"We had agreed to a new contract before I did my knee, so I’m very grateful for the club to honour that,” Schoupp said.

Ah fair enough

Ah fair enough

He probably isn't huge dollar anyway, but not cheaper due to injury. Top 30 spot hurts, if he won't play till after June 30. He could be 2nd tier and do that.

And that’s one way to reinvigorate the reputation of our club, in the eyes of respective playing recruits from elsewhere.

For someone so tall, I was hoping he'd become our equivalent of Daniel tupou... alas, I was mistaken. Maybe Fogartys kicks will be closer to the in goal but Saab still has to catch the ball 🤔

it’s a shame that he has hands like feet because he could be a great aerial weapon close to the try line. Oh, and he is useless in defense!

Didn't he do it on our 2nd last match. So if he's not playing till early July say, that would equate to about 9 and a half months . Could come back a month earlier maybe, early June Hopefully 🤔

We should sent him to the swans over the offseason a few days a week

I think Schoupp is a pretty good player. Was it that game against Souths last year (where the coach ridiculously went into the game without a halfback) that he debuted for Manly in FG?

He is a good hard runner. Reminds me a bit of Brad Parker, the likes of whom we could do with again.

Can play backrow and centre so wouldn’t be a bad bench option. Would put Burbo under pressure
