Would any of you swap Uate now?

He's been good, but there are a couple of players currently going around that I would quite happily swap him for. Nofo, Vunivalu, Rapana and DWZ spring to mind - and that's just right side.

Hes better than DWZ, hes a fullback not a winger. Vunivalu doesnt provide go forward or the speed that Uate has or the footwork, Rapana can be Lazy and has a poor attitude and can be unreliable. Nofoaluma though he is great, but still uate i would prefer.
 
Whilst Uate has been good. He dropped a simple kick last week and they scored from the ensuing set. Nearly cost us the game.

I would swap him for Rapana in a heartbeat. That guy is a beast.

Rapana is the form winger of the comp, by far...the only bloke close is his mate Cotric.

Then Oates and the Don say hello.
Then the two guys at Melbourne.

Then the fullbacks playing wing for NSW get a mention.

Then Uate gets talked about. He has been fantastic, no question, but is not in the top 8 NRL wingers at the moment, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. I love him here.
 
Depends who we are swapping him for
He is 30 this year, not many wingers keep NRL standard past 30
 
I was adamant he was a waste of money.

Happy to be proven so wrong. He is becoming one of my favourites.
 
Uate's true value won't be exposed until next yr when Manly are paying his full wage and when the motivation of trying to prove the Knights wrong,has warn off
 
He always had the skills. He played at all levels
The knights coaching staff stuffed up
and we have benefited
