It will be fun to see Lance playing at hooker on Saturday, up against Robes. Probably the only chances he'll have this year to play at 9.

I thought he did OK in the couple of games he played there when Robes was injured

To play at hooker, he needs to practise the art of picking the ball up and passing it (accurately) to a teamate in one single movement.

interesting that one of the coaches that knows him best doesnt want to play him at no.6

Lance has done well at hooker when he has played, should be interesting.

Quote ="roader"The reason Lance isn't playing at 6. www.sthelensstar.co.uk/sport/976 ... tree_Park/'" Because he isn't one. Let's hope it may be a lesson that Rush takes away from his involvement in this game...

I think we have found the position that suits his game.All he did tonight was pick the ball up at the play the ball and pass it to the nearest player to him and he did that in slow motion.

Doesn't engage the defenders enough IMO...safe option to fill in, but that's about it

I thought his passing was poor to be honest. He looks as average a hooker as he is Stand Off.

Average. You are being very generous.I would say,crap..........

I was , I just didnt want to be accused of trolling

I think the lance hohaia problem at saints is a simple one. He can't play stand off and will never make a stand off as long as he lives, he can't play hooker and will never be anything other than a below average hooker.

If he dont play fullback, he shouldnt play at all, simple!

To be honest SP I have my doubts he could do that for us.He doesn't look interested.I hope I am wrong because we have got him for another 3 years.

Fullback has more hope for him as its his proper postion.

He's to slow at stand off and hooker, I don't mean running but his passing and speed of thought which IMO comes being used to having time and space from fullback, you just don't have that time and space at 6 or 9.

It's turned into a complete disaster of a signing!

I think he is to slow for FB.I agree a complete disaster of a signing.

Well, according to the time trials or whatever they call it at rugby training when they find out the fastest player, Hohaia is actually our fastest player. That's if you're talking about running, as opposed to speed of thought or ball passing, in which case he must be one of our slowest.

Have you ever seen that on match day.

I was on about speed of thought and speed of his passing. He's pretty quick running.

You have seen something I haven't.

They did time trials and he was one of the quickest (could have been the fastest )

He could be the fastest in SL in TIME TRIALS but I have not seen evidence of this on the pitch in a real game.Not for us and he didn't show this tonight at any time.

I am hoping he can kick on next season if we do keep him. I remember Britt having a slow first season, and I think I can also remember a fair few people wanting him gone.

He'd be better than the Slug u currently have at FB
