Def a lot of talent and given he could have played not just flegg but sg ball this year he was amazing. Will be better next season after another off season too and keep getting better. While we need to sign some players now we also need to make sure we keep room in the cap for these guys

Don’t know about being eligible for ball as he is turning 20 this year, but a young middle player anyway. Tuki has a great offload and if he can gain a bit more mobility is a good chance of having a successful career.
 
I think physical development, not dissimilar to Seyfarth is what will make him stand out a lot more in FG. His offload is without his biggest weapon. I think he just needs another couple of kgs of muscle and to really work on his mobility as he looks like he'll be playing in the middle of the field. Having a 13 combo between Seyfarth and Simpkins would be my preference moving forward.

Definitely needs to hit the gym. Huge body at so young but just seems like he’s a bit soft at the moment. Needs to be in the 17 most weeks next season.

Yep, the muscle maturity should come over the next couple of years - needs to work on his power game - it's all won in the collision.

Birthday boy ready for a breakout year! 🥳
 
not sure about tuki simpkins think the 2 cowboys second rowers show more than him. Prepared to call it early don't think he will make it
hope I'm wrong
 
I think if he gets to stay in the top grade he will improve week in week out , to me he needs game time the same for Blore , both need opportunity to show and improve
 
He's looking pretty lean at the moment. Will be interesting to see what position they develop him in, lock or second row

Hope he goes good. Plenty of time left for him to develop

He moves really slow, can def tell he comes from a union background

More time in the game and he could surprise hopefully. He looked like a top prospect early in the season / trials

His body shape is Union all over. Give him two years and help be a top prospect. He has lock written all over him.
 
He provides a great offload while attracting two or three defenders. I look forward to his rapid improvement to become a mainstay of the pack.

Just honest criticism tbh.

But there’s definitely been moments in cup footy that have wow’d me

Lol, what a ridiculously stupid thing to say.

You're also comparing him to second rowers when he's a prop/lock. Pathetic
