A sign from Lote???

Just finished watching the Waratahs play a 16 all draw with the Western Force. The Tahs had an opportunity to kick a penalty for the win. One of the Waratahs had a MASSIVE brain explosion and went for the try.

Lote gave him a verbal but also pushed his own team mate away in disgust. Not a good sign for a man looking to re-sign. Commentators also thought it could be an indication of Lote's intentions.

What Lote did was disgraceful! showed little class. What he did would be well suited to souths.

Lote is a mercenary.
Anybody who crosses to union is.
They go for no other reason then the money.
No other reason.

That's not an insult - good on 'em.
They have families to look after.
But Lote doesn't look at clubs, he looks at money making opportunities.

Sticky/Fordham are just that.
So is Holmes A Court.
It will come down to these 2 as every other club realises this is the go. To rally around and dhore up commercial sponsors.

Lote knows to keep earning the big bucks you need to be in the elite category.
To do this you need to be in the Australian team.
To do this you need to be with Sticky.

Lote knows if he goes to the Bunnies you DO NOT get picked for the Kangaroos.
And you DO upset Sticky.

Lote also knows by making some rich dude like Holmes A Court think you are interested in joining his club, you will get an offer.
Lote also knows if you get an offer from Souths it will be high and this will drive your price up amongst other NRL clubs.

Players looking for their last contract have been using Souths to up their ante for years, so why would Lote try any other route.
Michael searle worked it out, but Holmes A Court can't.

This play by Lote is so transparent it's almost like watching a re-run.

Lote will be a Shark and has been for some time now.

Well I don't give a f**k if he pushes his rugby team mates around. I'd be frustrated too if I was in that 'sport'.

Hope you're right Since 73.

We should sign her up, she has more fire in the belly any football player I have seen in the last 20 years.

That waratahs game was a disgrace, Lote sjhould have pushed the clown for going for a hero try. They could have won the game with a penalty goal. I feel sorry for the bloke who put $50k on the force to win tonight

The public are always the last to know.

Nothing official yet.
Lote has known for some time.

What Lote did pushing i think the player was Knight, he is not on at all, the waratahs, should drop him from the next game.

On watching the game Lote did nothing special with the ball, what i did note that he can ceertainly boot the ball a long way, something we dont have at the club

lol, I think people are looking into it a bit much, hell I'd be pretty f**ken pissed as well if someone went for the quick tap when 2 would win us the game.

Could have happened in any code as well, I recall not too long ago 2 soccer players on the same team got into a dust up on the field, and Finch and Fitzgibbon last year where not shown in the best of light after their on field altercation.

Either way I seriously doubt it will affect his decision one way or the other.
