They way you are looking at it Agar has criticised the refs for not looking after the player and criticising the refs doesn’t mean that they will change their opinion.
It will also put the refs under greater scrutiny from the media for how they handle Lauaki in the future.
There was no backlash from the refs against Rovers after Morgan's outspoken criticism of Thaler last year was there?

For next year, maybe we could have some sort of Hull version of Pamplona's Running of the Bulls. We could keep Lauiki in a darkened dungeon in that old gateway (Beverley Gate?) at the top of Whitefriargate from Palm Sunday, feeding him only on raw meat and 20/20, then release him to the strains of Red Red Robin at which point he could chase and try to "gore" Rovers fans in their shirts right the way down into the Old Town.
There will be another new sport in the next derby at the KC. Newton Hunting. If our players can find him of course.......

No there wasn't and thats the point, Morgan was hoping that his comments would make the refs look at the laying on and slowing down tactics used by Hudds, but it didnt. And I don't think the refs are really put under any scrutiny at all by the Rugby media. Lauaki came in for a bit of treatement by an opposing side, its not the first time its happened to a player and it won't be the last.

One of the finest dropping of shoulders you will ever see.

You won't be able to miss him as I can guarrantee he will head directly for Chav corner when he comes out for the warm up. The more you hate him, the more he will love it.

As an aside, I really did think Extreme Lauiki Baiting was a brilliant new pantomime sport on Good Friday, fantastically aided by both sets of fans. For next year, maybe we could have some sort of Hull version of Pamplona's Running of the Bulls.
