Why are people talking about singing a halve i thought we had 6/7 who could play in that position hence why we are letting Benji go.
So as far as I am concerned that’s one of the last positions we need to fill,after all it’s about balancing our squad isn’t it

We have many 6/7 that can play in that position - how many of them are worth a bean.

It's like using public transport instead of buying a Ferrari. Think I'll take the Ferrari myself.

Enjoy the public transport Goanna57.

Nothing wrong with public transport Russell it’s a lot cheaper and quite reliable,besides it keeps me employed.Remember it’s all about the balance of the squad so we don’t need another halve got any number can play there

I understand - but none of them play it well enough that is why we need a play maker.

Russell I agree but what path do we go down ,wait for a proven experience player or the he’s got lots of potential but as yet not prove

Burton, Clifford and Drinkwater are all off contract at the end of 2021 - we have to start thinking of a solution by November 1 or they will all be gone. There will be others off contract at that time as well Flanagan, Williams, Dearden, Johnson, Fogarty etc.

However if we are not in there on November 1 - forget it.

Fogarty is a very good half and goal kicker.

Just re-signed with titans

That's why we have to be knocking on the door on November 1.

Soon as it hits midnight November 1st we gotta start ringing players. The sooner the better

I'll tip you..no Club waits to that stupid date..

Can’t officially offer them anything until then. Until that date everything is just talk

Again, he couldn’t OFFICIALLY sign anything until he was released. Not saying we shouldn’t talk to players before November but as soon as we can we need to offer guys that we want contracts.

Why are people talking about singing a halve i thought we had 6/7 who could play in that position hence why we are letting Benji go.
So as far as I am concerned that’s one of the last positions we need to fill,after all it’s about balancing our squad isn’t it

We have many 6/7 that can play in that position - how many of them are worth a bean.

It's like using public transport instead of buying a Ferrari. Think I'll take the Ferrari myself.

Enjoy the public transport Goanna57.

Nothing wrong with public transport Russell it’s a lot cheaper and quite reliable,besides it keeps me employed.Remember it’s all about the balance of the squad so we don’t need another halve got any number can play there

I understand - but none of them play it well enough that is why we need a play maker.

Russell I agree but what path do we go down ,wait for a proven experience player or the he’s got lots of potential but as yet not prove

Burton, Clifford and Drinkwater are all off contract at the end of 2021 - we have to start thinking of a solution by November 1 or they will all be gone. There will be others off contract at that time as well Flanagan, Williams, Dearden, Johnson, Fogarty etc.

However if we are not in there on November 1 - forget it.

Know what you are saying and I get it but you didn’t answer my question what path do we take.A lot of the names you have put forward are good maybe but not proven long term

What are we talking here 30 year old play maker like Green, Pearce or Johnson.

I'm not - I'm talking a good play maker that has quite a few years left, Burton, Clifford, Dearden, Fogarty etc. They all have more than potential.

I like all those, especially Burton. But I fear we make the same mistake as we have with Moses and Brooks over the years. No older Mentor just to show them patience and building pressure. Brooks isn't up to that role. Burton I think would be a huge buy. I have some contacts around the lower grades at Penrith and they really rate him. Good enough for me....... but same issue. Need an older head...

Fogarty is a very good half and goal kicker.

Just re-signed with titans

That's why we have to be knocking on the door on November 1.

Soon as it hits midnight November 1st we gotta start ringing players. The sooner the better

I'll tip you..no Club waits to that stupid date..

Can’t officially offer them anything until then. Until that date everything is just talk


Ryan Matherson says hello.

Again, he couldn’t OFFICIALLY sign anything until he was released. Not saying we shouldn’t talk to players before November but as soon as we can we need to offer guys that we want contracts.


Same as Madge having dinner with Zac Lomax last year.

I remember that lol. I was so certain we got him, what a player he’s become this year for dragons. We would’ve been a whole lot better with him there instead of Joey

Brimson has looked great this season as well.

Hartigan has been our best recruit lately.

And the good Clubs have all the talking done well before official offers are made..

Are we one of the good clubs?

Good at being bad
 
**Mole Warning**

Manly are close to signing Wests Tigers utility Luke Garner to replace departing forwards Joel Thompson and Addin Fonua-Blake for next season.

Garner, aged 25, has been a consistent performer for the Tigers this season, playing 16 top grade games.

The Dubbo-born second-rower or centre has another two years on his deal at Concord but coach Michael Maguire is believed to be prepared to release him as he sets about rebuilding the Tigers' roster.

We need a 29yo number 6 that is known to be an very unflash organiser.

I can't stand Chad Townsend or his hair, but that type is exactly what we need at number 6. Not a 7. Someone who is VERY process driven, unflash, robotic.

Doesn't mean I want Chad Townsend, just that type. Ungifted, but relies on repetition of process.

That's literally Brooks, except he's 25 not 29 and not an organiser. It really is the last thing we or needs for that matter.
 
I like garner as a player
Although I think Blore looks to have even more potential
Blore and Lucy second rows
Lock McIntyre

Luke will be busy if he is replacing both Thompson and AFB.

Don't know why but this really doesn't bother me if he leaves.. It will free up a spot and some cash. I trust Madge as he will not release unless he has a plan.
