Maybe Tommy didn’t want to relocate to Melbourne and Tigers respected his wishes.
if he had been told it was Melbourne or bust like mansour it might have changed his mind
Penrith were ruthlessYou’re not getting it. Penrith told Mansour because they had a younger, better option. Their reason was legitimate. Us telling a player he’d be in reserve grade even though we’d have no better options is not the same as the Penrith situation.

he would have gone to Melbourne of course he would have played under Bellamy
we would have had JAC
if he decided not to go to Melbourne then he stays I first grade and we don’t lose anything if he kicks stones with us about being told reserve grade then he would have been dropped anyway. -

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.
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).
I’ve heard from someone who quoted from his manager mouth jac would of come if we released talau to storm

I’ve heard from someone who quoted a direct convo with jac manager jac would of came here if tigers did a swap with talau
we should have pushed hard for talau swap with JAC last year and like what Penrith did to mansour if you don’t go you will likely be playing Reggie’s
they didn’t cop too much flack for doing thatPenrith told Mansour cos they had Staines. You think we should have told Tommy out of spite
no told to go to get JAC not out of spite he was what storm wanted.
No. If Tommy said no, you said the club should tell him he’d be in reserve grade. Even though there’s no suitable replacement, like the Panthers had. That’s spite
Melbourne wanted Talau FACT
Wests tigers said No to deal
we should have said yes and if Talau did not want to go to Melbourne you tell him you end up in reserve grade, with that he agrees to go to a premiership team and we would have had JACThats a great way to attack young talent.
Have a track record of trading them with threats of reserve grade. Seriously no club would do that in this day and age… and what happens if he still says no play him reggies just to make a point… its dumb to do especially for a club that’s struggling. It’s simple if Talau didn’t want to go he couldn’t have been forced to go. -

Tbh he looks like he’s trimmed down from last year but I haven’t seen him with any space this year. Like I said we aren’t using our edges really well, we also seem very flat and not coming onto the ball. I think at wing we will see if he’s gotten quicker, he did have hammy problems last year with all the size he put on. With Talau he’s a great tackle breaker and ever better finisher. He played mostly at wing last year and was 4th highest in meters.

We’d probably just play with 12 players on the field man I think that’s what Jedi is saying
Hope that helps

He’s dangerous close to the line … anywhere else he’s pretty useless IMO
Showed some pretty good signs last year he was more than capable of being a first grader footballer but hasn’t backed it up so far

I wanted him as well (like most of us) but I’m happy to go in another direction.
I was hoping for instant success this year, still think we are a chance for the top8.
But look at the top teams, they have been together for a long time and the they may lose one, but they don’t lose continuity, we will get there, once we have the core right.

"Glamour’ clubs; however, with players wanting to play for them can be more straightforward - look at Flanagan- doesn’t work out - Roosters, you’re out the door. Same for Matterson, AJ and others like Pearce. I just hope one day we become more attractive - atm the moment we’re like mutton dressed as lamb.

They told Mansour he won’t get a game with them as they already had players contracted better than him.
Talau was a trade topic. If he doesn’t want to leave (family/lifestyle), he wouldn’t. We still have Hoffman and how is that going? He isn’t exactly setting reggies on fire. Kepoa played 4 games and most wanted him gone because he isn’t up to grade yet & is now in reggies.
What your saying isn’t business sound or logically because Tommy is better than those you talk about.
Be a very dumb club to drop someone who is better that those around him…

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.
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).
I’ve heard from someone who quoted from his manager mouth jac would of come if we released talau to storm

I’ve heard from someone who quoted a direct convo with jac manager jac would of came here if tigers did a swap with talau
we should have pushed hard for talau swap with JAC last year and like what Penrith did to mansour if you don’t go you will likely be playing Reggie’s
they didn’t cop too much flack for doing thatPenrith told Mansour cos they had Staines. You think we should have told Tommy out of spite
no told to go to get JAC not out of spite he was what storm wanted.
No. If Tommy said no, you said the club should tell him he’d be in reserve grade. Even though there’s no suitable replacement, like the Panthers had. That’s spite
Melbourne wanted Talau FACT
Wests tigers said No to deal
we should have said yes and if Talau did not want to go to Melbourne you tell him you end up in reserve grade, with that he agrees to go to a premiership team and we would have had JACThats a great way to attack young talent.
Have a track record of trading them with threats of reserve grade. Seriously no club would do that in this day and age… and what happens if he still says no play him reggies just to make a point… its dumb to do especially for a club that’s struggling. It’s simple if Talau didn’t want to go he couldn’t have been forced to go.Penrith told a SOO and kangaroo in mansour to pack his bags I’m sure we could have done the same to Tommy.
it would have been 2021 as Melbourne were not asking about talau until the very end of 2020 season over we could have blooded Hoffman etc if Tommy talau kicked stones if he had said no and we had Roberts and Laurie and Kepoa so we would have had some replacements if he had dug his heels in and said noI am more than happy with Laurie, and so far he is much better option at the FB and JAC would not be happy to stay on the wing.

They told Mansour he won’t get a game with them as they already had players contracted better than him.
Talau was a trade topic. If he doesn’t want to leave (family/lifestyle), he wouldn’t. We still have Hoffman and how is that going? He isn’t exactly setting reggies on fire. Kepoa played 4 games and most wanted him gone because he isn’t up to grade yet & is now in reggies.
What your saying isn’t business sound or logically because Tommy is better than those you talk about.
Be a very dumb club to drop someone who is better that those around him…
he would have gone to Melbourne under bellamy let’s be real.
You ask who would have been talau’s replacement it would have been JAC with the swap
