:unamused:

True Bug …......in the Guinness Championship,,which ends in May.......

Lortay was a replacement for injuries and players away at the six nations that ends in March....

Once those players come back Lote is free to go ......is the way I understand it...

So then this match has no bearing on when Lote gets back?
 
Benjibrotown…No Idea what that match even is.,,,don't follow yawnion....It's the LV=Cup whatever that is???

Maybe if Leichester is knocked out of that Comp as towntiger eluded too...Lote will be released......I believe his Leichester contract expires at the end of March.....

There was talk Lote would extend till May.........Until Humph went over that is........

Spot on!
 
I'm still wondering as to why Tuqiri wasn't on the team list!?

Long shot. But maybe he is back on the plane already? If Leicester got their injured players back, then they might have had to dump him. Wasn't it that he was under some sort of cap allowance for injuries?

Does anyone know UK union well enough to know who he was replacing?
 
Lote will return now. The finals of this comp (LV= Cup) was to be played during the mid March period when there are three weeks off the Guiness Premiership. Basically there is three weeks were Leicester wont play now and a game on 28th March - I am led to believe that LKeicester will let Lote of this last game meaning their match on the 6th of March could be his last, maybe he might eben be back before then.
I think if you look at Lote being left out of todays team then they are probably resigned to letting him go straight away.

I'll be buggered. I actually work with Jeremy Staunton. Wondered why I haven't seen him for the last few months. The big fella kept this one under wraps. Will have to ask him how he found playing with Lote when he gets home.
 
I'm still suspicious about the whole Lote affair. I don't see how we need him as a footballer at all, we are overloaded with wingers already.

Lote is a signing for the Wests Tigers brand, not the football team. By 2012, he will be wearing a suit and doing promotions work exclusively, I reckon.

I recon you'll be eating your words. Let the guy first get here, let him play 12 games - then judge his performance aye!

The guy is not about taking it easy, otherwise why would he return to the fish bowl that is NRL player living in Sydney. He is here for the right reasons - so before casting any opinions on the bloke, let him get a chance to touch the ball at least.
 
"overloaded with wingers"?

I am suspicious taht for rd1 our wingers are likely to be Beau Ryan and either Mitch Brown or Fitzy. Not too excited about any of them, particularly compared to the possibility of Tuqiri & Tuiaki.

Who am I overlooking?

I get the feeling TNT is going to be on the side lines for a long time, so I think its going to be a long time before we see the two in action together sadly. On Lotte can only be a plus for the club on and off the field. Okay I would have loved to have Lima or Burgess but Lotte will go okay and a old head will be very handy out wide in those close games we always seem to loose

I agree with this. Lawry & TNT are already a great combination, but the other side has never really clicked with Collis/Ryan or Ayshford/Ryan. Someone with Lote's experience would be fantastic for Ayshford. Kinda "That was too early….that was too late" kind of advice would be fantastic forthe young kids.

Norton-Knight had a tendency for brain explosions and to not play to instructions. I can hardly blame Lote for reacting they way he did. Instead of feeding a champion backline, too often Norton-Knight would try and do everything himself.

Lore is well liked by the Waratahs players and the Wallabies. His continued support for the Wallabies, despite how he was treated, is an indication that he is much better person than some give him credit for.

Wrong…

but it's done now can we move on......

im not wrong, and ive told you my contacts in PM's to you before, the thing that should stand to everyone and its blindingly obvious, is that not once did sheens deny all these talks with tuquiri, he even said it on summertime, sheens doesnt make those kind of statements unless he knows its done.

humphreys wouldnt make a 20 hour plane trip on a maybe from lote, its all smoke and mirrors by the the brains trust, this deal was done along time before it was announced, deal with it.

What exactly is your agenda here Ron?

Would you like to see the club investigated and punished so that you can prove that you and your insider mate were right??

I said this to you back when you were Anderson Silva….Nobody cares mate....your worse that a gossiping woman.

Just like when he encouraged Sam Norton-Knight in the Waratahs….

Knight deserved that push in the back.. on full time… takes a tap and tries to do it himself...
the way Union Kickers kick, that would have been a 3 point conversion.... selfish play
