News on Lauaki`s future tomorrow according to James Smailes.

Probably just be that he could still earn a new deal according to Coach Agar

I think that it's a sham accross the majority of the board, tbh, but I'd also like to see as good as possible Hull FC side so I'm torn.

The only worrying thing in there is that we might still offer him a contract

I would be ok for him to get another contract, we have seen what he can do when he is on his game, but i dont think Agar knows how to get the best out of him. For Wigan to be heavily interested speaks volumes for me. There isnt an English equivalent of Hame unfortunately

Exactly, the fact Wigan want him shows the potential. I'd rather keep Hame and get shut of the coach.

Same here

plus, we dont have an owner that will reward mediocrity any longer, if players/coaches dont perform, they will go. Thought Hame showed against Leeds in the cup what he can do,

Really?

He made one half decent run and lost the ball at the end of it.

thought he ran it in well, got quick play the balls and defended well. Thats what his job description should be, and he did it

I agree, thought Hame looked very dangerous against Leeds

Liam Kent could do that (on a regular basis) on a pittance of what Lauaki's on.

Have we started counting on the 2nd hand the amount of 'good' games he's had while he's been here?

bin him, he's garbage most of the time

My thoughts exactly. Been a massive let down.

Same with Horney these past 3 seasons, yet we have given him a 2 yr deal!

exactly.... the whole reason were miles behind the aussies is simply down to the fact that we already had a young english secongd rower in burnett, yet we opted for luaki who's nrl career was cut short due to his inept performances and his ill-discipline on the field....
we should be nurturing our youngsters not going for second rate NRL ers.....

I can see the potential in him, but we just don't have the coach to bring the best out of him. He's not worth a big wedge of the salary cap though.

We've seen glimpses of what he is capable of with the ball, but only that. My issue with him is in defence. IMO he's fine when players run at him at him, but if they want to go round him they generally do.

Been told he's already signed for Wigan , 3 year deal . He"ll more then likely look a world beater in a decent team and used properly .

Just had a text from a friend who works on the scheduling for BSkyB live events. He said our club has asked Sky for five minutes air time for James Rule to make an announcement before the game tonight. Can anyone on here shed any more light on this? What is this news?

Grade A Licence blah...

Ten year extension for Agar.

Its a special video montage he's prepared for Kaths departure
