Cini is doing well in state cup. Must be close to a call up. He is an interesting player, not particularly fast but seems allusive and strong. Can’t see him offering any less than Talau or Kepao are at the moment.
Sorry , but can’t agree… I was pumping for Cini previously but after watching the game i think he offers nothing. Cooper looked good ,Fitzy s fast in the legs but nowhere else.

Jesus some of are fans have the shortest Memory! The kid is 20, played less than 20 games in 3 different positions.he has one of the best try scoring rates in the team. Averaged 4th in Meters per game last year for us. Played the first game of the bench this year then the next inside nofa and the last 2 on the oppsixs edge inside AJ. Let him play in a position consistently and I think we will see him at his best. He’s a genuine tackle breaker, unfortunately our attack is a bit clunky and hasn’t given our edges early ball. Let’s not forget the storm wanted him before and after they asked for nofa. They had Momo in there squad and they still requested Tommy.
This week he’s playing wing! I garuntee you he makes 100+ meters and runs hard. I’m putting him down for a try this week!It’s sickening we let momo and JAC go for this bloke. Once again the club all in on the wrong bloke.
Did we?
I watched JAC on vossey show last night said as a kid in situations where you make a wish as a kid he’d wish to play for the wests tigers. I can’t make any positive comments that front office could not get that done!
We desperately need another quality winger.

Lol he ran close to 200m he’s on fire lately. I’d be inclined to start playing on the wing in reserves in preparation.

Out of the youngsters he is probably the one I have been most disappointed with. He doesn’t want to play wing but can’t be a centre if he doesn’t know how to pass to his winger. I’d say he has to have a stint and as risky as it is being BJ back.

Did you miss the part where he said he’d already signed for Storm and then Jason Taylor handed him his debut anyway?
The whole thing about JAC we just have to bury is he signed for Storm before he even put his first grade jersey on for Tigers, and the only reason that happened is because Storm were desperate for a fast winger when Koroibete left for Union.
Tigers were negotiating with JAC but he’d literally only been at the club 1 offseason and a few matches before he went somewhere else.
re Talau though, JAC has nothing to do with it. JAC signed for Storm in 2016 (starting 2017), Talau didn’t sign for Tigers until 2018 (starting 2019).

He’s worth persisting with, unlike AJ, who really needs some time in NSW cup.

At least we gave him a start and realised his worth. The Sharks saw no value in him at all.

This week he’s playing wing! I garuntee you he makes 100+ meters and runs hard. I’m putting him down for a try this week!a level headed assessment, so my only question is does he have the acceleration/long distance speed to play on the wing long term.

Tbh. I’m shocked he got moved to wing and Kepoa got dropped. Talau for mine has been much worse in defence than Kepoa.
That Fergo try he was there to make a tackle and he butchered it. It was a joke of an effort. Even with Kepoa doing half an effort on Fergo talau certainly should of been able to wrap it up! -
He was dropped from Bulldogs. Maybe he gets by on his father’s name and reputation.

Looked to have some promise last year. This year he seems lethargic and disinterested
