Just heard that rauhihi is to leaving the club tommorow. any one know any more?

i offered to pay for his taxi 3 years ago

well hes going anyway so it doesnt really matter!

you wearing his top from 3 years ago ?

surely you recognise this years away shirt don't you

yes, but all i see is the replica 4 man tent (don't recall seeing that in the club shop).

Is it from the the outdoor shop opposite the college on the A49

its an XL but my bum does look big in it, i'll give you that.

lets hope next seasons stripes are vertical

well i'm sure some of our forum members will confirm if that will be the case or not.

maybe you can model the new strip as it sounds like you have the body of a greek adonis.

i have the body of an Aztec temple

old and crumbling

Are we still talking about Rauhihi? Never really lived up to his billing for mine. Better young local lads coming through.

i can't confirm if he's going or staying. But did you see his reaction on saturday. When the rest of the team were celebrating in the corner. Rah rah was about 15 feet behind everyone and didn't look happy.

Struggled with his back for the last couple of years now.

He won't be here next season, to state the obvious.

And then he was good for the next two seasons.

Was in one of the rags today that being left out for Tyke meant he had played his last game.

I stuck up for him a lot early on but he proved hinslef to be a liability too often.

Good luck Rah in whatever you choose to do next. Lets have a great replacement prop forward brought in.

The weekend just gets better

harsh i know but what a load of garbage apart from the odd game here + there.

Rau was always going at the end of the season - even though he hinted that he'd like another year his injuries and recent performances wouldn't warrant another contract.

Tough on him being left out but TS was spot on given the game plan.

Its fair to say he has been a major disappiontment. Should never have got a new deal for 2009.

Cant comment on his NRL form but his Wire form has already been eclipsed by the form shown by Cooper.

Bye bye Paul

You can see him going Salford for a sesson

I hope, for Salfords sake, that he doesn't.

The guy is well and truly finished. The recent game against Wakey proved that. The residents of an old peoples home would probably be more mobile than Rauhihi

Even when i seen him in Total Fitness he didn't look in love with having to exercise.

I don't remember too many people moaning about his performances last year and most of this year until he got injured.
He was never known as a tackling workhorse prop, he was there to make yards and off load (not always spot on with those) but he was a good servant, injuries seem to get the better of his performances.
I seen him play a few times in Australia and he was more of an aggressive prop in Australia, knocking players over for fun. So my guess was that he was injured for most of his playing career with Warrington.

His form of late was poor and it was probably the right decision not to include him in the final along with Mitchell who's form was also poor hence the inclusion of Ty.

Anyway go back to knocking players, which most of you guys on here do for fun.

M8 i still clearly remember watching his 1st ever match for Warrington(Salford if my memory serves me right)on a very wet Sund afternoon + without blowing my own trumpet i said this guy is going to be a waste of space.Need i say more!Wouldn't say that's knocking a player.Just stating a fact that most fans will agree with.

Can't see him ever pulling on the P&B again. Nor me ever lamenting if he doesn't. Goodbye Rah, and thanks for the memory* (singular)


* Leeds at home a while ago now.

Sorry - but it's easy to hit a man when he's down.

Rau has played well in patches. So it's not as bad as most make out.

Having said that he has generally failed to live up to his reputation.

I'm at a loss to explain how he could be so brilliant against Leeda (referred to above) when he almost destroyed their pack single handedly and then so ordinary in other matches (excluding when he played when injured).
