Tass hasn’t proved himself to be a ‘top shelf first grader’. He’s a solid first reserve. His game is limited but he holds his own. Just the kind of guy you want hanging around waiting to cover for injury. In a perfect world, he shouldn’t be able to make our fully fit starting side as a top 4 contender.

Thing is, I rate him massively higher than Bryson Goodwin and I never heard Souths fans crying in their cornflakes when we re-signed him.

Goodwin is a good comp.

Especially as he wasn’t good enough to make the 2014 premiership winning side. Solid first reserve like Tass though.

I don’t know people were crying in their cornflakes, the 3 years seemed a bit of a surprising commitment for a guy that sits 18-25 in your roster is all.

Hyperbole for emphasis my man. Come on.

All one needs to do is read about eleventy replies to the Tass re-signing news. You might not have, but others.....

Think i am in between.
Not a top gun obviously but I think he has and can be a really solid first grader.
I am looking forward to seeing how he returns for us. He has had plenty of time to reflect on his game.
Obviously WB was happy to keep him for another 3 years.
Again fingers crossed.

I really don’t understand why people are down on Tass, he’s absolutely proved himself a top shelf first grader
It’s bizarre how supporters get a bee in their bonnet about certain players, when he did have an ordinary season so did everyone else & he’s obviously had some injury issues, but we know the quality is there

If AJ isn’t ready round 1 this is what I’d go with wouldn’t second guess it (providing Trell can use his 1 game suspension for All Stars game)

Trell
Munro
Campbell
Wighton
Tass

Goodwin was very handy, especially with the goalkicking string to his bow.

I really liked him.

I disagree

Both good players, different teams, different circumstances, different era, different dynamics around the team
There’s no reason to even compare players

I think Tass has the potential to go to another level with some really good players around him, he seems to have a good nose for a try & backs up well, decent footy brain; might get a little lost in defence sometimes but I’m sure the team will all be working hard on defence in the preseason
