Surely we can do better than that. Or do you mean as an assistant coach?

Tamou would bring alot of experience. But really, only makes sense if he was happy to play more of a backup/bench role on a low dollar deal.
Thay said, he's still got a decent offload and is defensively solid, he seems fairly fit and durable still.

The writing is well and truly on the wall with Munster. Whilst disappointing, I can’t argue with how we have handled it. Even offering him $800K is a stretch for us with all of our cap tied up elsewhere in the spine.

It is inevitable and we just need to enjoy the ride whilst we still can.

I would be happy to pick up Tamou on a relatively cheap deal.

If you gave Tamou the option of playing with the Storm on a cheap deal or retiring, he would take playing with the Storm with both hands.

Plus with Brandon Smith leaving we need someone that will verbally abuse the referees.

Potentially...... apparently the offer has been upped and anasta has said its in the ballpark, but wouldn't publicly disclose what the new offer is when pressed by Kent. Reiterated that munster loves the storm.
