Thats rubbish, plenty of players have played well and improved under Agar, you only have to look at Sam Moa.

I honestly can't believe you have signed him never mind giving him a 3 year deal.

The 2nd worst import I have seen at Hull since we have been at the KC.

His weight and fitness isn't a problem, he has no heart and doesn't run his weight, very, very poor defender. Discipline on paper isn't bad but he is prone to giving away daft penalties, such as when he has the ball.

Wigan and Wane will really have there work cut out to get their moneys worth.

We don't know what their money's worth is though. Can't see Lauaki being on a massive wedge of our cap

I'm not as disappointed as some on here with this signing. Our pack needed bolstering and although I'm happy to hear that Wane and Leneghan want to use the academy to back up the first team more regularly I wouldn't want us to be totally reliant on it, especially up front, where experience is probably more important

He is going to have to. He has played 51 SL games and made 613 tackles. An average of 12 per game



EDIT: And Coley was putting in the same number of tackles under Noble in 2009 as he was under Madge.

I trust our coaching staff and Ian Lenegan. There will be reasons why we have signed him, there is obviously huge potential, with the youngsters we have coming through in the pack the club must see him as a big player for us next season.

Just what we need - a forward version of Karl Pryce, but with a bit less heart.

WANE OUT!

I'm pretty sure that's impossible.

Get the kids in

It's no good comparing number of games played without comparing minutes on the pitch.After ten minutes he's blowing for a tug

If hes got less heart than Karl Pryce i wouldve checked for a pulse before we signed him

.

And was doing it at Salford prior to coming here. He'd impressed at a "smaller" club and was rewarded with a move to a "bigger" club. We are taking a punt on Lauaki which is something I dont think we should ever have to do.

I hope I'm proved wrong but I really dont understand this signing!

The main problem I have with him in relation to penalties is the ones he gives away are just daft. There is no such thing as a good penalty but when I have seen him pinged it has been for a pointless lazy flop or daft swinging arm. Brain dead coach killing errors.

He is a project in what has been a flat market, will not cost the earth and has massive potential. Could become a massive crowd favourite and strike running backrow, where we need more threat in my opinion.

Could be a total goose.

His future and success is in his hands.

Welcome to Wigan.

If you remeber our away game at your place this season, when you narrowly did us. Lauaki came off the bench and gave a crucial penalty away, i'm 99% sure you scored off it. That's the eternal frustration with him. He will make you put your head in your hands, no doubt.

Having said that, there is talent there. Only time will tell eh.

Bad signing for such a high caliber team like yourselves. He is lazy, has no heart, not a great defender for his size and has the often brain fart.

Inconsistent and no passion at all. And 3 years! Wow!

Brilliant!

Potential?

Is it spitting?

Whilst I have to agree with you,its precisely because of some players like Lauaki we are in this position.Its only my opinion but I would like to thank Wigan for taking him off our hands. If he suddenly becomes a revelation at your place I will hold my hands up and admit I was wrong.

He cant be much worse than Mark O'Meley, now that is value for money !!!!!!!!!!

You've either been watching a different Mark O'Meley or you seriously need to give your head a shake.

Lauaki couldn't lace O'Meley's boots, not without being subbed after all the exertion of lacing the first one anyway

Since arriving over here with a big reputation O'Meley has looked nothing more than an overweight 'plodder', if you believe he has been value for money it's no surprise you've had a couple of seasons of mediocrity.

Well let's just leave it 'til next season and see how O'Meley & Lauaki go head-to-head eh? I know which player I'm happier retaining

Fair enough, only time will tell.

now that's more like it captain13,if your gonna have a pop at us then do it right pal



by the way has Lauaki been enrolled at weight watchers yet?

If Shaun Wane has seen some hidden potential and can unleash it, then you've been wasting your money on Madge for the last two years. I just have this nagging feeling that by the time Lauaki matures into a powerhouse player, he may be older than Stanley Gene
