Mathers was OK, he tried hard, won me a few bob when he scored first at Wembley, but he wasn't a GREAT signing - that Smith got Hodgson in to replace him says enough. Solomona I personally could take or leave, did some great stuff, had some shockers. But then I am

Mathers should have got MoM at the first Leeds final in 2010, loved his enthusiasm and i think he was partly the reason our defence improved, not necessarily individually but he was very vocal at the back and the players responded to him, ok the occasional brain fart but gave his all and as I've said before, anyone that puts the shirt on and shows the passion i feel for the club, i'll always give an extra bit of leeway. Still has love for us and i'll always show my respect for him.

Thought he was an important signing for us, did well as a full back joining the line in attack whereas before that our no.1 was Stuart Reardon. The style of our play was improved a bit and he did a great job before Hodge took it to the next level. Deserves massive respect for the try saving efforts in the 2010 final alone. There were at least 4 or 5, incredible effort.

Whilst I take no pleasure Worthing Wire in admitting to be right about Mathers, I just don't see many coming on here to back you up. As stated he Improved us as a back unit and then Brett carried on with the boot. Let's not forget Tony Smith wanted him to stay.

Mathers was an important signing at the time, he was what the squad needed as a likeable player and a reasonably steady influence as tony took over and was changing the environment here not saying he was key, but he was part of that transition.

He's not [ithat[/i big for a prop. He's 5'11" and 106kg. In comparison Moz is 6'3" and Gaz Carvell is 123kg.

Carvell is 113kg, Morley is 104kg, so I think he is big enough.

Weight has no bearing to power. We shall see.

Trevo Gilmeister wasn't the biggest.

How right was this guy? Totally underwhelmed by Asotasi so far!

I think next time I'll STFU.

^ I like this guy

He's been brilliant..... i don't know what all the moaning is for.

He runs the ball in hard. He does decent long stints. he puts big defensive hits in. he is a LEADER and potential man of steel.

Plus his half back qualities running into the line and giving it at the last minute.

Has anyone even seen him kick in training or given him the opportunity? I think we could have an El-Masri type kicker on our hands.

C'mon give the lad a break, after all he's on holiday, he doesn't need this.

Might change my username to 'Asotasis Sun Lounger'

Asotasi's beach towel

Flip FLOP?

Up to now anyway, mind you he'll come good when he gets over his undoubted homesickness it must be hard adjusting

Need to forward this to 'things a ...(Yed) fan wouldn't say'

should have waited for Hannant instead

Maybe we could do a straight swap for Asotasi I think he's making those numbers - 50 metres from six runs -- ...!!! he'll fit right in........

I'd swap him for a tackle bag.

I'd give him away in the time my brain ponders on when to put the space in between a heartbeat.

What realistic replacements are available though? Huby from cas?

maybe we should have listned to the bloke who watches NRL on tv!
