A couple of decent touches but by no means the superstar he is being hyped up to be.
Wigan ... have him back?

| Now that he is a small fish in a big pond he won't be as effective.

| bit early after one game to come to any conclusions.at least give the guy a dozen games before making judgment.by all accounts he was excellent pre season games.
I watched the game.the warriors were poor,especially defensively out wide and tomkins was well policed.

| he set two tries up and your still moaning? but he does need to concentrate more on his running game as he was devastating now he looking to be more of a daren Lockyer.
be more worried about the softness of the forwards and chad townsend looked lost some reason you played with split halves? when against the broncos the 1,6 and 7 was linking so well. defensive line was none existent but the warriors are always slow starts.

| It was an OK start. He set up 2 tries but was at fault for one (dropping a bomb) and on another he was stepped and slipped over as last man.
His running game was completly shut down by the eels and he had few kick return opportunities.
When you think the eels were wooden spooners last year, it shows the sheer strength of the powerhouse nrl.

| Only seen very brief highlights but he looked too weak in defence. I cannot see him playing out the season at full back because of that. I think they'll have to move him to stand off or centre.

| Was thinking the same, honestly I don't think he will see out his contract, and will return to Wigan. He is a marked man over there and I don't think the Aussies will appreciate a Brit being the "best in the world"
Think also him being in a Lower order team will affect him as he will also have to do a lot more work in defence and I don't think that is his strong suit if I'm frank.

| The warriors overall looked very poor. If your gonna base your opinion on one match, then its gonna be a long season for the warriors.

| Some serious kneejerk reactions based on one game of NRL.
Have some conveniently forgot that Morley, Ellis and Burgess in particular were pretty ordinary in their first season of NRL?
I do think that Tomkins may have to bulk up a bit for the NRL though.

| If they want rid of Tomkins they can't be very happy with Johnson or their pack.

| It's Elliott they need rid of.
He's a hopeless coach.
