just that it says on the bottom of that news letter about Lauaki getting paid.just thought it was same circumstances

NOBODY. if you read the interview he did with HDM, he says that hull wasn't paying him.

TBH i didn't read the interview but surely someone must be lining his pockets?

Nobody paid Crocker a penny.

Now - back on topic.

how do you know??

Because he said in the interview...

just reading the interview again he was getting paid untill october but then hull where unwilling to pay him untill they had a verdict on his visa. but on many occasions james rule has said that he is 100% sure Hame will get his visa, so i think that is why he's getting paid by hull.

ah right ....in the HULL DAILY MAIL.................must be true then.

if you know different do enlighten us?

News to everyone. Didn't realise you had a star scrum half????

i dont........just cant believe no-one was paying him..........how would he feed himself?

As Kosh said, this is a Lauaki thread but just to put the tin lid on this Crocker said in the HDM regarding signing for Souths:

"I had been without pay since October 1st 2008 as Hull were unwilling to pay me as we awaited a verdict. I was incurring a significant financial loss. Add to this my growing frustration in the system and I was inevitably going to have to make a decision myself."

true or not i really dont know....but no pay since october?.............might have to phone Gwillam from Radio Hull KR. for confirmation!

someone is not singing from the james rule hymn sheet

do Hull fans really believe this?...................probably!!!

id say they get paid quite handsomely so he could maybe have some savings which would of seen him alright through this period?

Crocker was not paid by Hull FC. Lauaki is being paid by Hull FC.

Now - this thread is about Lauaki, not Crocker. Back on topic, folks.

Just surprised no one's blamed the board yet!

i'll start it off.... booo hissssssssss

carnt knock his commitment not to play for you lol

Can't believe the bad luck you lot are having. Washbrook, Cusack, Tony, Raynor, the Crocker deal, this latest blow and signing Thorman.

When does it all end?

I reckon Hull should call it a day on Lauaki, take the money lost on the chin and look elsewhere for next season.

Don't be soft. He's injured his finger. Hardly a reason to renege on a three year deal, sunshine.

Hopefully we will see him this season, if not he'll be a great addition for 2010.

This time last year after Thackraygate and with 8 players out injured, we were asking ourselves the same question. I really wouldn't like to say. Since you're showing us some pity, how about you losing to Warrington next weekend then going on a 10 match losing run in the league. That might take the edge off our misery. If not, just leave us to wallow in our self-pity - we're getting pretty good at it

Could happen, but if it did, we still wouldn't be half as miserable as you lot.

wait till youve had a couple of seasons like us then come back and see how you feel then!!!!!!!!!!
