Timana Tahu accused of racially abusing youth

Go the Eels.

Dear Mr. Kearney,

You don't know me, but I am a passionate Parramatta Eels member and fan. Please, please, please do not hesitate to tell Timana Tahu to take a long walk off a shirt pier. The man is clearly mentally unwell and he's dragged this great, proud club through the mud one too many times.

And if losing a quality player is your concern, I hear Willie Tonga is keen on a comeback. And Jacob Loko, young as he may be, has a good head on his shoulders. Joel Reddy is the incumbent, and worse comes to worse, we could slot Benny Smith in his spot. We'd lose something up front but hell - you won't see Benny Smith carrying on like a pigeon.

So, please, Mr. Kearney - tell him to go away. For the sake of this once powerful and proud club.

Sincerely yours,

Eelementary

he needs to pull timana in for a chat no question maybe he would be better off starting in wenty until he gets his head straight

Can people stop with the "clearly mentally unwell" bullsh*t.

I cant see how people are making these judgements on people, without knowing the truth.

I am constantly amazed at the sheep mentality of people, when it comes believing what they read (especially from the Daily Terrorgraph).

Why do some "supporters" within our club single out so much hatred for him? Do they have a bone to pick, I wonder?

 

[mrpwnd]

Obviously not.

But can I just say that Tahu has gone out to central NSW to play in a Koori league tournament when he could be sipping Pina Coladas like most other players who are holidaying in all points of the world, and instead of being proud of the bloke for contributing to the community and continuing the great work our club does, he gets bagged and called a sook!

Good on the guy. Imagine the thoughts of people on here if it was Hindy or Jarryd doing this?? fmd.

Well done T - take a bow !!

Yeah...So allegedly having a verbal(AND racial) exchange with one the kids he's trying to help out is great and Hindy or Hayne would be immune to it if the same thing happened....Right....

Calm down mate. You are clearly not mentally well.

Go the Mighty Eels

Mate I am certain it didn't happen. And amazingly he is alleged to have said the EXACT same thing Johns said. Surely anyone can see through this nonsense.

Dear Mr. Kearney,

You don't know me, but I am a passionate Parramatta Eels member and fan. Please, please, please do not hesitate to tell Timana Tahu to take a long walk off a short pier - provided he is guilty. The man is clearly mentally unwell and he's dragged this great, proud club through the mud one too many times.

And if losing a quality player is your concern, I hear Willie Tonga is keen on a comeback. And Jacob Loko, young as he may be, has a good head on his shoulders. Joel Reddy is the incumbent, and worse comes to worse, we could slot Benny Smith in his spot. We'd lose something up front but hell - you won't see Benny Smith carrying on like a pigeon.

The saddest thing about this post is that he has actually edited it...

I'd really hate to see how ridiculous it was before being fixed up.

 

[Eelementary]

I love the Eels

 

[mrpwnd]

Whether Tahu did or dint say this in no way changes the fact that what Andrew Johns said was not acceptable

It's not a matter of if it was acceptable or not, that's not what i'm saying. I'm saying that, if the allegations to Tahu are true, then Joey did not deserve the media sh*tstorm that he got, especially considering recent exchanges between Young and Farrah who handled it between themselves, doesn't necessarily mean Joey's a holy angel that did the right thing.

I just added the line "provided he's guilty". If he's innocent then he can do as he pleases.

And ridiculous? It's smarter than anything you've ever posted. Fact.

But in case it went over your head (as it clearly did; I see my intellect and wit is way too subtle for someone like you to pick up on), it was mostly a tongue-in-cheek post.

 

[fish eel]

So how the hell would any of you know whether or not Tahu needs help for mental health issues. You wouldn't have a clue.

 

[Eelementary]

Parra! Parra! Parra!

Then what was the kids intention in telling his dad?
Is he a gold digger?No, the media already know so it's abit late to blackmail.
Is he trying to become famous and hope to crack first grade through publicity? Again, I doubt this, it takes more than playing the victim card to hit first grade
Is he just stupid? Maybe, but funny enough, most idiots can pick out racism when it's directed at them.

There aren't too many things going on Tahu's way, it's fair to say that he probably let loose a very tiny, minor comment that everyone as individuals can be susceptible to making, but given his recent stance towards the same comments directed towards him he doesn't have the luxury of being careless and everything points to him letting his guard down and being careless in this instance.

He doesn't need a psychologist.
He needs a primary school teacher.

I'm basing it on my opinion, from what I have heard, seen and attained from speaking to people.

It's human nature - we often speculate. We see a guy on the footy field and say, "He's unfit." We don't know for sure, but it's what we do. We see/hear/do something and make judgements from it.

 

[fish eel]

You're just basing this off political correctness. For all you know I'm a psychologist and have spoken in-depth with Timana.

I'm not, for the record. I know someone who is, and we spend a lot of time talking about issues in sport (him being an Eels fan too).

No, it's got nothing to do with political correctness. I don't see how it is even pc to suggest that most posters on here do not have the foggiest when it comes to Tahu's state of mind, and whether or not he suffers from a mental illness.

You are deadset dribbling now.

And your last 4 or 5 posts make it clear you lied about posting tonggue in cheek.

Probably best you go for another one of those "talks" with your "friend" the psychologist. In fact I would schedule a series of regular checkup "talks" if I were you.

At most he'd probably be diagnosed with a mild case of PD-NOS(Personality disorder not otherwise specified), mostly due to a passive aggressive personality disorder. But, even then, it takes very severe cases to properly diagnose someone, I don't really think Tahu is mentally ill, just very stupid and careless.

lol here we go. The 'mentally unwell' excuse.

You can take medication for medical conditions. But there's no pill you can take for being a wanker.
