During the 2005 season, Tanner was one of twelve players fined for breaking team curfew and engaging in acts which brought the club into disrepute. Tanner was cut from the squad at the end of the 2007 season.[3][4]
Tanner returned to his home town of Kurri Kurri where he played with the Kurri Bulldogs and was selected to represent Newcastle in the 2009 Regional Championships.[5]
