We put this festival on you ba****ds
With whole lotta love
We worked for one year for you pigs
And you wanna break our walls down
And you wanna destroy
Well you go to hell

Maybe he wants to as it was reported he wants to go to Catalan or maybe he didnt like taking a pay cut then bringing players in or maybe he just cant be arsed anymore. Maybe the club want rid so have hung him out to dry to turn the fans against him and force the issue. I'm sure someone on here with all their great knowledge and connections will find out.


Cycling shorts tells a different story.

Re: David Fifita : Fri Aug 28, 2020 3:21 pm  
All seems a bit odd and very disappointing.
Fifita, when fit, has been our best prop by a distance, the only one that offers any real go forward and the one player that can make a run and lift the whole side. Without him we offer very, very little up front.
The cynic in me sees this as a good way to let him go and lets hope we can get a decent fee if he does.
However, not wearing a tracker, that every other player will have, seems balmy and if correct, it leaves the club with very little choice. :DEPRESSED:

Re: David Fifita : Fri Aug 28, 2020 3:26 pm  
I fail to see how the club are hanging him out to dry and turn fans against him?

Seems like all they’ve done is said it as it is...or am I missing something?

Don’t think any fan would say he hasn’t been an excellent signing and player for us in his time here and I’m sure there’s lots of things he’s ‘got away’ with in his time but has been handled very well by all to get the best out of him...

I’ve even stuck up for him the last few games where some have questioned his attitude/desire. Yes, he hasn’t been what we’ve come to expect from Dave but he’s still been our best metre maker and taking the most carries in.

On this one though I feel it’s really poor from Dave and won’t do him any good at all..

the bringing of players baffles me bearing mind the season is just about null and void, and I can understand being disgruntled about pay cut if he's got a beef with the club on the ways things have gone I'll expect it to come out but we are left with our top prop turning his back on us so it's not surprising he's going to get flack.

Been great while it lasted I await the next signing to be announced

Wonder if Wigan might be interested

It is additional.

But still. If he had to play in a face mask it's better than the club going under because we have no sky money, or worse someone getting covid because they didn't know who'd been in contact in and before the game.

Just wear the chuffing thing.


Don't think so Pops as it says he removed it at half time. I can only think that he feels he's working hard but is being criticised on analysis of the tracker stats.
Just theorising but if he felt he'd worked hard in the 1st half against Catalan and then CC puts the stats up for the all the players 1st half performances and upsets Dave by saying he hasn't worked hard enough, then maybe he just thought sod the tracker.

I like him but since the injuries and his mate going to Salford hes had a drop in form.
GET RID
See if a deal can be done for cash and aplayer exchange now.
Make the situation to Wakeys advantage not his.
If the information supplied true.

It would be a daft thing to do if he did. It's not like it's a secret.
I think Opta use that tracker too.

Egg man, your comments are stupid.
We had this scenario several years ago where people shipped out in bulk.
We had our pound of flesh, he was great, is clearly done with us.
So long, and thanks for all the good times.
Use the money wisely and develop someone else.
It's just deja vu, the club know what to do for the best
