Punt him
OFFICIAL Kelma Tuilagi
- Thread starter Geo
- Start date
Take off your arguman hat bro, And actually ponder the reality of the situation (if even for a minute)
We short of quality backrowers right now - We're short!!
We're short without the injuries....
We're losing the 2 decent guys we have and replacing them with one good one for next year... But we're already short.
We have another off contract this year - Even if we want to keep him, We may not... and is he really a starting backrower anywhere but here?
Have a look at the quality / depth of Parras back row stocks last year
(And they're couldn't win the comp)
Penrith - Had an Origin quality backrower coming off the Bench.
Surely it's easier to keep the guys you have than to get the guys to come that aren't even here yet?
We're getting a top notch back rower - Yes, But we're still 2 Short (Probably 3)... There's not an abundance of them running around ATM, And even if there was - We're at best a 1/17 chance of getting them.
He's played all his juniors as a prop/lock so I don't think so. Good player though.

Tigers up to their usual tricks of getting rid of anyone with talent I see.
That and coming 9th is an art in itself

There was a post on here a week or so ago stating that Tuilagi fell out with the playing group a few months ago. If that’s the case, you can‘t blame the club for this outcome.
my bad I didn't mean for that to have a condescending tone

I think you are right on this one
All clubs poach up and coming players.
Very sad to see Kelma leaving. At least he is leaving with some dignity.

As soon as we sign a replacement the heat will be off and the narrative will change. Especially if we sign a boom rookie like Nanai.

That’s the thing tho he wasn’t a starting back row, he had just had his debut and was only 5 games in playing off the bench in limited minutes.

Worst kept secret in NRL, it was on the radio, Manly's Zorba the Greek came out and said it weeks ago, but alas our media group is last to let it out, or have they?
Don't get me started with injury reports.
How's our HPC going, oh that's right, I forgot that the media releases for the club is usually pinned to one of the porta-loos there.

.... He started in Round 1. He looks every chance to hold that starting spot. He may not have a history of being a starter, but is now and looks very likely to be on a continuing basis.
I need a counter here for this phrase as I'm losing track of the number of times I've said it....
'He's the best current second rower at the club'.
Maybe we should try and ditch the duds and keep the gooduns

Forget Nanai. He is likely to the dolphins as they have tabled him a huge offer.
That’s Nikora in the video with Madge. Not Nanai

You think there's no one in that whole squad getting an upgrade between now and then?
800k off the cap for next year, Doesn't ever mean there's an automatic 800k to spend.

Wish more people understood that it isn’t how it works, thus the paper bags…
