I'll be interested to see how a halfback will be developed at Manly.
If you look at Peter Wallace he was a borderline First Grader at Penrith then linked up with the Broncos and developed into a top line halfback under Wayne Bennett (great skills coach)/Ivan Henjak (former halfback)/Kevin Walters and allan Langer (QLD and Australian halves).
I guess we have Hasler and Toovey. Both weren't overly creative as halves in their hay day.
I'll be keen to see if we can really develop this bloke into a top shelf half.
Understudy to Ox for a year will help and there is allways Joey (half for hire) Johns
I wonder how much Crushers knowledge of the Parra setup has helped in getting these guys.

You raise a very interesting point about Crusher and i agree he worked for them so he should know something.
