Tommy T Injured - usa bound

[DieHardManlyFan]

Regardless of whether there has been a deliberate change of style .. (and why would you want to change the style of the most potent footballer in the comp) ... or it is just Tom adjusting to his new running regime ....the issue is .. has he been as influential in winning games as he usually is ...

I think he has still been influential ... but he has been far from the destructive force we are used to ...

Americans play a different style of game. It’s probably why we haven’t seen many transitions from over there into the NRL. When I look at Trell I see a similar thing, tbh I’m a little concerned it’s a mindset thing. Not only for Manly fans but also Blues fans.

I think Tommy left his heart back in the States with Knowles.

Watching last nights NRL 360. They all said Tommy is nowhere near 100% fit or firing in any match this season.

Lacking confidence etc etc. But they reckon he will be right for Origin !!!

Just what we need , he’s fit for Origin , then gets injured again.

Oh whoopee

When he's fit & in form he's the best player in the comp. I'm sure at some point in the future he will be again. The only question is how long it takes. If the club has the stomach for it & if at some point Tom realises the club cant go paying a million bucks plus a season for a bench spot. There will have to be some renegotiation on his contract in terms of how many games he plays.

I'm glad we have shows like that on TV. It's so insightful. Sigh.

Next they'll be telling us what a nice guy Jake is.

He'll be 100% fit by Origin time. My head will explode if he does while serving up mediocrity for Manly.

Sounds like we need a poll. 😀 That would be ironic if it did happen like this.

Hopefully Tommy will explode this week and rip Melb to pieces.

I hate all the emphasis on origin - game wide. They are not the be all and end all and are talked about far to early for far to long.

Wouldn't be holding my breath for that one.

Not to mention DCE managing games for Queensland.

Turbo needs to give Latrell a call and ask him if he is still using any learnings from the Usa.
Latrell is back to his powerful best.

Tommy needs to be, quick smart.

And please tomorrow night - no one off hit ups on tackle 4.

Mitchell's treatment was 6 or 7 months earlier than Turbo's. No worries if it takes time to work, so long as it works.

If they pack him with enough explosives, that might happen.

Hopefully his own teammates and fans at the ground don’t wind up as collateral damage.

Gone for how many weeks with his groin injury?

Only silver lining is its a great opportunity for Weekes while Tommy no-turbo is out.

 

[MANLY4LIFE]

I think this american has gotten into his head so much about how to run and pivot and change his mechanics etc that its ruined his natural game

He will forever be the broken ferrari ….

 

[mave]

It's almost as if trying to change the way a person's body naturally runs, leads to other issues.

Who could of possibly seen this coming?

 

[The Insomniac]

Everyone's disappointed for Tommy. But he needs to get back to running naturally. Slowest fullback in the NRL @ the moment.

Never has looked himself in 2023 he is playing very reserved this year.
