Tallyn Da Silva #270

[Charred]

Why can’t this club just let players wait until November 1 and make them wait out the remainder of their contract like almost every other club. I don’t get it.

 

[Tucker]

Or maybe the club don’t rate TDS? I don’t at this moment but doesn’t mean he won’t come good in a couple years. The club has a tough decision to make. Anyways there’s a rumour going around that Knights want him on loan and in exchange we get KPP before June 30

Yeah I heard that.
I suppose that’s a good thing. Our backrowers aren’t playing well.

The 2 new teams coming in is probably making the market a frenzy atm. I’d say thats the main reason for getting this decision sorted quickly

 

[gallagher]

If we're extending Api then you just let him negotiate now. Even better if we get KPP.

Read what I said. I feel like im talking to brick walls around here....
Api is our starting hooker in 2025. TDS is his understudy.
Api is our starting hooker in 2026. TDS is his understudy.
TDS is our starting hooker in 2027.
Thats the scenario.

He doesn't want to wait. His manager advised there are 5 clubs keen if the club releases him. There is no qualification about 2027, it is now as per below -

The problem is that Da Silva knows he has the quality to be a starting NRL hooker - but can't achieve that goal at the Tigers, with veteran Api Koroisau is still playing great football for the club, is the team captain and is currently negotiating a new deal.

"We can't talk to clubs at this stage but five have told me that if Tallyn goes to the marketplace, they are keen.

"It's up to the Tigers to decide what they want to do but if Api stays, chances are Tallyn will have to go."

You don't KNOW what you have in TDS, only suspect.

You do KNOW what you have in Api.

If we are playing 5 year plans- then you go with TDS. If you expect to be challenging now, it has to be Api.

If TDS is putting the 'him or me' argument forward- he hasn't WON the job off Api yet. You don't get to make that demand from a losing position.

No we don’t know … but these are the decisions the club has failed in the past and need to get right … im concerned they are letting a player with a lot of potential go to keep a 34 yr old that probably won’t be around much longer ..

Why would he wait ? People here saying that the next in line Haywood is who the club really wants to promote a few years down the track

Because he has Api Koroisau in front of him who is playing very well and is one of , if not the best, hookers in the game.

 

[Odessa]

Newcastle can't pay him 600k either, surely.

That's almost $3m wrapped up in the spine.

Cowboys

In your opinion … not mine .. and he will be 34 when his contract is up

I am referring to now, not in two years time. Read the article I posted and the article and his manager are referring to now.

Yes the decision for 2027 needs to be made now …

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Why the hell are we rolling over again? Why are we allowing him to negotiate now when he is contracted till 28 ? Is Richo on drugs?

 

[Tigerdave]

I like the idea of loaning TDS to the Knights tor the rest of the year. If he plays well the club may change its position and if he plays badly, that could make the decision easier.

If the loan deal is correct then we aren’t rolling over. That would actually be the best outcome the club has had in years

TDS is contracted till next year not till 2028.

 

[mtd#2]

But if the Cowboys want to pay $650K and he was my son I would tell him take it

And from a Tiger's point of view we need experience in the spine can not have 3 rookies and Luai running the show it's just bad timing

What are the tigers offering, 500k?

The 75k extra after tax is hardly worth having to live in Townsville (no offence to any of you up that way 😅😅)

Now…How about in two years?

I’m betting he is already gone ( verbally pending paperwork ) … not on a loan

 

[TCL]

Good luck to the kid. I don’t think he is 1st grade ready but will be decent in a couple of years. He wants it now and that’s cool. If he has done it the right way and the club are cool then all the best.

And if we get kpp for this year as well the super.
