[list=][/list]Has now also announced hes leaving and tomorrow will be his last home game

Re: Tinarau : Wed Aug 24, 2022 4:39 pm  

Right call, I feel, on this one for both parties.

Has been great for us over the past 7 years

Re: Tinarau : Wed Aug 24, 2022 5:10 pm  

Yes he has been a very good servant to the club. If my memory serves, didnt he come over to replace Tautai when Wigan pinched him. Wigans loss our gain.

We could do a lot worse on the recruiting front than bagging ourselves another Arona type of player , and just to think he’d never heard of us before he signed ,turned out a cracker

Agree with this
Much rather have a grafter like Arona than any of those Australian fancy fan signings that FC and wire seem to have perfected to a fine art!

Think i may be wrong but didnt he come same time as A Topou who came has the big superstar signing while tinni was unknown but tinni certainly been the star

Yes that's what I recall too.

Been a fantastic servant to the club and lovely guy to boot,

Re: Tinarau : Wed Aug 24, 2022 6:38 pm  

Being a tremendous club servant for us
This year in particular he’s really tried to carry us forward

Good luck to you Tiny and thank you for all your efforts in the red white n blue

Arona has been a real good player for us, i’d say value for money wise over 7 seasons probably one of the better overseas players we’ve had. He’s been playing very well in recent weeks as well, glad to see he’s leaving on a high. Thanks for everything Tini.

Would love for him to stay on in a coaching role myself, been a great player for us. Good luck chap in whatever you do next.
