It’s been a master stroke from the coach that can’t coach to bring him off the bench. He has been great for a good 3-4 weeks now.
I hear we have not gone into the hunt for big recruitment and recently dropped off a couple of big names , on the basis those who make the calls at Manly, are very content and happy with the players currently within the Manly sysem and simply want to retain the players here now and those talented players coming through yet to be unleashed....this I take it, includes Kapow...

Never liked the idea of shopping Marty around. Offers to much and is a good example to the younger pacific islander heritage fellows, (better than the church anyway)
Just like letting Api go hit us hard unexpectedly, just because we are well stoked in the forwards now, whats to say doing the same with Kapow wouldnt come back to bite us.
Sometimes it's better to hold onto a known quantity.

I would be happy to keep Marty around for a few more years the way he is playing. The forwards this year have been very good, now with Tom back we are scoring off the back of the platform they are providing. Still have Aloiai to come back as well.

We were looking at middle and edge forwards but the way Aloiai, Tent, Quac, Sipley and Keppie have been performing to go with Shuster as an edge forward and Davey to come back who I rate, plenty of talent there. Boyle and Jetski's place are the ones in danger and Siro will have to also prove his worth for a new contract. Have some great young forwards coming through the juniors as well.

Prefer Boyle and Jetski go rather than Kapow. At full strength we can give anyone a run for their money as we are showing.

To me it seems his form has picked up since he shopped himself around and had no takers. He must have realised the grass ain't greener and should just be happy where he is. He is even celebrating in the team song with more enthusiasm than he has for years. He is definitely back to his best form and is a key re signing. Moving him to the bench has also been a master stroke! We look such a well rounded side at the moment.

Plz don't let go of Marty. The bloke is back to elite form, him being part of the substitute forward rotation has made him turn into a different beast. I love it. We need to keep him for a couple more years. He's a forward leader and also a leader to most of our islander boys in our team (slapping Suli when Suli tried grubbing Benji) which I love to see. We got some deadwood we have to let go off at the end of this year and surely that gives us the cap space to lock in Marty.
Not sure where the idea of Manly shop
I am sure Marty will have plenty of takers, just not at his current asking price.
I think he realises he on big pay next year so will put his best foot forward for Manly.
No idea what happens the year after

Marty is quite articulate and has a great work ethic. He is a good role model for the younger forwards and has put his aggression away.
He’s a great old head to have at the club and will be a mentor to the younger kids.
Let’s just hope this form lasts and we see the workhorse Marty for a few years.

I am sure he will stay for the duration of his deal, he's a good player, although theres plenty on here that will disagree, I remember reading some unhappy comments at the start of the season, I'm sure they are a bit happier these days.

If any player doesn't want to stay at the club, no matter how good they are (for example, AFB), then I'm not against them moving on. It doesn't make sense to keep people around if they don't want to buy in. So here's hoping Marty doesn't want to go and that the club wants to keep him around. If both parties want the same thing, it shouldn't be too hard a deal to work out.

Well the coin he is on at Manly for next season is not something other clubs would have wanted to pay going off his early season form so yeah I think you’re right about no takers. It’s a case of other clubs saying “Marty we’ll have you but not at that price” so it’s in his best interests to play his heart and soul out to keep his deal going forward.
