Tommy Talau

[Terry Zarsoff]

Of course he is he's our best centre and he can't get a run behind Garick who's got to doing some 1 on 1 sessions with Seibold to have kept that position.

Speaking of Garrick, I really hope he starts treating his opponents as faceless men, rather than people he has to have a little bit of niggle with. It seems to happen regularly and it comes back to bite him a lot.

Garrick was at it again, early in Sunday’s game.*

* I don’t know who started it, but the Cronulla No.12 was really giving it to Garrick later on, after Garrick lost the ball in goal and Trindall scored.

So was every Manly fan and probably the coaches too!

Navren was an interesting addition this year, haven't heard how he's been going lately but definitely looked a potential NRL player from early glimpses I got.
If he and Clayton are cheaper than Talau...

Did not play NSW Cup last week. Might be injured or suspended?

I disagree about Clayton; he has played well in his limited opportunities in First Grade.

Agree he seems to be less injury prone and as a back up much cheaper.

No surprises there.

Could anyone blame him for potentially moving on?

Best centre at the club, and can't get a gig in his best position.

 

[globaleagle]

He was fooooookin injured for rd 10!!!!!!

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

I like Talau and what he did for us last year, but how many players who struggle to make it onto the field do we really need?

 

[Disco]

I don't think there will be the intense bidding war some expect with Talau.

I hope we dont jump at shadows and offer overs.....we have been known to do that.

 

[LeonardCohen]

He’s the definition of mid. Best centre at the club? I’d take Garrick and Koula over Talau any day of the week.

Our current issues have nothing to do with our centres and a guy like Talau is certainly not going to solve other problems with his modest talent.

There’s plenty of other more pressing concerns than the late scratching of Talau from our bench on the weekend.

Why was Talau playing NSW cup today? So he was dropped to cup, not injured?

Two words….Lehi Hopoate

Wow, really?

"Two late consolation tries to Tommy Talau and Faulalo gave the Sea Eagles a more respectable score-line, but the Eels did enough to secure a well-earned 36-26 win in front of their home crowd."

We need TT2 in the squad to keep the likes of show ponys like Saab honest.

Talau is like our mystery player, know one knows if he's injured, dropped or just not listed anywhere.

Another reason for Seibold to go. Talau is in our best 17 every week, if he’s not getting picked over players like Waddell, something is very wrong.
