Even though I’m not a huge fan of Aitken he is needed right now. we don’t have any centres and there is no guarantee Talau, AD, or JTJ will be back this year.
Someone over at WTF reckons that he has good mail that Raiders have approached Tigers with Tapine. Would be perfect IMO. Raiders wasting him in the middle for mine.
Will believe it when he runs out in Black, Gold & White but dreams are free.

This is good news.
This is good news.
...........not news, speculation at this stage....supposedly from a great source but also from the same stable that brought us "Cotric is signed".
Caveat emptor.
@tiger5150 thanks for the clarification, I got a bit too excited. Just the type of player we need.

Agreed.....and I think every Tigers fan knows that feeling, which is why I poured the cold water....
@kenny4517 I like the potential signing. Good ball runner than seems really solid in defense that can cover center and doesn’t block Blore if he returns well from injury well.
Airmen just needs some glue remover ...sometimes goes himself when he should pass ...apart from that good player

Airman ?.. this is not another James Taumalolo thing again
I wonder what has happened with Tuki Simpkins.
He looked like he was raw but in the club's plan for the future. Considering the back row situation, he must have dropped off big time.
Anyone heard anything?
I reckon Sheens isn’t a fan
It seems as though Tuki has fallen out of favour since Sheens/ McDonnell came back to the club.
It really defies logic IMO. The guy has talent. He's shown it at NRL level. Twice as likely to offload compared to a Twal or a Seyfarth and makes more metres per carry than both players.
The magpies have been getting lapped every week and I havent see any of their matches but cant imagine that Tuki is the sole reason for their demise? Maybe others who have attended reggies can report more on this?

Might be an attitude problem?

I've only watched the one game live Vs Jets a few weeks back. Tuki did some good things in the 2nd half but made a couple of very costly and lazy errors in the 1st... really didn't look like his head was in it, didn't take part much in the behind the line huddles (there was a few of them so I probably didn't watch them all!). It's so obvious that he has plenty of talent and I couldn't understand why he wasn't having a better go.

I havent seen any of the reggies this year, but Tuki in the trials was pathetic. Really disappointed in the way he looked and played. REcent news that the club has said he can look around indicates to me (as did the early games) that his head isnt in it. Shame because he has talent and size but at this age if it isnt starting to happen, it wont.

Just remember as well he got up to some mischief in the pre season ...if you are then not impressing ....he ain't the Cheese ...Reece Walsh or Munster
