NO NO NO NO.
He bleeds penalties from an aortic slash. He is a rampant penalty machine. He has no dscipline whatsoever - in fact our lads were specifically told to niggle and sledge him because he can't control himself.
We do not want him.

Look at his stats compared to Coley, despite Coley playing two less games

He is rubbish.

He often plays off the bench so don't think the 2 less games make much difference. Interseting he's conceded fewer penalties than Coley, that's a suprise to me. Far fewer missed tackles as well.

Why do some people think they know more then the coaches?

Could this be a Wane signing? reason I ask is that Wane seemed keen on Feka, rememeber when Madge went back to Aus and Wane took over, well in the lead up to that we'd lost a game or two and gone into these games with 3 props but as soon as Wane took over he brought Feka straight back in (4 props) and we went and beat Leeds.
To me, Laualaki is very similar to feka so that's my logic... or maybe I need to stop watching so much Sherlock Holmes!

Lets not forget people on here questioned why the hell we had signed Salford reject Andy Coley, who dropped the ball far too often and gave away loads of penalties.
I think we should all know by now that coaching matters, Agar has proved himself to be a god awful coach, he has a team of superstars and turned them into below par nearly men.
I remember seeing EL and thinking he was very destructive, with the right coachin he could be extremely good, and too be honest, i dont mind having a sh@thouse in the side, as long as you dont have a team of them.
Id have to see how he would play for us before writing him off

I think he could be a steal with the right coaching!

is he an out and out prop - I too thought he was a second rower.
Would he be expensive on the cap?

What an incredibly descriptive piece of writing. Beautifully put.

I for one will support whoever pulls on the famous jersey, end of. How many times do we say, "oh cant belive we've signed him" only for players to make us eat our words!!! If the powers that be think he can add something to our team, then the guy gets my full support.
