So we've done alright without vaealiki have we? Most of our tries these past couple of games have been conceded on the wings. Him being back allows carney and dallas to have proper centres. We have missed vaealikis defence and ability to get the ball out to dallas.

I was impressed with him at London but he has been a liability for us.On the flipside when we get some forwards we may see a different player.How long have we got left on DM and DO contracts.This is where we need to recruit long term to win grand finals

I can't see how he's been a liability. The only thing he's done wrong is not lit up the pitch with amazing performances. He hasn't overly impressed me this seaon, but he's done no wrong. He seems to be an average player. But hes a big centre, which is what we need with rads being out as well. The only problem he will have is a possible re-ocurance of his injury, which may make him slack on tackling.
Next season for moran and 07 i think for orr.

Sorry i went off thread i was on about Moran.I saw DV play NRL and am a big fan as i have posted previously i think it took him a while to settle he came over with an injury and then he got injured over here.He looks like one of the few players who can sniff a try.

A bit harsh on mr moran arent we? A struggling player in a struggling side springs to mind, maybe with less injuries to the team and a more consistant side things would be different! As for DV, hes not the speediest of players but the man sure can tackle! and from 10 metres out he takes some stopping too! Hes scored some strong trys this season already, and whoever his wingman is will see some action on fri! Im sure glad hes back!!!

Why is everybody praising his defence? He was very weak for most of the time and made some bad errors. This aside i'm very happy to have him back and think he can add something to the team again, just don't think we should be expecting to much.

vaealiki a proper centre. He hasnt dont that much for us. But this time when he comes back he might do something for the team. But 1 of the worst players that we have MORON, sorry moran. he can't catch a ball, he can't pass the ball. What can he do????????
Just a tiny bit more than "sick note" Danny Orr, but I do admit that's not a lot
