Lance is sounding a bit miffed in this article, and I sense that he isn't altogether happy with brown. Maybe time for him to move on.
Hohaia said: “Playing the role I have this year has been a little frustrating at times. I have had a couple of injuries, too.
“Last year I was able to get a lot of games and stay in one position and that really helped my game.
“This year has been different and I have had a few different niggles to deal with.
“The injuries overall have changed the dynamic of the team as well. Having a new coach, and having those other things, we have been trying to figure out what suits the team best.
“We are slowly getting there but there is still a fair way to go.
“Everyone has their opinions and the new coach obviously has his of me as a player. At the moment we are working through where best suits me in the team.
“I am happy to do that and just want to carry on working hard.
“I knew when I left New Zealand that this could potentially happen.
“It is hard for coaches not to see me as utility because that is what I have done basically all of my career.
“It is just a matter of working through those and seeing if I can finally settle in.”

Suck it up Lance !!!
Point of clarity - how did all those games at 6 last year help your game ?
You were just as anonymous at 6 after all those games as you were before.
Find yourself another gravy train.

Yeah, so have we - you.
Notice he doesn't show any concern about the team's (lack of) performance or his own?  |

Hohaia's card was marked over a year ago when Brown said on BBC that he didn't think he was a halfback. He's seen as a utility player because he's bang average at best in every position he plays in. Of all the signings McManus gets criticism for this has been the worst IMO.

Yeah he has been a let down. Away to Cats last season he was solid as hell and perhaps that is him at his best. He has ability we know that 30 test matches tell us that much.

I think what he says is quite interesting. I wonder if there are more players feeling frustrated? After all, Brown has done a fair bit of messing about with this team and has undermined results as a consequence. That can't be without impact on the players.

Maybe he should learn to do a shuffle, then you can all think he's great.

Yep, they should play better and cement their places in their positions, NB hasn't moved robes from 9 as he's the best there is there |

tbf he hasn't had much chance to move him has he? Robes has been missing for most of the season. I'm sure though if he'd been around more, Brown would have had him playing in the halves at some point.  |

It wouldn't suprise me to see him named at 13 with Hohaia at 9 and them share the dummy half role.
Wouldn't be my choice, like. |

Very poor for the Exiles tonight as well. And used as a utility from the bench by them even.

Lance's best position is 1 but we dont seem to want to use him there , even when Lomax is having to cover at 6. Says alot about what Brown thinks of him.

I thought he did OK for the Exiles, his best performance of the season so far (not saying much, I know!)
I think his only complaint can be that we brought in Howarth on loan, rather than let him play no. 9 when Roby was out. However, you could quite easily argue that Howarth has outperformed him. He had a full season at 6 last year and made no impact, so he can't really complain about not getting chances there again this year.

I think when howarth came in for 4 or 5 games lance was out injured. |
