Manly Sea Eagles
Three spots left on the Beaches with Josh Schuster upgraded into the senior squad at one end of the spectrum and veteran half Kieran Foran returning at the other.


Representative front-rower Addin Fonua-Blake's release has eased salary cap pressure at the Sea Eagles, with Taniela Paseka's extension following soon after.

Unsigned
Brendan Elliot, Albert Hopoate, Danny Levi, Luke Metcalf, Tony Williams
 
The above list names 27 players contracted including Titmus, Burbo, and Koula ... whether they will be top 30 as suggested or development I don't know ... interestingly no mention of Fainu Junior ...

So ... I think we still have some signings to come ...
 
And ... if in that contracted 27 players .. we have replaced Thommo, Waddell and AFB (approx $1.35 million) ... with 3 players, Titmuss, Burbo and Koula ... yet to even play reggies .. (approx value $4ook) ...

We must must must have some cash to spend ... even with upgrades ... surely ..
 
When they can apparently.
I am not expecting too much more to be honest. Maybe (and a big maybe) Saab and Garner. I cannot see a big name signing and in light of Cordner's concussion woes the second rower that was rumoured to be in our sights may now be locked down. We do have some good youth coming through and this has to be part of our strategy moving forward although patience is required. However in say 12 - 24 months time we may see names such as Ben Turbo, Koula, S Fainu, Titmuss, Weekes, Tuitavake, Fotu, Mappa, De Bartloi, Humphreys in or around FG. Very good junior crew but unfortunately patience will be required.

Looks like they are in the 30 man squad, I haven’t seen the development players list for next season, however S.Fainu, Jade Andersen and Saddler were all signed for 2021 as development players on the last list I seen in August.
