Since joining Young this year, the Kiwi playmaker’s starring role for the Cherrypickers has been a great vote catcher in the Weissel Medal count.
With the release of the Weissel Medal standings after eight rounds, Talimalie is leading the way with 11 votes, only one vote ahead of Kangaroos flyer Tristan Dickson.
Significantly, Talimalie’s teammate Kyle Richens is third on the Weissel Medal list with nine votes, while Hayden Philp (Temora), Luke Berkrey (Gundagai), Simon Wilson (Junee) and Robbie Byatt (Tumbarumba) are next on eight.
