Billy Slater of Super League, Do you think he will fit into our side? If we pull off this signing this is how our side should look for next year

1\. Tomkins
2\. Koroibete
3\. Nofolauama
4\. Ayshford
5\. Tedesco
6\. Marshall
7\. Brooks
8\. Woods
9\. Farah
10\. Buchanan
11\. Thomson
12\. Pettybourne
13\. Sironen

14\. Blair
15\. Fulton
16\. BMM
17\. Ava
 
Probably not realistic BM96

You'll need a heap of cap space to buy Tomkins and Tedesco will probably be almost as good within 2-3 seasons and far cheaper
 
Yeah I don't see a need for Tomkins at all. Tedesco's the guy the club should be and is building up to become the long term fullback. Kurtis Rowe also seems a capable back up too, so it's hard to see us showing any interest
 
BM96 are you eveR going to be consistent on your centres first it was Lawrence then Thompson then Brien then Simona and now Nofolauama. And im pretty sure Sirro and Reddy have been thrown in there aswell.

Tedesco is the next Billy Slater of the NRL, so no.

big praise so quick? He's good, but Billy Slater? Slater got rookie of the year in his 1st year and origin in his 2nd; not saying teddy can't do it but it's a big ask to live up to the lofty heights of slater.
 
If it was possible I'd have him. He's definitely a quality 1\. We are hoping tedesco becomes a quality 1\. I'd rather go with certainties.

Haha far from it. This guy never puts his body on the line! Which is exactly what we lack at the moment. Got great speed and great step, woeful defence and avoids contact at any expense. Can't see him succeeding in the NRL like he does over there

Geez, he sounds like Moltzen.
 
Have you ever watched Tomkins play?
He is that bad under the high ball that there is no way he;d be playing 1st grade at fullback.
Only spot in the NRL i can see for him is on the wing.
He is too small for the halves.
 
Right now is the perfect time for us to be focusing on Tedesco. With Potter at the helm, he could definitely school him, and iron out his game.

Timmy has been defensively solid for us, so Im hoping that they move him into the halves with Siro, and Teddy gets a second chance to make his bones and has a blinder. Moltzen is a bit of a fringe floater around our squad, not great anywhere, but a fairly decent second option. Hopefully next week Harry makes these changes, and we find a spot for Moltz' speed and ballskills to be better tapped somewhere else on the park.

So big No to Tomkins from me. Massive waste of cash when what we really need is a specialist winger, or super solid, wide backline utility to move around as we promote.
 
yawn, another ridiculous thread.
any one keeping count of how many team combinations this guy has named?

not going to happen.
 
For you to take Tomkins, it will cost you massively as he is under contract for a couple of years. I think Titan's were looking but the fee wigan wanted was massive and then to pay his salary, they couldn't afford him. Sam Tomkins in the NRL would be huge imo of course.

Was in the paper the other week that Titan were looking, but wigan wanted a hefty fee to release Tomkins from his contract. Titans said they couldn't afford the fee on top of the salary Tomkins would want. Not herd anything regarding Warriors. Although Tomkins will be going to the NRL weather that is next season or the year after.
