David Nofoaluma #164

[MarySt]

meanwhile in attack he was:

9th in run metres (3285m) - Mansour was 2nd with 3713 but played two more games
7th in Line breaks (19) - behind Sivo, b. morris, s.katoa, JAC, AJ & tedesco
4th in tackle breaks (112) - only ponga, cotric, and tedesco above him
4th in tries scored (17) - below crichton feldt and johnston
and 5th in amounts of runs (370)

So all you people talking stats and elite wingers etc etc... what more proof would you like?


If your point is that he is pretty good, kinda middle of the road, Im with you.

He's in the top 5 or 10 in the entire comp in some stats and you think he's middle of the road? That doesn't make much sense.

Haha exactly

He's far from middle of the road. There's at least 20 to 30 outside backs behind him in those stats


Well given there are 4 x 16 "outside backs" in the comp, 30 would put his smack in the middle of the road. 20 behind him would mean he is not even middle of the road.

Im not saying he is a not a good player. He is. "Middle of the road" is probably underselling him. He would probably be top 10, I can think of 8 wingers better than him but top 10 out of 32 wingers isnt far off MoR.

He is apparently currently getting $450K pa. Not worth a cent more IMO.

Thanks for the maths lesson, the reality is if he leaves this club wouldn't be able to acquire anyone better, so let's just hope that doesn't happen

We have juniors. A replacement will not be as experienced but he may be faster, a better defender, runs the ball back equally as hard as Nofoaluma and is much cheaper.

That is hilarious. Neither Tommy, AJ or Reece Hoffman play to 50% of nofas capacity, how do U think any of the juniors below them will do much better? Usually takes a few years for wingers to really hit their straps

Why does it have be those three? We have other very good young players. He's not due to depart until end 2021. My support of WTs is not dependent upon Nofoaluma being at the club. Koroibete, JAC and Simona were far better players than him and they have all departed.

Its those 3 as they're the ones that played this year

My supports not dependant on him either, but I would be mad if he left, the same as people are mad that Tedesco is no longer with us

 

[TigerSJ]

I am confident that we will retain Noffa especially considering we have the veteran allowance to play with. As for Brooks’ satisfying the allowance, the way I read it he has to have played 8 years of NRL as well as being a junior at the club.

Mansour is just as good and if take him off Penriths hands we might get Laurie next year too.

With Naden likely to miss some footy, I dont think they will be letting anyone go

Nadan wasn’t in the best 17

True but he would certainly have been in front of Laurie as depth, so that makes it harder for us to get a release now.

I love the fact we arnt paying overs. Continue the way we are going. I like nofo but he is just a winger. Expendable if he wants more money.

His reported asking price is fair in my view. If we want to go cheap on wingers and spend money elsewhere that’s another decision but the fairy tale he’s not worth in the 400s is delusional.

 

[the_third]

I actually thought he was on $450K. He was a massive beneficiary last time of getting overpaid due to a Parra bid. Sets someone up for disappointment this time around.

He was definitely paid overs at the time but in fairness he's probably played up to that value. We're carrying several other players who've played nowhere near their pay grade.

Agree with you, on 2020 form

Interesting segment on the radio today on SEN. Jimmy Smith was talking about the Nofa situation. He thought that the article stating he was worth $450k was strange because he claims to know for a fact that Nofa is on $450k in 2020 and is contracted for MORE in 2021.

He also quoted the stat that Nofa scored 17 tries this year but his “Try Causes” (tryes let in, no idea where he got this stat) was 25.

Jimmy Smith also made the connection that with the media noise around Nofa going to Parra and being replaced by Mansour. Nofa, Fergo and Mansour all have the same manager.

For mine Nofa is on the top end of money for his skills. I’d be happy for him to stay for the same money but not cent more. IMO offer him a 2y continuation or see ya later.


great post - I'll have to listen to that one.

It all stinks of a manager wanting his cut

He would have got that info from the guy who is his mate the statistician who now works for the tigers i dont remember his name he was previously with the storm and comes on SEN to discuss state of origin with Jimmy Smith

Good source.

There are higher number floating around than that. I am happy to trust that we will get his value right.

Not a lot that can be done if he has an inflated value of his worth.


Its not inflated if another club offers him that amount

It is if they overpaid, for example anyone that thinks Aloiai is worth $600k+ has a very inflated value of his worth.

meanwhile in attack he was:

9th in run metres (3285m) - Mansour was 2nd with 3713 but played two more games
7th in Line breaks (19) - behind Sivo, b. morris, s.katoa, JAC, AJ & tedesco
4th in tackle breaks (112) - only ponga, cotric, and tedesco above him
4th in tries scored (17) - below crichton feldt and johnston
and 5th in amounts of runs (370)

So all you people talking stats and elite wingers etc etc... what more proof would you like?


If your point is that he is pretty good, kinda middle of the road, Im with you.

He's in the top 5 or 10 in the entire comp in some stats and you think he's middle of the road? That doesn't make much sense.

Haha exactly

He's far from middle of the road. There's at least 20 to 30 outside backs behind him in those stats


Well given there are 4 x 16 "outside backs" in the comp, 30 would put his smack in the middle of the road. 20 behind him would mean he is not even middle of the road.

Im not saying he is a not a good player. He is. "Middle of the road" is probably underselling him. He would probably be top 10, I can think of 8 wingers better than him but top 10 out of 32 wingers isnt far off MoR.

He is apparently currently getting $450K pa. Not worth a cent more IMO.

Thanks for the maths lesson, the reality is if he leaves this club wouldn't be able to acquire anyone better, so let's just hope that doesn't happen

We have juniors. A replacement will not be as experienced but he may be faster, a better defender, runs the ball back equally as hard as Nofoaluma and is much cheaper.

That is hilarious. Neither Tommy, AJ or Reece Hoffman play to 50% of nofas capacity, how do U think any of the juniors below them will do much better? Usually takes a few years for wingers to really hit their straps

Why does it have be those three? We have other very good young players. He's not due to depart until end 2021. My support of WTs is not dependent upon Nofoaluma being at the club. Koroibete, JAC and Simona were far better players than him and they have all departed.

Its those 3 as they're the ones that played this year

My supports not dependant on him either, but I would be mad if he left, the same as people are mad that Tedesco is no longer with us

Mad at who?

If someone pays him $600K he is worth $600K......to them. THats how markets work.

IMO he is not worth that much to the Tigers.

His reported asking price is fair in my view. If we want to go cheap on wingers and spend money elsewhere that’s another decision but the fairy tale he’s not worth in the 400s is delusional.

There are higher number floating around than that. I am happy to trust that we will get his value right.

It's looking like Hartigan is our best signing since Sheens

That is market price, not market value. It is possible to pay a market price that is above the market value of a commodity, that usually happens when someone has specific needs or there is a scarcity of the commodity which increases what they are willing to pay.

I believe he along with Scott Woodward will make a huge difference to this club.
