Personally, I think we're past the Hickey, Laeano type signings, so I feel reasonably hopeful; I guess we'll find out on Saturday.

But as we like to convince ourselves, it's not just the size- it's what you do with it.
Some play above their numbers, some play below.

Welcome to Wakefield Taulima. All the best for the up coming rounds. And hopefully you will not be judged by all us couch coaches too harshly. New country, new coach, different style of game, team mates, and some over passionate supporters.
Give the lad a chance to settle, before the oversea player, overpaid import card get dealt.
Welcome.

Agree its not about size alone, Paul Aiton's got the heart of a lion and is no more than a midget and Wayne McDonald had the heart of a pea and the body of a giant.

Looking forward to seeing him play.

RA record of overseas players for us is good, Smith , Collis and Aiton have all proved a success, Poore has played well in parts and I am sure that once he settles he will get better. I am sure that he can step up and prove his worth. Isac John was going to struggle to oust Tim Smith or Paul Sykes, he is proving in the NRL that he is a good player. From listening to RA talk at Carlton Cricket Club last night it is very evident that he has some very good contacts on the coaching staff at NRL clubs so I am sure that he has done his research in Tauti.

Seems like he's getting in the spirit of things!

@WTWildcatsRL: Tautai is ready for #MagicWeekend "I don't know much about Castleford but all I know is they're our rival team & I'm out to bash them" #WTW

He missed #sixfingeredfreaks

Tautai! Smash!

Listened to radio Leeds interview and he came over as a humorous and personable guy.
Let's hope he plays as well as he interviews.

He comes across well - "I like the physical aspect of the game - the biff and barge." Let's hope so - that's just what we need.

once again Bren (as my last post was deleted) I quote the above...

pathetic, peurile, and ultimately rubbish banter. I live in Normanton, but the day I chose to be a Cas fan I became an inbred. It's not funny it's just insulting and childish.

question, do you also go on the Leeds forum and make religious insults towards their fans?

If theres a problem send me a PM and i'll deal with it otherwise back on topic please.

Thanks.

great player. potential golden boot winner. wish him all the best.

wrote that 20% faster than you lot could

Who can compose a song for him then?

Dave from my point of view you are more than welcome on here. There is no need for insults.
Good to have your opinion.....it's not your fault you chose the wrong team.

From a Tautai point of view, I hope he does well but just remember that he is straight off the plane. It will be hard for him to make any great impact really.
If he plays a hard but short stint I'll be happy.

Sounds like a wrestling move

Tell that to Agar! He seems to think its worth putting a bloke who's travelled half way round the world and who has had a limited time to get to know his team mates straight into the line up over some other poor sods who've been busting a gut to get into the 19 all season.

Agreed. I also feel sorry for these guys. Is it nailed on that he will play though?

Seems daft to put him in the 19, particularly with doubts over two of the match day squad, if the intention is not to play him.

Molloy and Mellars dropped...Tautai in.

Have Molloy and Mellars been busting their guts for the Red, White and Blue?

If we get 20 explosive minutes of of T on Saturday, it will be more than those 2 all season.

Let's hope his debut doesn't end like Poore's, then.

And 3 times more than Reece Lynne.
