    Do we let Taupau go?

    This sums it all up. If people can't comprehend this then there's no more to discuss.

    Do we let Taupau go?

    Rarely do teams with millions invested in multiple props win the comp.

    Do we let Taupau go?

    Because our cap is ****ed. And out of the top 5 or 6 players at our club his position is least important and where we have most depth. Put simply, we have to cull one of our top earners to actually build some decent depth in key positions and also hold onto some of our young potential...

    Do we let Taupau go?

    "Better" than utter **** still ain't that great. We need to spend money on halves and a hooker and strikepowr out wide. Simple. Marty is the odd man out.

    Pick two

    We are no chance of signing Alex Johnston, or anyone in that price range/status.

    The real problem with Manly.

    Hey I totally agree. 4 games where we can't make the 8 and can't get the spoon. No expectations. Des needs to let it rip and see what he has. Huamole, Funa, Hoppa, Schuster, etc. - it's time to throw it all out there and see who is willing to rip in for a top 17 roster spot in 2021.

    The real problem with Manly.

    It's interesting as we actually have the makings of a pretty good NRL roster, potentially top 4, with just a few personnel changes. Fainu, Turbo and a player like Foran along with a few of the rookie backs perservered with and Haumole in for Joel Thompson would instantly do wonders for our attack.

    The real problem with Manly.

    They haven't played first grade. They cannot be considered depth. It's not rocket science. Melbourne can slot in a player like that because they have probably the best coach of the last 20 years, the best hooker that's ever played the game, and a bunch of rep stars, pace, and power in key...

    The real problem with Manly.

    Until the NRL publishes player salaries like US sports we are all just playing guessing games. It's obvious our squad is fairly top heavy and we lack serious quality and depth in the backs and hooker. My original point still stands, usually culling players such as your Garricks, Parkers...

    The real problem with Manly.

    Yep this is my point. 23 players on $3.8m so where exactly does dropping all the deadweight help us? Just more deadweight will be signed.

    Des vindicated

    Definitely doesn't look ready for first grade but pretty tough matchup for your first game. It's clear the Hoppa family line has been talk the talk and secure a pay day as soon as possible. The NRL needs a draft and rookie scale contracts, like, yesterday.

    The real problem with Manly.

    All this talk of moving on crap players but unless they are on big money we aren't realistically signing anyone that's gonna make a difference. JAC is gonna get a huge deal from the bunnies or roosters because of course he is. Letting Api leave was terrible business. I hate to say it but...

    Time to GO!!!

    Can't agree with this. Fainu has basically played one season and unlikely to be around next year. DCE is toast after carrying this side on attack since Foran left. Walker and Turbo are never on the park. Jake is playing like a reserve grader not a SOO first choice forward. The other...

    Time to GO!!!

    No decent players are coming here. Releasing 10 or so fringe players will not help us free cap space for decent players as those 10 players need to be replaced. You can't learn to defend in 6 weeks.

    Game Day: Souths v Manly [Round 15, 2020]

    I totally agree, but apart from Turbo I don't see any one of our squad (not playing tonight) turning us into a top 4 contender any time soon. We need a big clean out. And cleaning out the likes of Taufua, Elliott, Garrick, Levi etc isn't going to free up any cap space to sign significant...

    Storm may give this a shake next week.

    Is this legit? Including Northern Eagles?

    Game Day: Souths v Manly [Round 15, 2020]

    What a brilliant game from Garrick. Bags a brace and 66% kicking. He'll be stoked with that.
