Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2812889, member: 2221"] Kahu was never a speed devil, but he is not slow. It's just that anyone looks slow next to Roberts... Besides the glass epithet put on him is based on 2 long term consecutive injuries, and a few unlucky injuries on that cursed left centre position. He may not be as durable as some, but just to put things into a bit of perspective, Kahu has played 42 games in the last 2 seasons, compared to 43 from Boyd, 47 from Oates and 48 from Roberts. Without comparing the players, Hodges was much more injury prone than Kahu is, and was still a wonderful servant of the club. Kahu has shown more than enough quality in all aspects to be looked at long term. He is a solid defender, excellent under the high ball, great finisher and a good goal kicker, besides being by far the best Fullback backup the club currently has. Jumping to the conclusion that he was put on the wing because he isn't part of our long term plans, has zero value. Wayne could have simply concluded that he is the best person for the specialist winger job, instead of not being good enough for the centres, where we have more choices with Moga, Opacic, Pangai and Seve.
