Tallyn Da Silva #270

[BAGNF05]

I’d say they are wanting Da Silva to play a fed full games in NSW Cup as part of his development.
When talking about Api playing 80mins for our NRL team, o ask why do we continue to do this when the Panthers only saw him as a 40-50min player 3 years ago ?

Did you watch v Souths? Unfortunately we’re not Penrith.

He's just 'socialising' with his mate

I think if we lose TDS, the club will have a lot more to answer for, than TDS.

So are you saying that the club should not resign api just to keep tds?

His attack is generally good for 80mins, but he’s a target in defence due to lack of size and always misses his fair share of tackles due to fatigue.

Yeah it’s true. The key is not getting behind in games so you can rest him. Haven’t been doing that lately.

Exactly. Nothing wrong with sending a 19/20yo player back to reserve game to work on specific areas & get match fitness up playing 80 mins. I'd say many are putting 2 + 2 together and getting 22.

I don't buy this.

I've said I'm quite confident in him staying - but now I'm conflicted.

The timing of this demotion is what gets me. If it's development related it would have been done much earlier.

Would go one year with mutual options thereafter. He’d be still a 700-750K player, maybe more if he’s on the radar of Bears.

Probably Api too. There's a real chance we lose both of them.

Man that would be terrible. I hope we are not that club any more!

Do you think Richo is waiting for Tallyn to resign before he gets back to first grade?

 

[supercoach]

I was at Henson today TDS was a class above the other 33 players

32 - Luke Laulii was also well above

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

Let's wait for this braindead club to extend Api and release Da Silva.

 

[Alex Seyfarth's #1 Fan]

Might be needed next week. Api in trouble with a hip drop tackle.

32 - Luke Laulii was also well above

Another lacklustre effort by the senior team failed to take the shine of what was an awesome day at Henson. That was Laulii's best game in KOE. His attack was scintillating, he returned the ball strongly and he was safe under the high ball. While Laulii and Da Silva were the obvious standouts, it was a wholehearted team performance and arguably our best win since we beat the Jets in 2023.

Well his manager came out and said that if API resigns that Tallyn is leaving

He didn't leave the door open for a transition.. he didn't mention it..

If they are open to sharing minutes with api over the next 2 seasons then say that.. talk about a transition plan. Put that out in there rather than "if API signs TDs is out"

MY interpretation is that he wants out if he's not starting hooker... Well he hasn't earnt that right yet.. so off ya hop.

Well, maybe they should double check with his manager just to make sure …sometimes people compromise and TDS might cop 1 more year sharing the role … I really think TDS will at least be equal ability with 34 year old Api come 2027 , and with a long career still ahead of him, so it’s a decision they need to be very careful with …

No

If TDS is developing, then a definite yes.

2027 TDS will be starting to hit his straps whilst API is going the other way. Sorry API, great player for us but time to go.

And then we have the next five years to enjoy TDS, the future is TDS not Api
