OFFICIAL: Wests Tigers sign James Tamou

[JC99]

who were they 4life ?

Joey Leilua played the GF in 2019, Matterson played it in 2018.

Matterson won in 2018- had a stellar season with us in 2019 before promptly chucking a sook and leaving

hopefully Tamou or JAC which ever wins the GF doesnt do the same :joy:

Yeah he was a good signing he was excellent when he played, just a shame about his rotten attitude

Was one of his better games but still wasn't a standout at all. Fisher Harris, Yeo were much more impactful.
"He has been in winning teams so he will help us win"... Lol the people on this forum.

Every time i log in one of thefirst posts that jumps out at me is " Official - Wests tIgers sign " - my heart jumps a beat then i see James Tamou. Its great that we have signed him but my heart will keep jumping until i see JAC after sign.

Jimmy is a Webcke type signing. Never going to be a game breaker but is always there to roll up his sleeves and consistently. Has a quicker than average play the ball that helps the following run.
Very good value for money imo. Outdoes any front rower we have

Not exactly what you want to read as a Tigers supporter, I'm glad we saved a player from retirement, gives me great confidence in our signing knowing that he felt that he was washed up.

Well his performances have been very good and his coaches constantly talk about how hard he works so I’m not too worried

2yrs ago makes it even worse ?, if he felt like hanging up the boots 2yrs ago with until he finishes 9th next year.
Another dud signing imo

He goes unnoticed at Penrith because their pack is a beast.
We'll see how he goes in our wet paper pack
