Looks a real handful and played more minutes than I'd expected.

He looks willing to get involved with a bit of biff too. Looking forward to seeing him at his best next season, especially alongside O'Meley, Fitz and hopefully Big Sam.

Enthusiastic and aggressive. Good to see. Was a bit dirty at first though with them swinging arms, but you've got to think about the fact he's been sat on the sidelines for months doing nothing through no real fault of his own so he was always gonna be a bit up for it.

Bit worried what he might do if he got wound up when we are losing though. Looks like he could potentially be a bit of a loose cannon.

more aggression than we've seen all season, and he isn't even fully fit

He seems to get stuck in,that will do for me.

He's got something we've been sadly lacking for too long now - his big hits and aggression lifted the team!!

He'll be a big hit with the fans - if that's his level of performance after a year out, imagine what he'll be like after a full off season in training and hits the levels of fitness Big Sam has!!

Welcome Epalahame Lauaki !!!

something we missed all season, one mean b*****d!!



looking forward to the match up between luaki and paleassena (check spelling) when we play wigan

Was it my imagination, or did it get darker when him and Moa were on together?

No, that's called sunset mate!

The ref had called him out twice for a word and he'd only been on 10 minutes.

Would have been great if he'd managed to get that try near the end. Looking forward to seeing him and O'Meley next season.

lauaki was fantastic tonite along with sam moa , hope they see sense and sign big sam

It was great to see commitment though,even if he is like a bull at a gate.

this is exactly what we need, for too many seasons we have been too nice - look at us on top of the fair play league. i would be happy to see us well down this list. we have no players other teams and their fans really dislike. we need a bit more nastiness

Was a bit rusty at first but when he came into the game played very well and looks very promising

Agreed - nothing wrong with a bit of agression, even if it spills over on occassions.

He put the fear of god into quins - it was nice to see a physically big player on our side for a change !

it was good to see Lauaki,Moa and Manu on the pitch at the same time
plenty of go forward and agression from all 3 which seemed to lift the team even more.

with props like moa and hame, hopefully it will bring and encouage our other props to lift their game too

Spot on!

Spot on again

The Tongan Mafia were up for it big time tonight



LMS must be wishing they all get deported.

A big aggressive bas*ard, just what we need. He can only play one way, glad he started off well, the views have all been positive.

At last we didn't roll over and die when the biff arrived. Long overdue and if Moa were to sign I think the 3 Tongans would make a pretty good crew to at last bring back the steel and aggression we have missed for a long long time.

he was very impressive last night for guy that has only played one game, when he substituted after his first stint he didnt want to come off and was pacing up and down the touch line like he was really ed off.



hopefully more to come of this

Good start. Didn't envy Quins running up against Hame and Big Sam, looked abit like hitting a brick wall.
