Past #26: Tarryn Thomas [Part II] - will honor his contract and play on at NMFC in 2024, so says the reality TV manager

[King Corey]

FWIW (for comparison) NRL player Josh Addo-Carr (The Fox) was recorded at 38.7 kph in a game last year, and he’s an absolute jet.

Far out TT.

Imagine if the swans had the same retention issues as the storm after they transformed bog standard players into guns.

Does Baz still have his Nike contract?

 

[Val Keating]

If he was the best player in the league that would likely be occurring because he wasn't wasting time and energy doing stupid stuff off field.

Not necessarily.

 

[Colby Cheer Squad]

Honestly losing the nike sponsorship might be one of the only things that could make him reconsider his attitude and actions.

The clubs sticking by him, he's guaranteed his money due to the ridiculous contract stipulations the AFLPA got them re: termination of contract unless they can prove something pretty horrific.

Losing the nike deal hits him in the back pocket, and also his professional image. Dropped by one of the hottest companies in the world.

That Nike contract probably wasn't worth very much money.

 

[shintemaster]

Not necessarily.

Not necessarily, but likely.

 

[DarkPhoenix]

That Nike contract probably wasn't worth very much money.

But being able to say "I'm sponsored by Nike" means a lot.

Could also just be that he isn’t getting a game. I wonder if he was the best player in the comp if they’d let it slide?

Nah they wouldn't. I'm not suggesting that these companies are altruistic but being a celeb won't stop you getting dumped if you do or say things they don't want their brand associated with. A notable one is the mass dumping of Kanye West. Adidas had millions of dollars tied up in his line of products but pulled the pin, as did many other companies.

Let me guess, Adidas despite not selling them also won’t give them to people that can’t afford runners?

It’s also funny that and ironic that Adidas was tied with the Nazis lol

Tiger woods was banging cocktail waitress & pornstars 2 ata time …

Liked for the Godfather reference!

 

[Heaps of fun]

He's be lucky to get a Lowes sponsorship now.

I spoke to someone that would know over the weekend. It had been on the agenda for a while. And was pushed for months ago. Latest was the last straw

Its worth at least a pair of TN’s… Eshay Brahhh

yeah, good point. Did de Goey lose a shoe sponsor at any point?

No idea mate

this kid never learns I’ve officially given up. Charges or not he’s never putting on a north jersey again, he should be supporting the boys in his HOMETOWN of tassie not drinking with the clubs manager

He's probably had more nights at clubs than he has days at the club this year, fair dinkum.

Don’t think they’d even want him there tbh.

Clearly has the maturity of a teenager. His career is literally hanging by a thread.

Queue the articles in 20 yrs time when his life’s off the rails and the commentary that North didn’t do enough to support him. In fact it could be much sooner than that.

 

[Sphynx]

Piss test him every Saturday morning for the next month.

Easy way out of the contract.

 

[Lavy_Panther]

The usual suspects will point to the fact that he's young and he's allowed to go out/have a life outside of football. Which is true.

The reality is that this type of behaviour is not consistent with someone who is desperate to hang onto his AFL career.

 

[DunderHead]

With the 25km discussion - I think running at that tilt on a treadmill would be extremely hard. Sorry I didn’t see the vision but i assume that’s how he was training.

I can run significantly faster on land than a treadmill. If I tried to do 25km on a treadmill I’m absolutely certain I would stack.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Again it certainly looks like a young man who is devastated to not be playing football and is doing everything he can to get back to being at the footy club and earning the respect of his teammates

Was that last night?

The fact that he not only keeps doing it, but then chooses to put it on social media means that he is intentionally taunting the club.

The relationship must be rock bottom. TT is just taking the money now.
