Tolman is doing exactly what I expected him to when we signed him - he is a work horse, nothing more nothing less. the tackles and runs he makes are one less someone else has to expend energy on. he is there to hold things down not make a big impact, it's a nice bonus he doesn't miss many tackles, make many mistakes and has a big motor. He actually racked up the most PCM behind Woods. he has decent leg drive

Would love to see him somehow bag a try this season for us

As for Woods not getting over the advantage line? this is something he does well week to week and rarely gets dominated

I'd like to see him stick around, not in out Top 17 but as depth and good to be around the club with his experience. Handy depth

he was a rock

allows those around him to focus on their jobs - doesn't give us any trouble . makes his runs, make his tackles . can take some punishment too

Good, glad we'll keep him around.

I don't particularly want him in our 17 but we can do alot worse and be great to have around.

He was very solid tonight - massive for us in the middle especially when it comes to defence

huge involvement tonight and look how stoked he was when that field goal went over. must be nice for him not playing for the dogs these days

has a strange flaying arm motion with his tackles at times, looks buggered and gets beaten yet always keeps running back to finish of the tackle with help. never gives up. despite all this still topped our tackle count and kept racking them up

specialist work horse - the kind you can flog and doesn't complain , just makes him more keen to come back for more

keep him around the club next year, at worst is cheap reliable depth that does his job
