Based on last night's abject performance it should be a long time before he puts a first team jersey on again.

Woeful would be an understatement.

He was poor last night and potentially played his way out of the world challenge team. Shame thought he looked really strong Pre season but did have a very poor game last night, hopefully just a bliP

The team needs to establish some dominance up front before going out wide so i would bring in Richard Moore to add some go forward play, Hauraki has never been any good.

We let Ali go to Wakey and kept this lump!!!!

I always thought that he was pretty average at the Crusaders and not up to Leeds standard

can't write a guy off after one bad game ffs.

I was all over the place the day after my kid was born too. Perhaps the sensible thing would have been not to select him this week. In general he's been looking a much-improved player.

Agree Tad/Ci.
I also think that Clarkson should start every time he's in the 17 and if selected Hauraki is a bench BR every time for me.
Another selection i think our coach got wrong this week but i'm not gonna start kicking off just my opinion on last night.

Graham when did he last have really good game?

Sal ,imo i thought he finished the season strong and was a tad unlucky to miss the GF plus he's looked stronger and sharper in pre-season and was'nt that bad last week.
Saying that i can see where yer coming from even if i don't think he's as bad as you do and tehre's no doubt he needs to improve but for me i think he will and as someone pointed out his missus has literally just dropped and maybe he shouldn't of played.

I thought he looked like he could become a decent impact backrower off the bench over the last few games/end of last year. Probably has played himself out of the WCC as I thought Clarkson played half decent when he came on. In his defence he was playing centre, thought it would have seemed more sense to move Delaney there.

He was fairly abject in the Warrington playff game too - hence being dropped for the GF.

He should only ever be on the bench at best; Clarkson should start every time.

Come On, apart from JJB everyone else was well of the pace yesterday. How can anyone claim Hauraki as played his way out of WCC on last nights game is beyond me. Working on this there will be sixteen changes next week.
