breaking threat that actually tired out defences. You could see the difference he made on opposition middles after each spell, if he isn't back on board this year, we really need to replace that kind of fire power which is not really Olly's style, who leads more by example whilst Tom and Stevie are not really line breakers, out and out workhorses (which every team needs) Tickle doesn't offer that sort of threat either in my opinion.
