[quote="Tarquin Fuego":125orlip]Sao was the worst player we had last year Total liability Unfit and I assume carrying injuries when ‘fit’ I don’t go to many games because I live in Australia so you get a free shot on that one I buy a lot of Merch and offered to buy a small % of the Club when Adam sent me the Prospectus about 9 months ago. I’ve bought season passes from here in Melbourne before Anyways - Sao just looks slow on the FB videos the Club regularly posts and I saw 2 instances of him looking like a typical slow forward in the Cas clips from Last ( which were very revealing ) The last 4-5 years have been the worst rugby ever served up by FC and I’m keen as many are to see the team Galvanise behind the new owners and coaching staff and I have already popped some cash on FC beating Dragons at $3.75 I will be up at 4am watching that one or whatever time it’s on[/quote:125orlip] I think making conclusions from the 7 mins is difficult. It’s like reading quotes where some words have been removed. Sao has many attributes -fitness is usually one of them, effort,passion and no little skill. As so often happens behind keyboards criticism is much more likely to be spouted and rarely balanced with praise. So in that vain if Sao can cut out the indiscipline and ill advised offloads we have the forward who was so good for Samoa in the World Cup

Sao was overplayed and frequently played out of position last year. Most of his misdemeanours were due to fatigue. I never thought he was unfit, just did more minutes than he should. Hopefully ashworth can stay fit and reduce ligi's minutes

He needs to hit the ground running though, we have little time for repeated chances for players who have been there a few years.

There has been a few players from last season who have moved on saying Hulls training was more or less half ar$ed and half a day long and it showed . I think Sao will be alot better this season not only having a new coach breathing down his neck but been a lot fitter .
