He's looked good when on the pitch as well. Need to show a bit of patience with him as well as Sezer.

Does anybody Qare-Qare that we ain’t signing the Flying Fijian?

We shouldn't be too quick to right off players who struggle when they first come over, he had a very unsettled year in the NRL before he came and then got knocked out in his first game, plus then had surgery.

Look at Field for Wigan, things can turn around and he has a lot to offer if he can get fit.

Very good point. I think the ultimate example of this was Scott Donald. We used to shout from the stands "don't pass to Donald" as a joke! Second season onwards, he was unbelievable.

Fusitua is also very much a confidence player. It can’t help your confidence being smacked in the jaw with someone’s shoulder and knocked out on debut, and then picking up a knee injury that needs surgery.

He’s a brilliant player when his body is fit and he’s heads in the right space. He needs support not criticism.

Agree totally, we've missed him big time and he will get better and better for us, especially as it firms up. That challenge from Currie was a straight red. If it had been Tetevano who'd have done that hit he'd have got 4 game ban.

I think JJB needs a bit of credit (and for Sezer) he has said he recognises that some players cannot play to their ability if they aren't 100% I think not playing Fusitua at the moment if he isn't right is 100% the correct decision.

I'm still convinced he will be a star in SL.

Which fingers crossed is only 3 or 4 games away.
Then he can move to centre in place of Briscoe/Sutcliffe.
Sorted.

Weve got his 15 year old brother Marcus in the scholarship. Way this season is going he’ll be in the team at some point.

Do we really want to sign a player like Hardaker with his off field well documented activities.
Its the reason we and Cas got rid and now appears the same could be happening at Wigan.
He obviously cannot mature and if not by now will he ever.
Do we seriously want to chance him having a bad influence on the younger players and not a role model which we need for them.
If GH goes ahead he has lost the plot and needs to resign.
