Utai WOW

[badger]

He brings 100% effort and his enthusiasm is infectuous. He seems to lift the team and provide the spark. Should swap contracts with Blair

i've been his critic, however i do acknowledge that his value at the start of the sets is second to none. but my prob is that it's not the primary job of the winger.

tig_prmz - with perhaps the exception of friday night, our backs are always taking the early hit ups from our own line.

Other than that I can only echo all the praise he has been given here - saved our bacon on numerous occasions in recent games.

Utai must now be paid by the meter.

Always been a Utai fan. I dare say it, he's filled the shoes of Tuiaki and make the spot his own.

He only runs in 1 direction, straight and hard!!

Tree Trunks is his nickname for me

Our forwards must love him with some of his runs early in sets

You gotta love a bloke who makes line breaks and scores tries due to his height (or lack of it).

I feel the garden gnome has done more than enough even at this point in the season to warrant a contract extension. 1 more year please!!

"Tree Trunks is his nickname for me"

Around this way he is known as the "greasy pig", a name he earned back in his bulldog days.

Rather Utai than Lote be resigned and we have the young wingers coming through. One of the best players every week. No reason not to resign him.

i hope i am wrong but isnt this classic utai? flows in and out of form all the time. we all know what he is capable of, just need to get it out of him week to week. reminds me alot of krisan inu.

im not sure that teams have been really been testing him under the high ball either. no doubt he has been alot better, but hasnt consistently been put under pressure. games against raiders and warriors i noticed how little they put pressure on utai with difficult kicks. not sold just yet.

He is phenomenal :slight_smile: I think drop Tuquiri, He hasnt been performing and is definitely too slow for a winger, why are we signing so many centres and wingers these days? We have so much talent in Ayshford, Lawrence, Utai, Moltzen, and then we sign Reddy? :s
