Benji Marshall to Manly?

[Spartan Eagle]

No doubt his manager is trying to garner interest since he's no longer wanted by tigpies .. for 300k or less may be another option for us and mentor Schuster. Thoughts?

Marshall to Manly?

Benji Marshall could have played his final season at Wests Tigers, but could he be a good fit for the Manly Sea Eagles? Joel Thompson shares his thoughts

[Shoe1]

my thought is no

 

[MissKate]

I was only joking about this over dinner last night. Let’s get rid of all our young players and put a retirement team together - seriously doing my head in with all these crazy ideas

 

[Will on the hill]

Similar to Foz, loads of experience at a bargain basement price. I wouldn't mind it, although would prefer Foz.

 

[maxta]

definate no - I stop at either Cust getting trust, the youthful gun Schuster getting a shot, though backrow option can work, or Foran with a contract that is covered in relation to incentives if injured and misses 3/4 season....top preference in the right conditions is -
1 - Foran
2 - Schuster
3 - Cust
4 - Not Marshall

1. Foz
2. Schuster
3. Burton
4. Cust
5. Marshall

Is there an Over 35 age comp starting next season?

It's called Masters mate - good fun and Marshall may join Cliffy's Narrabean team who do well

I've been a big fan of Marshall's but it's a no from me. Develop Cust and Schuster.

 

[Jigzkiller]

What's with all these suggestions with Foz and Marshall coming from our own supporters? I can understand the media but how sad is it that we appear to be the new retirement centre in the nrl.

How far have we fallen as a club that people are even entertaining these players **** me we are in a bigger hole than I thought.

If our future is Marshall or Foz than we have no future and a coach who has no vision and would rather a band aid than a rebuild which we need.

 

[StuBoot]

I love Benji and as much he doesn't want to retire, one for the road with another club would be long odds surely, he's got nothing more to prove and he's good as a talking head on FOX.
He's a Tiger and deserves to be remembered as one of their greats ( his stints with RU, Saints and the Broncs should be overlooked ).

I'm a little disappointed that I couldn't get to the game this week to see him go around one last time.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[Dion Johnson]

Thompson got it correct, we have good talented youth coming through, use the future not the past.

 

[manlyfan76]

DCE is signed for two more years, prrfect for him to be one half while we develop one or two of the young guys into good halves.
IF we signed an older player they should be back only.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Yeah Nah!

 

[Lyonstomenzies]

Less injured than Foz and has never cheated Manly.... but a big NO from me.

Please get our youth playing grade otherwise they will leave.

 

[sheridanstand78]

Three years ago when Green left I would have said absolutely, Now I think time has caught up with Benji and we cannot afford to fritter cap on a guy who is about finished when we have younger options that must be given their chance!

 

[davohan123]

No
No
No
No
No

As Gus says
Stick well clear of benji

 

[Eagle thru 'n' thru]

No way to Benji. Champion player but his time has passed. No to Foran aswell while I'm at it.

 

[Hibyemama]

getting a bit long in the tooth. (no pun intended, Tigers )
