General discussion on match form, selection, injuries, contracts, and anything else here.

As an outsider (and what's worse, a Manly fan), this guy is your best forward. Uncompromising, and hardly puts a foot wrong.

Whatever he's on, it's not enough. Especially considering the disparity between Williams' pay and performance.

The mind boggles thinking we might lose him while keeping Williams.

In my opinion, the Bulldogs sit in a premiership window for the next few years. Tolman will want to be part of that. I hope he stays.

I love the amount of work this bloke does, he has a passion and a drive to do it. Hopefully we keep him, he has been one my favorites.

Got to agree

Especially when Tolman knows his work rate has to compensate for the loss of Kasiano and Graham and do hos own share as well. How the hell could we sell a bloke that committed to the "Blue & White".

Tolmans work rate is incredible. He lodged heavy minutes last year making 30+ tackles and 17 hitups.
No nonsense forward, considering we already have "flair" in Kasiano and Graham (amongst others), Tolman is a must keep.

Would rather lose Pritchard at this stage due to the wealth of talented back rowers and Tony Williams.
Still hate to see any of them go.

I think people are being a bit hasty in their assessment of Williams. He's at a new club and he's had a handful of gallops. He'll be a great buy for us and this will commence tomorrow against his old club. Tony Williams is too much of a talent not to succeed. He's tasted the dizzy heights and will be back there again.
Patience should be extended for at least another 24 hours. You'll see the real T-Rex firing on all 4 legs tomorrow.

Care to re-think this post ? He's useless and the criticism is warranted.

This guy has the makings of Steve price. Will be a great enforcer for many years no matter which club he ends up at. Future captain. Great leadership qualities. Never gets noticed. Stepped in last week as captain when ennis was off.

Play big mins, makes good meters and tackles his heart out. Never gives up. Had a few long chases last year that got him back onside for the next play and made a try saver (not something you would expect from your front rower. I know T-Rex wouldnt have been there thats for sure).

Tireless worker who never gets recognised. If he was a Queenslander would have played origin by now. Still only a young pup. Hope for his sake the Parra offer is true. $650k for a front rower is unheard of. That would be set him up well.

There's a few other guys that should be released before the hard working honest Tolman. He's been our best of late.

In the article Tolman doesn't sound like it bothers him too much if he leaves so he can leave.
