Opens up a overseas spot if it happens. But some of our young guns are looking more promising than brining in guys from down under

You got my hopes up then that he was going with immediate effect!

Only as is expected. I think he'll retire and move to America though.
We already have overseas spots available as we're not at the limit with him in our team - what it does do though is basically confirm we're going to have a huge chunk of cap space for next year...
The message I got from that is Saints won't be giving him another contract and he's making his availability known.
Forwards win games. The backs decide by how much.
Do we need an overseas player? At times I think it must be compulsory. Not just Saints but everywhere.
Just looking at our squad of 1982 and we could have fielded a team full of players brought up via the youth system . As indeed most clubs could.
I don't have a problem with the odd import or the likes of Walmesley (in 1982 we had Gorley and Moorby) but why waste money on overseas players, most just wanting a busman's holiday when we can develop our own?
If Lance does leave, I Would like to thank him for his 100% effort and best wishes to him.

Don't be surprised to see him do one more year at NZ Warriors before hanging his boots up
Thats a blow.
Good luck to Lance, he has been a decent utility player for us. Not much time spent out injured either.
Sadly Lance seems to have been messed about by a couple of our coaches. Never really settled with the goings on at the club since he arrived.
I agree, and I feel a bit sorry for him because of that.
Last season was definitely his best with us and I think his best game was against Leeds at LP when he basically created the winning try. Had he had a more settled time we may have seen more good stuff from him. I certainly value him in our team and I hope we will see him more as the season continues.
Let's not rewrite history into some 'flowers in our hair, holding hands' nonsense, all in all Hohaia has been one of the worst signings this club have brought in from overseas and I don't think a single person will be sorry to see his contract come to an end.
Seems a nice bloke and all that jazz but he must have felt like he'd won the lottery the last four years.
Whilst I'm not his biggest fan, he has been a good, relatively injury free, utility player for us. Sadly that's not what he was signed as and it's been a fairly expensive contract from our position. By no means our worst ever signing but not one we should be trying to repeat.
As for the above quote, you do say some ridiculous stuff but that one is simply idiotic and in pretty poor taste. Lance could have been seriously hurt with that assault and making light of it makes you look (more) like a buffoon.
