Any update on bill injured midway season

No

It's Tupou.

Aka the mini beast

Hope he is on the mend but unfortunately think wehave seen the best of billy now injuries and age csught up with him.sad has he has been a great player for us

It’s a very serious injury to come back from, not only physically but mentally too. I really like Tupou, he’s a great centre. As a player though coming Back from any injury, it must always be there in their mind hoping not to re do the same injury etc which must effect their performances.

One of the better centres we have had at Wakefield

Bit of a bold statement that squire.

Certainly SL era. Agree

Better than Atkins, Collis, Domic, or Lyne and Arundel?

At his peak he was right up there with Domic and didn't need Solomona to get there. IMHO

Quite right he didn't need Solomona at Wire, I could have mentioned others like Millard but once you start comparing players then you tend to dismiss other players when comparing them which is unfair in my opinion hence my initial post.

I just think Bill was phenomenal for us in that season when he played every minute of every game and got into the dream team. Would I put him in front of JD? Probably not but don't ask me why.

Or Domic to name another, or Westwood who was a centre at the time.

Personally for me Collis was the best.

They were all very good quality players and very little if anything to separate any of them, Domic was my favourite without taking anything away from the others.

Totally forgot about JD

Domic collis lynne jd all better feel now bill is a waste of a quota apot if to be honest

So was Neil Fox. It doesn't mean that Tupou is past it.
Let's judge him when he's back fit.

Wasn't Tupou brought in with Arona and Moore to cover those players that MC allowed to leave because they didn't have the stomach for a fight? In BTs case to replace Collis?

He as got an injury alot of players struggle to get back from hes either been
Injured or out of form for last 2 seasons cos he hasnt offered nothing.ypur the prime example of wakey fans and sticking with sentiment

Two separate discussions here?

1.Bill Tupou at his best was one of the best centres we've had in the super League era.
2. I agree that we are unlikely to see him return that sort of form again if he ever returns at all.

IMHO the like of Tupou Domic and Collis in their pomp were a sight to behold and would have graced most super league teams .JD didn’t have the same skill sets as these IMO but made up for that by playing every game with his heart on his sleeve ,and I’d be hard pushed to name a player to have played for us with more pride and passion than JD. And that is why he is up with the best ever centres at our club in my books ,not because of his amazing hands or vision but because he had the heart of a lion and a never say die attitude, and a good solid to boot . If we had a team full of JD’s I’m dam sure we’d be in the play off’s on a regular basis, and for me he was our very own marquee player on a budget for what he did at our club

He is still on contract what do you suggest rip it up?

With you all the way on this one.

Sadly, I think we've seen the best out of him, and I'd Arundel was staying, he would be my third choice centre now, of the established ones.

I do also partly agree with Luppy, how he's a waste of a quota spot, but he is contrated. At the moment, he is one, that I would consider releasing in the future

Arona signed a couple of days before BJB, but for reasons best known to the club didn't announce it till BJB's signing.
