Junior Tupou #254

[jrtiger]

glad he's getting his start on the wing, will be perfect to ease him in. rip in Junior!

 

[old_man_tiger]

Meteoric fall from the messiah to a cat, now a meteoric rise to FG.

Rip in young fella.

 

[TheDaBoss]

not bad mate not bad

very nice try

 

[Geo]

I liked what I saw from him.. very raw..

Good debut..

 

[oldschooltiger]

Good first game. He has talent

 

[finnzo]

Great first game a lot of potential in this kid

 

[Tigers_Wests]

Nice on attack. Took on some tough hitups out of our end. Showed some good speed and footwork. Great try.

Still alot to work on defensively and with his positioning/reading the play, but bright signs for the future.

Hasn't been lighting it up in lower grades, however might have just needed some quality around him to provide some half chances like Hastings did tonight.

Glad he was given the opportunity. Tough initiation but hope he will be all the better for it.

I thought he was a dud. He was good out there.

 

[pedrolaurie]

better than ken

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Had his best game in NSW Cup last week and looks to be building well.

Positioning needs work but aside from that liked what I saw, excellent 1st try and showed some very nice footwork as well.

 

[ElleryHanley]

Def looked better than expected.

To be fair, he played FB in state cup last week and looked lost. Looks a good wing prospect at this stage, and hopefully can dev into a FB in a few years.

Good debut..

Him and Garner were non existent in D . Garners not a centre.

 

[jadtiger]

He was a light shining in the darkness,very raw but should improve

Don't have a sad man..

19 years old..plenty of upside with him..

 

[king_sirro]

Right centre written all over him. Will take time defensively though

 

[tony soprano]

People's thoughts centre or fullback next week?

 

[king_sirro]

People's thoughts centre or fullback next week?

I'd try him at right centre. Toa left centre. AJ fullback

 

[WT2K]

I thought he was a dud. He was good out there.

As I said in the game thread, of the games in state cup I've watched he didn't offer much. He surprised me tonight and glad to eat my words. Very raw but some promising signs.

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Like what we saw from Tupou. Inexperience and rugby league awareness showed a bit in second half not taking on a bigger workload from the red zone but it has been a while since the Tigers debuted a young outside back that looked as promising.

Deserves another run next week.
