Message: [QUOTE="McHunt, post: 3153246, member: 9853"] [COLOR=rgb(255, 255, 255)][I][B]Tallis [/B]is super pumped to have poached his former club's brightest talent in twenty years:[/I] “I am excited because I honestly think Dave Fifita’s signing for the Titans is as big as Mal Meninga’s signing for the Raiders all those years ago. Mal Meninga had a rare aura about him and in my brief meetings with Dave, he just has this presence about him. There is no doubt Dave has this ability to inspire players around him and make guys feel comfortable. There are some special players like Mal Meninga, Sam Burgess or Greg Inglis where as a teammate, when you look to your side and see them beside you, you take comfort knowing you are beside a guy who can win you games." “Dave Fifita has that same aura and presence - and he can turn the Titans into a force.” [ATTACH type="full"]9037[/ATTACH] [I]Awesome bloke[/I] “[B]Dave can be better than me. He has more natural talent than me[/B], but that doesn’t just guarantee you will succeed. Cameron Smith is not the most naturally talented footballer but his football brain is remarkable." “The Titans’ owners have made a statement that they care about the club and the direction of the place and now, signing Fifita, everyone will sit up and take notice. I work on Triple M radio and I have worked with guys who joke they will have a sex change if the Titans win five games in a row." “But with Fifita on board, I can guarantee those silly bets and comments will change, especially with guys like Tino (Fa’asuamaleaui), Herman (Ese’ese) and Keegan Hipgrave at the Titans next season." “There are a lot of young players these days think they know everything. What impressed me with Dave in our few meetings is that he was just a big sponge soaking in all the information. He doesn’t need too much help, let me tell you, the things that took me a whole career to work out Dave already has down pat." “Dave is blessed with speed and his genetics are unbelievable, but he’s no dummy. He has a knack of when the get the ball and how to use his body to break tackles and the ability to think on his feet quickly for a forward. David Fifita is a special talent with the football in his hands, he is a bloody smart kid.” McHunt[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
