Read an article earlier in the week about Tomkins not having any contact with his new team mates before the semi was played, "because they are still the opposition" got to love that attitude of we aren't going for the same result yet. Also good to see that now it's done and dusted they get the chance to meet without the competition between them. Stamp of approval from Manu especially will mean heaps back here as well.
 
They all look like someone has gone up to them and Said " Can you three pose for a photo for the Warriors and forget you're meant to hate each other this week......CHEESE "
I find it quite interesting what the players are wearing. So many have been outspoken about professionalism and dressing up to represent the team. No hoodies for Ben and Manu, and a tie for the guy who is coming here to teach us about professionalism.

I'm sure there is no devious choriography to this photo, but it is a good look.

I'm not sure I have ever seen Mutts in a suit jacket, or Manu in a shirt collar.

would love to have seen a reply from Tomkins - 'thanks man, um, who are you and what crap?'
Like an admirer you didn't know you had " Sorry about all this crap between us "

I think Tomkins will fit in well at the club and be a fantastic FB for the Warriors and Locke will move on at the end of 2014. I don't think that Tomkins will have the same sort of impact on the entire club in the same way that a player like SBW would have (did you see the article of Waerea talking about going back to union? wth - Williams), I think the Warriors players coming back from being in a positive camp with the Kiwis will have more of that kind of impact than Tomkins. I've hated the build up to his eventual arrival its not like Warriors fans haven't been built up before only to suffer another disappointment, quite sick of the disappointment. If he can come in and be the best FB the Warriors have ever seen I'll be happy enough with that. Locke moving on to a better situation to play the position he prefers, I'll be happy enough with that too.

I personally think that Webb was our best ever fullback and still cannot fathom why we let him go.
Hope we dont do the same to Tomkins.
