Past #26: Tarryn Thomas - Roo until end '24

[Kimbo]

Can we call it the 'Harvey Norman' clause?

Oh gawd, please don't.

 

[Dodecahedron]

Dear AFL,

In case you were wondering.....I have a sneaky hunch that we can see what you're doing here.
It's so cunningly disguised.
So craftily cloaked in stealth.

Regards,
DDH

The Other TT megathread imminent.

 

[Only Forwards]

The Academy is something to be wary of.

The AFL do not just give things out and expect nothing in return.

We're not Sydney.

The Other TT megathread imminent.

It has.


Begun.

 

[Hojuman]

Yeh, but how's his tank ?

 

[astrovic]

I'm just going to assume he's a better version of Jim and Phil combined and be bitterly disappointed if he isn't.

 

[Heaps of fun]

Listening to Bryce Lewis on Road to the Draft
Cal Twomey: Tarryn Thomas
Brewis: Who?

Funny bugger.

 

[The Big H]

Still very young and very slight. I'll try and get to a few more Bombers games, particularly next year to make more of an assessment. But lets hope he's more Wells than Tambling!

 

[nelroo]

Love it that he is already 186cm at 16, who knows how much taller he will get. Exciting.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Requesting mega-thread status.

 

[Arden]

Watching him now v NSW at Southport.

Hasn't had much of it but is silk. Is getting thrown everywhere, has been down back, in the middle and stints one out in the forward line. Am right next to the coaches box, you can tell that he is their main man, the way they are throwing him around where needed.

Looks about 6'1", lean as but sticks his tackles. Clean by foot, some of his passes haven't come off but moreso because his team mates aren't at his level.

And according to security, fapping in public at junior sport is frowned upon.

They hype has begun.

 

[Phillyroo]

Want to get in on this thread earlyish... Very excited looks like the exact type of player we need.

 

[Shermanator]

Adam Goodes MkII?

Minus the ruck ability

I'm thinking more Burgoyneish.

Kicked a goal in the third, is playing mainly forward now that Tassie's midfield is on top.

Not much of a tank though, doesn't run hard and is getting benched often for a spell.

Hands below the knees are amazing though.

I'm thinking Daniel Wells with added height.

Not asking for much really.

 

[Arden]

Just walked away but I think TT was just named player of the carnival for Div 2.

Did you get him to sign on the dotted tine mare?

 

[Twinkletoes]

I was?

I need a larger trophy cabinet.

As for The Other TT, he's sounding like Stephen Michael, a FHoFer.

Not the first time you've been named 'player of the carnival'.

NTTAWWT.

 

[KangaRooster]

The kid sounds like he could be a weapon, and we're definitely owed some A+ talent hand delivered with a smile by the footy gods.

Expect a fight I'd say..

 

[Jazny]

Think that is because they were using all of their 25 man squad. I could be wrong :/

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Still don't think we will get much from a Tassie academy but if we can pinch a few like TT it will at least be worth the investment.

 

[Dugdale2Dwyer]

I reckon the AFL will let this guy to us to sweeten the tassie deal. We're like junkies.
