A bag of oats and a few carrots as a win bonus?

IF he plays against Cas this week. Struggling to get a game.

Thats the money shot there....he is struggling to get in the Leeds team.

Why would any superleague team want to pay a player to play less that 50% of the season.

He is old and i wouldnt of been happy with his signing. I would much rather have Holmes, Jones, Ferres, Emmitt in my team anyday of the week.

It's so sad that you cas fans are sooooo bitter, that's the reason I laughed my head off when we sent you down 2006, and I will laugh again when richard wrights lies fail to get you the money to build a stadium, while we are banging top 4 super league spots every season in a shiny new stadium !!! Let the good times roll !!! Woooohoooo

Your dream will only come true if the people of Wakefield get out of their armchairs or off their barstools and support you in large numbers....your last golden era ended 40 years ago and your city has changed a lot since then.

Back on topic in think Lauitiiti is a useful signing for you, injury prone now maybe but like Fozzard has been for us could have a positive effect on your younger squad members.

Sheer quality. Clearly living in dream land.

Don't we all - Cas fans included?

a tip mate Buca is a Leeds fans

Its your Fans that have a league win against us as there avatar and Your fans that are obsessed with us on our board

Grow up cant wait for lupset juniors to reopen, Damn sckool hols

It's so sad that you Wakey fans are soooo deluded you think that us mocking you making average signings is bitter, good to see the inferiority complex is still there.

As for the stadiums, don't get me started you're going to be sorely disappointed, where has all your delusion come from? Because you got saved by Wales?

Top 4 finishes? Wakefield?

not signing crap like Andy Ellis & Ali Lauititi bloody hell, talk about over rating your new signings.

This is just the start for us buddyboy, we had to take brough off your hands to make him into a superstar, remember ? the words Rangi Chase and one man team spring to mind, cant wait to see your "quality" when he departs. Bring it onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn !!

"Hey ! where are those packed buses going with NEWMARKET on the front ?"

So when does our newest moron get banned then?

This is is probably the worst of the lot!

Ah well, the ignore list just got bigger.

truth hurts

First time ive used ignore list , Nice i like it

to the horse racing

At least todger-measuring will be about rugby for a couple of years.

Morrison and Southern will be good for the younger players. Very experienced at the top level. Ryan Tongia could be promising. Ali is an impact player, fifteen minutes at the end of each half. He could be effective if there are some quick backs to get onto his off-loads. If there aren't, then he won't be. Peter Fox was good. Young enough to be good again. Just maybe having a poor season.

I would probably swap your pack for ours, you can muscle up with the better sides, but it's what the coach does with them that matters. Neither of us know who our coach will be, and that appointment will determine how we both fare beyond any pack-measuring contests.

Neiiighhhh they aren't.

His career stats like playing in an NRL grand final, being Dally M Second Rower of the year, playing in 5 grand finals, winning 4, and 2 WCC, 19 caps for NZ, winning a tri nations and playing in a World Cup final. I mean thats a decent return but he is no Brett Ferres is he

This is the Cas board - facts have no place here.

Let's see here:
NRL grand final was ALL his doing, not the other members of the squad
How many years ago was he second rower of the year? Yes he USED to be good but how good is he NOW?
Winning all those trophies again, all down to him nobody else in the squads was it?

And no point using Ferres as a name with me - I think he's vastly over rated and a poor player with a terrible rugby brain.



Because you and your fellow cellar dwelling friends use facts all the time right?



Ah well, 2 more for the ignore list and again I have to question why these 2 aren't banned from the Cas board, especially Smokey.

Nothing wrong with Smokey. Sure he may be mildly annoying and likes breaking quotes up incessantly. Oh, and argues about pointless things. But at least he can string a sentence together.

And I have to say this thread mildly amuses me. It's good to see we're arguing the toss over Ali Lauitiiti and not franchise stuff.

Well it was the same year he was named as Dally M Second Rower of the year. So i guess he had something to do with it.
He is. He isnt as good as he was but he is a natural gamebreaker and we will struggle to replace him. It is a commonly held belief of Leeds fans he is Leeds greatest ever overseas player.
I think you have missed the fairly obvious logic that bad players arent in a position to win that many trophies, and bad players certainly dont win Tri-nations or play in WC finals. Ali was a massive influence in all the trophies he won at Leeds.

Ali, is still better at what he does than any of the 2nd rowers at Cas. In fact possibly only Solomona could challenge him in the league. His impact and offloading ability is 2nd to none and i dont think it is controversial to say he has a fairly decent claim to being the best 2nd rower he have seen in SL. Yes he is getting on a bit, and getting him on the field is a bit of of a problem but he still offers something which is as rare as rocking horse poop. I expect if we didnt have a salary cap he would have been kept on at Leeds
