Tallyn Da Silva #270

[tigerballs]

He will and people will pretend they never rated him anyway.

I said it before the season start, I'm not convinced TDS is NRL standard. He's shown flashes of okayness when coming off the bench but mostly, he's a weak defender, gives away too many penalties and throws a lot of poor passes from DH. I know he's only young but he hasn't shown anything to be suggest he's the Messiah.

If he is rumoured to be getting 650k a year at parra then good luck to him, I don’t blame him for chasing that coin

He is not worth that much IMO..

I can only hope we have already extended Api and will start putting time into Haywood now.

Tomorrow will be interesting indeed .. I hope we at least get 1 external player as I will be pissed if we just promote 4 players that do not deserve to be upgraded just to make the deadline.

He's a raw young player. He's gotten a long term contract on big dollars that I wouldn't have offered. It's not clear yet that he is a first grade talent and he has mostly struggled when he starts.


However, we had him on a decent contract until the end of next year. I see no benefit to letting him go, even if he was to sign elsewhere at the end of this season. You need depth and variety in your squad and he has been excellent when partnered with Api. Really disappointing again. The club is getting schooled on and off the field.

 

[vlad]

sorry to see him go but a lot more respect for him going to a club on the rebuild than someone else who went to a team at the top of the table

TDS to the Eels...

I called this weeks ago and someone replied to me that won't happen because they have a very good young hooker

The Eels breaking the rules how funny and I called Bud staying at Souths Richo made a deal months ago

The only other good rumour I have heard is the Canterbury forward coming to the Tigers

 

[user118245]

he's been released before api extends, tigers can still mess this up!!!! 😁🤦‍♂️

Which Canterbury forward @Odessa ? Zyon Maiu’u?

@stephen
Paws just half reminded me, there was a game early in and Lids did a length of the field chase down off an interception that was impressive. He was pretty quick, but injuries can slow you up.

Absolutely, mate. He's had his share of injury setbacks. Mostly during his time here. I reckon it really held him back. I've always been a fan & would love to have seen him at his best with us. Gotta look forward, though, and glad to see him going OK.

How many player's have we let go recently with nothing in return
Too many

I read we dont want players that dont wanna be here...that leaves sfa

That sounds about right Ink, who'd really want to be here the way this place is run?

 

[Tiger_Yoshi]

Which one?

Zyon the kiwi prop

 

[Properossi]

Still makes me laugh Galvin shafted them

I think the clown has shafted the game of rugby league by pretending to be a footballer!

 

[Odessa]

Which one?

The rumour doing the rounds is that Kikau will be pushed out he is on big money and 2 or 3 of there young forwards all have been asking for up grades

Preston is reported on $375K and wants more

Kikau Apparently has been offered to the Tigers and will have to pay full $$$ for him

 

[jirskyr]

Its been a doner kebab of a season... started out beautiful and full of expectation... ended up a sloppy mess tossing the last bit away

I always like the end of a kebab though, pulling those last bits of meat out of the wrapper.

 

[Westoz]

Curran is on big money 650k+

Him or Kikau will be forced out very soon

 

[boonboon]

he's been released before api extends, tigers can still mess this up!!!! 😁🤦‍♂️

Given the release hasn't been announced yet hard to say he is released before Api extends, plus even if it is how do you know Api didn't agree a month ago when Tallyn started to be shopped.

I am 100% certain Api will extend

 

[Aceshigh]

I'd take Brendan Hands from Parra.
Penrith Juniour.

Came through as a 6 but has been playing hooker the past season and a half @ Parra.

I like his style. He's behind Smith & TDS now.
He'd be a suitable player to play cup and fill in first grade when needed.

With all the signings Parra have made, surely they could let one go.

The rumour doing the rounds is that Kikau will be pushed out he is on big money and 2 or 3 of there young forwards all have been asking for up grades

Preston is reported on $375K and wants more

Kikau Apparently has been offered to the Tigers and will have to pay full $$$ for him

I’d be happy if u got that one right

 

[Odessa]

I’d be happy if u got that one right

30 ish maybe 2-3 year contract Penrith contract could be worth it

 

[hank37w]

It's not a player swap. I don't know why they released him early but you can't expect the players you would like to get in return will want to come
Pretty sure the Roosters released Dom Young and Brandon Smith without getting anything in return from either club.

True, the Roosters have let players go but it looks like they were surplus to their current requirements.

Look at the talent that the Roosters have coming through and are even talking about letting Sandon Smith go despite the fact that he is currently killing it.

After a pretty poor start where many had the Roosters written off for the year (me included), they are now coming home with a wet sail and are well entrenched in the top 8 while the Wests Tigers have shit the bed. 😡

It would seem to me that the difference between the Roosters and the Wests Tigers is that they are well managed and well coached.

 

[hank37w]

So he did want him?

Does Benji know yet if he is leaving?

Someone should tell him. 🤣
