Fonua Pole #257

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Pole genuinely already our best forward, in terms of bending the line and using footwork and leg speed, has been forced into 16 tackles in 17 mins with just about nothing other than yardage sets. To no surprise it has stopped him being able to produce anything at all with the ball.

We need to hang on to this kid and reward him with a starting jersey more often send musgrove back to the bench

 

[supercoach]

He is going to be the best forward in the comp . I just can’t believe the kids work rate in both D and A . Needs to be locked up long term

 

[jadtiger]

Once again he can hold his head high,Laurie and Joffa being the other 2 who i thought went ok

Joffa so undeniable.

Just turns up every week and does his job.
We are not worthy.
Classy player.

2 year extension please 🙏

1 try assist
34 tackles + 65 metres on 7 runs in 47 mins for Pole off the bench.

He had some nice off loads. Joe O and him are quality. Maybe Tamou won't get another contract.

love the kid, has a crack and has something about him, him, Ice, Steph,Joffa and a couple of big bopper front rowers are what we need and the forward pack will be good

I hope not Earl, Tamou is cooked

 

[Demps]

Our best prop tonight & he's a rookie.

 

[WT2K]

Showed the vets how it's done. Looking forward to seeing him with a full nrl preseason under his belt.

 

[GarryOwen]

The one good thing to come out of this absolute shit show of a season.

 

[The SHADOW]

Still can’t put a bad comment on his thread. Champion.

 

[supercoach]

For a kid that is not built like the Incredible Hulk he offers so much . His work rate and defensive technique is unbelievable. He is going to be a great NRL player

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Since his debut, Fonua Pole has been the only consistent performer week on week. A genuine positive to come out from this year. Long time since a rookie came in and looked as at home as anyone else in the team.

 

[Demps]

This guy is a player we've been looking for... for years.

An impact prop that actually makes metres.

A shining light amongst a team of reserve graders and losers.

This guy has earnt his place, not only in the team but the hearts of many Tigers fans.

Walk tall, Fonua Pole.
You have a HUGE future.
Hopefully they can put a decent team around him that can actually compete, because he deserves it.

👑

He is real good. He doesn't seem like a stupid footballer.

 

[Muffstar]

I thought Brown also showed some good stuff today too.

There is a Q and A on Talking Wests Tigers instagram from today with Pole.

Ofahengaue is mentioned twice as being someone he looks up to at the club. Good to see Joffa taking on a leader type role and helping these young guys.

Joe has won me over in a big way this year and keeping him for another 3yrs is great business by us. He is our forward leader and great to see this from the kids
