Brent Read is reporting that North Queensland Cowboys and former Origin and Test Winger Murray Taulagi is set to depart the Cowboys. Being off-contract and the Cowboys in a cap crunch with Jaxon Purdue, Scott Drinkwater and Jeremiah Nanai coming off-contract in the next two years, Tualagi is seen as a casualty in order to re-sign talent and also sign a Halfback with Roosters Halfback, Hugo Savala, linked to the Townsville based outfit.
Timing is everything and if you mind me putting my tinfoil hat of hope on could this timing of Lomax being released and Taulagi on the outer be coincidence? Is Taulagi a nice replacement for Lomax? Definately. He averaged 177 metres per game this year, big body, wonderful finsher, experienced and played both for Queensland and Australia. Plus he also has nice offload game.
Taulagi would be a nice get if we want a Winger that can emulate similar to Lomax, particularly in terms of yardage. St. George Illawarra are the first team linked as they are with everyone, if we are going for Garrick over him, it is a missed opportunity with Taulagi being younger and more damaging than Garrick.

He would be a good team physio/doctor lol ... maybe He can help develop the brains of those who run this club too
LOL
Son of God, Lord of all Creation, Parramatta Physio
He may even repair Mattos brain
Not sure how safe his hands would be after crucifixion episode. 🤔
Our players will be playing drunk. Someone needs to tell him that water bottles are not for Wine.
I mean mad Mondays he would be worth it, get 50 jugs of water for free and come out plastered.
He is the GOAT of catering
Yea I have been seeing that Tualagi is essentially a done deal to Dragons. JR for some reason must have a lot of faith in Simmo. I think Tualagi is a target we MUST aim for. Garrick is not the solution
Taulagi is slower than Lomax.
Yet he has killed it for QLD and played for Australia. To'o would be slower than Lomax too.
EA we could have signed prime Andrew Ettingshausen and people here would find something to complain about.
