New Winger - Christian Tuipulotu

[rmd]

Good luck to him if he joins the Dragons, as he will have a starting spot each week.
I did like him as a player as he gave his all for Manly, however, I don't think he was ever going to reach the expectations the club may have had of him when he was recruited and he would have had limited chances in 1st grade this year.

So are we to the dragons like the tigers are to us?
Can never knock a player, especially a fringe one, for getting what you would hope is a better deal

I've got a Dragons friend and a Tigers friend, and we refer to our clubs as the Bermuda triangle.

Crazy how interlinked they are. And that's not a good thing for Manly as we know.

Where players just simply ...disappear..

Is he on the books for Tartek

Quite understandable if Tuipulotu is considering his options now .
Off his game quite a bit in the mid part of 22 after doing quite well in general in his i st grade appearances prior to that .
Picked up his game again for the remainder of that season and seemed to go all right for a good portion of last season .
Maybe will be inclined to again look elsewhere just on the opportunity front but also unlikely to be that interested in a major drop in pay .
Club has made their position clear and will just see how it will play out now

I'll miss his QE2 speed type of play-the-balls, from minute one of the games.

Dragons backline is:

01. Tyrell Sloan
02. Mat Feagai
03. Moses Suli
04. Zac Lomax
05. Mikaele Ravalawa

I'm guessing he'll be fighting it out with Corey Allan & Mat Feagai for that last spot. Good luck bro.

Allan has bad injury mate and lucky to make the field in 2024....Feagai and Tui is a coin toss, though I think flanno is "offering" him a starting position which maybe more appealing than Blacktown Workers ....

Didn't I read somewhere that flanno has told Feagai he can look around for a deal elsewhere? Although it may have been his brother, or I may have just dreamt it (it's been a long off-season!)

ST Merge are training at my gym on the central coast tomorrow. So be interesting to see if Christian is already there. Keep you posted.

I really don't rate Tuipolotu that highly. He plays with intensity, but he is really slow for a winger. It seems like the club are ready to put Fualalo ahead of him.

I don't rate Vaega all that much either, so hopefully our wing depth doesn't get tested too much.

Vaega is NSW Cup standard.

Corey Allan is out injured for all of 2024 with a torn ACL

Thanks for your service, Christian.
I'll always remember him putting the ball dead to win against the Roosters last season.

Yep we all wish him all the best , was never in the mix after the ins this year.

 

[NYEagle]

This is great news...

Tuipolotu played like an absolute champion before the Rainbow saga and bizzarly with an absolute pea-heart since. The drop in effort areas was shocking.

That's not due to form, or health, that's desire for the jersey.

Glad to see the back of him.

Good luck to him

The daily Telegraph headline this morning is amusing.

Manly speedster joins Dragons immediately.

LOL. Tippy is slow as Sharon Woods

Hope he plays on the same side as Suli. Defensively, they will be the worst in the comp.
