2027 half back and five eigth

[Speed2burn]

Recent History shows that you need one of your best players (Big Money) at no:7 to win when it counts.
Unfortunately in our squad we don’t have that and don’t seem to have the salary to make it happen.
Luai was not that type of player, so glad to see him move on.
The recruitment team need to plan ahead and get someone (a 7 not another 6)
At the moment we have to many 6’ers

The last 2 grand final player of the matches have been fullbacks

In particular last year where Reynolds was injured in the 1st half and Walsh completely dominated

??? This years premiers best player was a fullback , defeating the other teams best player —- a fullback . Defeating a team in the semi finals who’s best player was a centre . The only team in the final 4 who’s best player was a halfback was the panthers

I did say ONE of your best players,
I don’t think with our squad we even know who our no:7 will be let alone being ONE of our best players.
That was my point

The disappointment 😥 😞

Brandon Wakeman is staying at Manly for the next two years no home coming boys

If Perth get Burton, there's an argument that they have better halves than us. And I don't rate Burton/Sexton very highly.

They had the Dogs on top of the ladder two years ago.
