No

Can someone start a Lim Lafai is in talks with the Tigers thread. I might say yes to that kind of class.

Okay, so we can tick off another current Australian rep that the forum doesn't want.

Not current but …Yeah...

Prop is pretty well covered ATM...Anything we would have to pay Tamou would be overs on current form IMO...

 

[underdog]

He's replaced Ryan James as the official Council Worker of Fantasy NRL.

Pull horrendous numbers, and last night his god-awful arm grabbing made Robert Lui look like Trevor Gillmeister in comparison.

Never seen anyone look so lacklustre in defense - AND IM A TIGERS FAN! :smiley:

 

[foreveratiger]

What i have seen of him so far this year , My God nothing short of dreadful.

Watch him how he played last night let in a couple of tries with poor attempted tackles.
His Hit ups lack aggression and Mongrel for the size of the bloke.

I'm happy with what we got Lodge and Woods will be our Props for a long time to come.

 

[tig_prmz]

No thanks. I actually have never seen anything good in him.

I see his career graph like David shillingtons from here on in.

I would actually prefer Tamou over Beau Scott.

 

[Sabre]

Of all the off contract forwards I would like Alex Glenn, if not him then Dylan Napa.

Napa added another two years either Thursday or Friday I believe

I'll take Arona from Sharks > all of the above.

 

[cktiger]

You can tell he is not happy - his body is going through the motions but his head isn't there.

 

[Milky]

Having a look at Tamous offensive stats they don't seem that bad, cracks 100m in all his games although his defense isn't all that great, missed a few tackles in each game.

 

[Black_Orange_White]

Lodge is better and cheaper. Tamou is garbage.

A bloke who is a SOO player should be able to rise above that and show up to play every week

Your getting paid extremely well to play a game you love ffs , a million blokes would love to replace you

Easy said happy - but there have been plenty of these young guys who can't handle things emotionally.
Sometimes, no matter how much you try, your head won't let your forget what's been troubling you.

If a 7 year pro who has played the game at the highest level can't focus for 80 minutes we certainly don't need or want him

Would you agree ??

Kurt Cobain was a millionaire who blew his brains out.

Your job and the money you make doesn't always make you immune to feeling like shit about life. That's not to say, Taumou is feeling that way, but if he was, there are precedents that have been set previously.

Okay, so we can tick off another current Australian rep that the forum doesn't want.

Have you seen him play lately,he let in the first 2 tries last night,and we have plenty of depth at prop,it would be money wasted we could have used to buy a centre.

I never said we did need him, happy - initial comment was that everyone seems to disregard anybody with runs on the board and hopes all the young kids will kick on.
In regards to focusing - depends on how troubled you are.
The fact that he's trying to get out means somethings amiss.

 

[foreveratiger]

He goes missing in the big games just like Origin ( beats me how he even got that far ).
He made Lui look like a gun defender last night .

When the going gets tough he goes missing IMO
