First Team
Tommy’s 2019 and 2020 seasons were memorable ones.
He was named Super League’s top try scorer in 2019 having bagged 23 tries including three hat-tricks as well as the top metre maker. He was again named in the Super League Dream Team and helped Saints to Grand Final success which included kicking a 40 meter drop goal at Old Trafford. He missed out on the Great Britain tour mind after dislocating his shoulder in the Final.
Last season it was his crucial drop goal which rebounded off the sticks for THAT Jack Welsby try which secured our back to back Grand Final triumph.
2018 was another stand out year for the winger who was not only named in the Dream Team but made Wayne Bennett’s England squad – scoring a hat-trick in the second test against the Kiwis.
It followed his stellar debut in the Denver test against the same side and eventually led him to take home the 2018 Rugby League International Federation’s Golden Boot!
At Saints he led with distinction too, proving to be one of Justin Holbrook’s best players as Saints scooped the League Leaders’ Shield.
Tommy made his debut against Salford in February 2011 but it was when Ade Gardner got injured that the youngster came into his own.
He played 22 matches for the club and scored 12 tries as well as kicking six goals.
He produced that and more in 2012 giving him a real shot at international honours.
A deserved England Knights call up came in 2013, alongside a season that saw him emerge as one of the most potent finishers in the game.
He’s continued to be one of Saints best assets and is one appearance from making 200 in the Red V.
Tommy isn’t afraid to take the ball up to the line to relieve his forwards and it’s that facet of his game that brought international recognition – as well as his ability to score in the minutest of spaces.
