Utai hasn't been at the top of his game for a while, and don't mention his defense capabilities!!! He may get replaced by younger players in the near future.

If utai ever gets back to 100% and strings together 10 first grade games in a row HE MIGHT get back to form

until then theres not much hope

IMO i always thought the dogs should teach him how to pass and play him off the bench as a replacement hooker. When we had Hughes and Perry, i thought Utai would be great off the bench instead of Perry. He is not a good defender out on the wing and we all know he can't jump to catch a ball. I think his runs out of dummy half would be great when all the defence are getting tired and he is fresh off the bench.

I know we have now recruited more talented hookers but it was just a thought!

Utai still made an average of 140m+ for his handful of games this year.

That's an impressive stat. He's always a weapon

nuffin wrong with his attack. TBH i want him 2 play centre. He wouldnt have much of a problem in defence their, and not as much pressure from the high ball.

if he doesn't perform in the off season, he could find himself in PL.

Yeh hes great in attack, but put your best defender next to him that can cover his defensive lapses. I do love watching him run though.

not a stupid idea.

Put him somewhere he would be under no pressure in defense. He could concentrate on his attack and we wont have to close our eyes when people run at him.
