Plot twist: Talia is a triple agent. He is actually seeking a trade to them so that he can force his way into their lineup, then get towelled up by Toyd in next year's grand final, handing us an easy win. Then in a touching moment, he proclaims "expecto patronum" after the game and it turns out that his patronus is a bulldog, and he is using the happy thought of the bulldogs winning the grand final to cast it.
