I remember Petersen hert is arm bad in the 1st tackle of the CC cup semi. LAtu has been a good player for us yes he has put on weight but he is a good player. Look how good he was for Tonga. Murphy or Blanch could hardley be dropped before but it was strange Petersen was not in sunday must admit. If you are saying this what about Scully he has been utter tripe for us and he will be on nearly the most £££

that is your opininon and you are of course entitled to it....

mine is that he did not cost us that game, the sun was in his eyes and Hull played a very tactical game kickin it high to him,

can i remind you that he scored twice and set one up in that same game and also made 2 very very important tackles,

the only thing that cost us a place in the final was Danny Broughs boot but he had an off day with his kickin and it happens!

we all have our opinions, thats the beauty of this forum. I think the man is a total waste of money and will never repay the wages already spent on him.

Wasnt so long ago when I was getting slated that we shouldn't have got rid of Fox was it?? Told you we should have kept him . I do think Petersen will come good. I cant understand the Latu critiscism though. Hes been a good player for us and now hes put a bit of weight on he suddenly isnt a bad player! Blame Atkins for taking him to the carvery .

Hopefully he will get his injuries sorted out soon. I've asked before but forgotten, when does his contract expire? Was it an 18 month deal?

2.5 years I believe. He's here next year as well - but he must prove his fitness!

I blame Petersen for the Iraq war and the credit crunch and the weather...

Cheers TRB.

In hindsight he hasn't been a great signing but hopefully if/when he returns to action he will make up for his prolonged absences from the team.

Nothing short of topping the try charts will do for me……

Repercussions of that being displayed now as it looks like we're skint and having to sell one of our best players. The money generated from a cup final appearance would have stood us in good stead for this season.

And he can't take a punch. Ask Atkins. Soft-ar$e.

I was real happy about us signing him. No one can forsee the unforee-able!

I don't see anyone suggesting we should pack up Stosic's bags - yet!
