| Quote JEAN CAPDOUZE="JEAN CAPDOUZE"At Brisbane Tomkins will have his fellow countryman Jack Reed.
At St George-Illawarra he will be just the Lonely Pom.
Where Tomkins will not be in demand:
Melbourne: Billy Slater
Canterbury: Ben Barba + Sam Perrett
South Sydney: Greg Inglis
North Queensland: Matt Bowen
Manly: Brett Stewart
Canberra: Reece Robinson
Parramatta: Jarryd Hayne
Sydney Roosters: Roger Tuivasa-Sheck
Newcastle: Darius Boyd
New Zealand Warriors: Kevin Locke
That leaves as Tomkins possibilities, apart from Brisbane and St. George-Illawarra, Wests Tigers, Penrith, Gold Coast, Cronulla'"
Not as sure as you about Canberra or the Roosters where mini has been playing fullback and is OOC. |

Ben Barba also rumoured to be on his way to Brisbane, if true Tomkins won't be going there.

I think Tomkins would be a huge coup for the NRL. It's certainly increase interest in their comp from over here.

Especially true if he goes to a club which doesn't yet have an Englishman. You would have UK fans watching Souths (Burgess brothers), Canterbury (Graham), Melbourne (Widdop), Parramatta (Hock and Mossop), perhaps Brisbane (Reed), plus Tomkins' club.
The other side of the coin is that Australian RL fans will become more interested in the England national team when it plays Australia and even New Zealand. The Burgess brothers are already very popular with Souths fans, and I heard one TV commentator say last weekend that George Burgess already has "a cult following" among Souths fans. So it is a boost for the international game to have so many top quality and very popular English players in Australia's NRL. |

You sound like someone who has never been, let alone live there. Ashfield, Balmain, Quakers Hills? That's just a few nice places. The to put the west of Sydney all in the same column is a massive generalization. |

Regardless of the NRL links it seems that a lot of people will be very surprised if he is not a Union player soon.
Hope not though.
Saracens keeps being mentioned.

| Quote JB Down Under="JB Down Under"Roosters if $BW leaves, knights if Tinkler stays solvent or Broncos though they rarely splash big cash for an"import".
Panthers or Parra would be favourites but who wants to live in west Sydney?'"
He doesn't have to live in Western Sydney to play for Parra. He probably would pick a Sydney team though, as others have said, more fellow English players and Sydney is great City, depends whats he is after though.
Wouldn't mind seeing him at the Roosters, Mini isn't going to be there forever. |

There plenty of decent places in the west, although some areas are horrible, but so is most of towns in the North of England. Just like not all areas of the Eastern suburbs are nice, I have lived there and some areas are worse then in the west. Personally I think the best areas in Sydney are either the northern beaches or down Cronulla way. |
