Timana or Inu

This seems obvious doesnt it. Timana has achieved everything in rugby league, while Inu has done nothing but score a few tries and kick some goals. In a perfect world you would want to keep both but in this world with the salary cap and Gallop the wanker then we can only keep one since Joel Reddy has the other position on lockdown..

For me, I would resign Inu to a decent contract and let Timana go at end of season. Because Timana is not the player he once was, what told me this was when he kicked through near the end of the game today and was one on one with wesser. The old Tahu would have picked it up and scored, but this one now looked like he had nothing left.

and at what stage of the game did this happen?

tahu is still nsw's leading try scorer amongst active players with 8 in 11 matches, and only 3 shy of mick o'connors record.

his track record dictates that he should be selected.

Tahu by a mile. Bye bye Inu. He was yet again woeful. A no brainer for me.

Tahu lifted the team big time.

what was their backline towards the end of the game. i know burt switched to fullback, and tahu went deep for the fifth tackle like a winger. that would leave hayne at centre where he played more of a second five eighth role. possible combination maybe?

I hope they dont pick Timana for Origin not that he'd make it on form.

His body at this stage of career cannot take that many games.

Ill be happy just having Hayne representing origin.

I thought Burt was only swapped with Hayne cause Hayne got slightly injured in a tackle.

Tahu would only get picked for like game 3, series tied 1-1 throw the talented but experienced guy in. Too many other obvious backs in front of him.

no doubt tahu shut down the whole right side attack of the rabbits. if he continues this form, i reckon they should throw him in an origin jumper. the last time he played origin, nsw won their last series. :crazy:

Actually last time he played origin was '06... which we lost. If it wasn't for Morris's breakthrough last year, Tahu would be a shoe in for origin. If Hayne gets the fullback spot I reckon he'll play origin though. We've had too many shocking origin wingers like Turner, McManus, Williams get a go and fail to not give a proven performer like Tahu a shot in front of them.

Actually, I thought Tahu was one of our top three today.

I think Tahu fired up our players, he was bloody fantastic today, in defence and attack. Well done T.

love em both to death but have to lean towards T, INU's attempt on Best today nearly drove me to drink, which I might add isn't difficult to do...

I was saying I needed a few shots after that attempted tackle, we had the same idea Stagger!:D

Tahu was the catalyst for everything good that Parra did in the game this afternoon.

Tahu at his best is that type of player, almost won the 2007 semi on his own against melbourne. If he can get back to that form then we will be very hard to beat.

TBH, on Inu's game today, and Reddy's last week, I'd take Jono Wright!!

But otherwise, Inu.
