Tommy Talau

[ManlyTragic]

Sharkies aren’t coming last?

Maybe he thought the tigers were playing the tigers?

The kid looked good last night.

The kid looked good last night.

I only caught bits of the game but in commentary joey was suggesting the kid has so much potential.... let's hope he's right!

Sorry, mate. I meant to type "third" but my brain didn't comply. Too eager to get the joke out🙂

 

[manly al]

Suppose main and stands to reason consideration is whether he is more likely to offer more then Brad [ Parker ] .
On par in defence or close would be very pleasing , more effective in attack , surely must have been the foremost consideration or why bother signing him .
That other emerging West Tigers centre looked real good some weeks ago when i did watch a good part of their trashing against the Cows . If Tommy Talau can go as well [ or again close ] on a regular basis as a Manly centre , something to look forward to .
Still would like to see Brad in the game day 17 as a bench sub preferably though

Selected tonight - consider it an audition for next year and rip in.

Selected tonight?He’s only missed 1 game since Rd8

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Can we **** off the Fainu’s immediately and get him now ???

I just watched the last 5 mins of the Dragons v Tigers match with the Tigers needing to score to win.

Talau drops the ball when attacking the line on a 3 on 2.

Next set of 6, has an unmarked winger, so he hogs it goes inside and gets tackled.

WOW I really hope he is better than that, but generally what happens under pressure is how the player is.

I haven't seen anything from Talau that suggests he's any better than what we currently have.

He's average at best from what I've seen.

 

[joeboy]

Murdered overlaps. Didn’t know when to run and when to pass, no nous at all .

Should fit right in

He’s a slightly more mobile,cheaper version of Suli

 

[LeonardCohen]

He was terrible tonight. As mentioned, there were so many opportunities made down his edge (Daine Laurie was outstanding) but he’d run when he should pass and pass early when he should run. He is also slow. Stupid purchase from Manly.

Oh no. Please don't say that!!

I hated Suli when he was here. Zero footy sense whatsoever and totally useless.

 

[bob dylan]

He wont play first grade.

 

[Kalvin]

To be fair I see him as a replacement for Harper

 

[Seagles68]

He wont play first grade.

He does look pretty average.

 

[Oligarch]

A couple of mates who are tigers fans told me he was referred to as Coke can hands

 

[bob dylan]

That is probably right.

 

[bob dylan]

Well he is a fringe first grader in the worst side in the comp.
