Tame Tupou

[ningnangnong]

Is coming back to play for the Tigers!

I always liked Tame, even if he was a bit slow on the turn and said his name was Gary.

Can't wait to see him back in the NRL. icon_smile

 

[Foordy]

he would have been a decent winger for us if he could hold on to the ball

 

[Clintos]

To be fair, Gary is much easier to say than Tame.

 

[Raw Boned Youngster]

Gary was always a bit too Tame for mine.

Lol. Unless the "Queen Mary" has improved his ability to turn and chase, this is an horrific signing for the Tigs.

Lol. Unless the "Queen Mary" has improved his ability to turn and chase, this is an horrific signing for the Tigs.

And his ability to mark his opposing man. Always runs infield unnecessarily.

But in saying that, Tuiaki and Tupou on the wings is pretty imposing.

 

[Clintos]

He scored something like 10 tries in 12 games before he got injured. He's a good finisher, he just needs to fine tune other aspects of him game and he will be brilliant.

 

[Coxy]

Lolz. If he worked on his agility maybe he'll be a good winger. But brilliant? Lolz.

 

[Clintos]

Brilliant might have been a bit steep. LOL.

He has the size and speed, if he could work out his general positioning and his butterfingers I don't see a reason why he couldn't be another Sailor or Tuqiri.

 

[Jeba]

That's also steep.

 

[Clintos]

I didn't say he would, I said that I think it's a possibility - regardless of the likelihood of it happening.

 

[Coxy]

That's like saying if I lost some more fat, built up a tonne of muscle, spent 8 hours a day on a stretching machine to increase my height, constant training sessions and took oodles of steroids I might one day be as big, strong, fast and skillful as Lote Tuqiri and Wendell Sailor.

Modern science can work miracles.

But turning myself or Tupou into a Tuqiri or Sailor? Not a chance.

But turning myself or Tupou into a Tuqiri or Sailor? Not a chance.

If Michael Jackson could turn himself white ......

 

[Clintos]

Stop exaggerating would you. Were talking about a current football player - not some nuffie off the side of the road. Besides, you're much too old Coxy.

 

[Coxy]

Sorry, Tupou is not a footballer. He might play football and have played football for NZ, but he's no better than "some nuffie off the side of the road"...the only thing he's got over me is he's big. And probably dumb.

 

[Clintos]

What a load of rubbish!

Apart from the dumb part.
