Where does everyone see tupous best position

I honestly see him as a Centre on the future

Got the build

 

[Kaito]

Not a fan of this move. Storm get a first grade player from a bottom team to booster them before the finals. Sets a poor precedent for the NRL as a whole

I hear you, Bellamy and Sheens
are thick as theives though,
I'm glad we have a good rapport
with a top club, I'm okay with it

YOUNG GUN ON THE OUTER AT MANLY

I'm hearing all is not well between Manly and talented utility Josh Schuster.

Schuster has been hailed as the next big thing at Brookvale for several years but you only had to look at his body language - and seven errors - against the Dragons last weekend to see something isn't right.

Schuster was promised the No.6 jersey a couple of years ago… but lost out to Kieran Foran, who Schuster was told would be moved to hooker.

Last weekend, even with regular hooker Lachlan Croker out, Foran kept the five-eighth spot and Schuster remained on the bench.

The big guy has talent but hasn't lived up to the hype and the Sea Eagles believe he is carrying too much weight, adding to the tension.

Don't be surprised if he is wearing another team's colours in 2023.

go after Schuster perfect player for Sheens to work with

I reckon if Sheens was around during the nofo JAC trade talk it woukd have happened

 

[Cobarcats]

I agree. He is a game breaker. He has to want it though.

I'd sign him under the conditions that I said and nothing less.

 

[batboy]

He will kill it there

He's a slower version of Marion Seve...
He might find out it's not all about him, Harder than it looks - And might get found out the same way he does with us.

 

[Cobarcats]

Does anyone know if the Brown or Stains rumours are correct ?

Ask your local barber mate, they would know more than what the club spoon feeds us.

 

[Tiger913]

Anyone know why Moses Leota isn’t in panthers first grade, has he been out? If not I’m trying to convince him, he’s exactly the type of forward we need.

Hes a beast ! but would be really hard to get him to leave Penrith.

Don't think I'd want him at 6 here either and that's the only way you'd get him.

Needs to drop about 10 kg to be an effective 6.

Penrith Panthers already did it last year with Tevita Pangai Jr.

He wants to be 6 at Manly but there's Buckley's chance that will happen.
If he was firing, fit and focussed, I'd rather have him than Peachey.
Also a backup to the role that JH is playing at lock.

If true, we may have a chance with his former links with Wayne Lambkin.

 

[loklok]

I really like him. That offload and run he did played a big part in us winning that game.

He may be talked up too much due to the Brooks haters but I also would have put money on our halves pairing this year ending up Hastings and Doueihi. Now I'm not sure what will happen.

Maybe it's wrong to compare them.

What really helped was Hastings being more direct in attack as a link man to brooks giving douehi space .but brooks always drifts across field its a bad habit he has in attack especially down a short side raid .runs his players out of space .hope brooks takes notice of that

Apparently he's been promised the 6 next year when Foran goes, but that's not the first time he's been promised something that didn't happen.

I hope they like what they see and try and buy out his WT contract

 

[KH1988]

Josh Schuster looks as engaged at Manly as Moses did in his last few games for the Tigers

 

[tigre]

'Huge scoop' that Nofo will be loaned to the Storm for the back end of the season.

Source: All of the major media outlets.

Good move. Couldn't get AD or Laurie. End up with Nofo, ha!

On the nose with his WT teammates apparently.

If Dessy can't get him firing I'm not sure Sheens/Benji can do much either. We also seem to have a number of 5/8s already, or blokes putting their hand up to play there, i.e. Brooks, Doeuhie, Laurie (if Staines signs as a FB). His 2021 form in the backrow has me wondering if Doeuhie (as another self proclaimed 5/8) might be an option there, next year when he's back to full fitness? He's certainly big enough and would have sensational ball-playing skills for that position.
