Justin Olam #281

Any word on his injury?

i thought they said on the coverage when he came back on the field it was knee cartilage, could have misheard though.

The worst part is we traded a healthy fit blore…

Have we ever seen a truly health fit Blore?

 

[Red88_Tiger]

Don’t tell me you are really surprised, given the history of this club when it comes to signing new players with injury concerns and/or to contracts that are always at least one year too long .. McQueen, Matalino, Packer, and several others …Olam will be the daily double …injured and too long

Packer developed his turf toe with us not before

My toes are fine.
Mind your own business.

I hope Olam's debut in tigers colours is a good one and that he plays with confidence

Id be willing to bet he’s healthier than Olam.

I hope he plays with confidence, last the 80mins and is able to back it up next week.

Need a couple of his trademark bell ringers to inspire the team to give as good as they get. Guys like Bateman feed off that stuff.

Blore who?

He is a depth player - as Bellamy has recognised...

Hey, Callouts to Olam.

Api, Bula had total crackers of a game with Stefano and the pack doing good work.

But we saw some really awesome combinations with Olam and everyone around him. Man this guy made a massive difference. Loved his strong running and he took some difficult balls from Api and converted.

I want to wait a few more games to say we were damn right in signing him. Yet if he keeps this level of performance up, man we were damn right in signing him.

 

[jrtiger]

possibly the best club debut I've ever seen by a Wests Tigers player. what a diamond he is.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Hope he is fit for Parra

 

[Muffstar]

Hope he is fit for Parra

He was up at Newcastle watching the Storm play the Knights, so hopefully all good.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Hope he was talking to Gagai

 

[Alex Seyfarth's #1 Fan]

What a beast. I think it was Ramien who he smashed. How good is it to see a centre who can tackle? Feels like he can strike fear into opposition players.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

That Talaki guy also kicked some ass. We did pretty good.

Olam was exceptional......However, I was more impressed with his leadership abilities it seemed after every try or every mistake he was the first one there to get around the player and you can tell he really wants to come in and make a change within that team.

Players like him, Api and Luai (next year) all coming from great systems will add so much more value than the eye perceives.

Leadership around a squad is everything. Really really impressive stuff.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

So is heart

 

[Tito Santana]

Blore who?

Exactly. I’d take Olam or Samuela Fainu over Blore any day.

I smell a dynasty coming on!

He was outstanding. Api was exceptional. Justin Olam has already had two of my mates that are of PNG origin join the club as members and they are bloody Rah Rah fans amazing what a win and some positivity can do for us. Hope he wrecks an Eel or three this weekend!!!!
