We dont need to keep splashing the cash on players, if anything we should splash it on our coaching staff and bring in top guys who can help our team grow and our youngsters develop....
      We don't have the same pack as back then. JWH is significantly less effective through age and injury, Cordner is running on one knee, Matto is about as tough and intimidating as Humphrey B Bear, Napa, the purple teletubby.

        If Manly cant fullfill their contract with Tapau then its null and void.Which is most likely the case here.
        As for Mansour? Good player but gee wouldnt want to rely on him.
        Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe

          Ersan Masters was a Roosters jr untill we told him he wasn’t good enough

            * Excludes FPN, who has 1 run for 11m.
            Then performing against our shit forward pack shouldn’t be the measurement of talent should it? I’ve already posted his stats from other games this year that don’t match these “monster numbers” since he’s been hunting for a contract. The guy is FPN who spends his time at the hairdressers instead of being a wanna be gang rapper

              You are right about that, horrific talent identification. I would go as far as saying he could be better than Latrell because he has a very high workrate.

                He averaged 163 metres a game last season. Remind me which front rower in our team had those stats.

                    Manly supposedly have 6 players who haven't received their 3rd party payments, Taupau is one of those.

                      I hear we will also be getting Jason Tulamango, Cameron Smith, Sam Burgess, Semi Rahdrahda, That guy with the moustache, and the 18-year-old giant playing for the Broncos in the next few weeks! (Sorry, on a friggin' iPad and it's hard enough typing with man-sized hands, let alone looking up people's real names and dealing with different pages....I friggin' hate iPads!!!!!!!!).........but sure, if the unsubstantiated rumours that have been officially denied come true, he's welcome!

                        SST and JWH were averaging over 120-130m a game I believe. We didn’t rely on just one player Paul Gallen stats building style. When he comes here and averages about 8-10 hit ups a game and barely cracks the 100m then people will start calling him a dud because he isn’t get the ball as much. If JWH got 20 hitups he’d run for 200m too. Was last year the first and only game he’s played in the finals? He must be good being the star on shit teams

                          Michael Appleby must have been up there.

                          Born and bred in the eastern suburbs.

                            He and Julian "Beetle" Bailey are probably the worst two I seen for us.

                            But all was forgiven for Beetle when he played against us in a final for the Knights.
