Yeah heard that as well , but a lot of hookers off contract this season

Is Blayke the better of the 2 ??

By all reports yes he is, and his brother is still on contract, perfect time to strike
 
"On the other forum, a poster intimated the WTs may have signed a young Manly forward named Josh Schuster. I can’t verify the truth but I do know Schuster is a highly regarded second row forward. With Lambkin and Warwick at our Club, it makes sense."

This comment about Josh Schuster is from the Manly Forum back in Novembr 2018

He is arguably the best junior talent at Manly but 2020….likely train with the top squad next off season
 
Some more comments made in 2017 on Josh Schuster;

"Josh Schuster already has all the makings of a superstar, even though he still qualified for the NSW Under-16s age group in 2017.

While there are a few years left to wait, Manly fans should be excited about the big and skillful back-rower who is developing in their system as well as the NSW Pathways Program.

He had three touches in the lead-up to an amazing try in the NSW Under-16s Origin game including a freakish no-look pass to Aaron Schoupp who crossed in the corner. That game had a crazy finish where Albert Hopoate and Bradman Best combined for a length of the field try to win the game in the dying moments.

Brydens Lawyers NSW Blues coach Brad Fittler coached Schuster when he represented the NSW Under-16s in 2017, and has high hopes for what the future holds.

“He’s the standout, he’s got all of the skills, the size, and it will be interesting how he handles the occasion,” Fittler said prior to the game.

“He’s areal nice kid, a good team bloke, and they all like having him in the team, I’m keen to watch him.”

We certainly have a good pathway for him as Lawrence might be looking at retiring close to the point that he'll be ready.

Good to see we are looking at other hooking options. Maybe Liddle’s stock is dropping. Sharks have big wraps on Brailey though, so that could be a little optimistic.

I have a feeling Ava will end up back here. Musgrove will most likely be let go at some point, and Ava is out of favour at the Sharks. Plus we were reported to have been interested in him a couple weeks ago when he looked like being moved on. Something to think about

Musgrove is no longer with us.
 
Im very cold on Ava.

We need to stop being a place of odd bods and leftovers to stop over on their way out.

No to Ava
No to Alex Glenn

Yes to more players like Matterson and mybe

Absolutely. I couldn't believe the talk from some fans wanting Ava and Sue back. Both fully fledged reserve graders.
