Following the great tradition of playing centres on wing in FG so every fool can bag the **** out of their defence.
Good luck to the kid.
He is a ranga from memory, Is this the first time we have had 2 in the same team?

Tough call up against the big warrior wingers. But all the best young fella. Believe in yourself, you can do this.
Fatty and Glen Bourne c.1989?

Panthers were clever enough to lock up Cleary to a new contract days before he made his grade debut. If Parker is highly sort after by NRL clubs I wonder if we have done the same?
Sadly we are not that smart!!

This explains the release of T Red. Otherwise we would have surely been over the rangary cap.

Did both Dan Harrison and Tom Symonds take the field together during the last couple of games in 2014?
One good thing about this season is the chance for these young blokes, Liam knight and Brad Parker.
Good luck to Brad.
Good luck to Brad.

I think only for the semi final against The Bulldogs.
Parker will be the 13th player to debut for Manly this season. Let's hope it's a lucky number for him. He is player number 586 overall. Welcome aboard Brad.
I have heard that they have wanted to bring him into the team but an issue with 2nd tier upgrade. Obviously only allowed due to injuries & suspension. If you were shown this backline a year ago it what have been a "what the" moment. Good luck Brad

The kid is tall too. 193cm (6'3") and 90kg. Definitely needs to go on the "See-it, Eat-it" diet. Could be a good player. Will be nice to have a tall and lengthy winger!

BRAD Parker will make his NRL debut for the Sea Eagles on Saturday against the Warriors – a feat which does not surprise Antony Charles.
The schoolteacher at St Paul’s Catholic College Manly was Parker’s first XV rugby union coach – and said he always thought the now 19-year-old was destined to play at the highest level.

So what do people think about Brad's future beyond this weekend ? Is he a one game wonder for this season or will he hold a spot till The Phantom comes back from his broken hand. Now that Snake is out for the year TT is a lock at 1. Williame will return from suspension next week so he goes back to centre I assume. If Parcell is back then does Killer go back to centre and Api plays 6 ?

Horhay
Hex
Killer
Wright
Api

or do we keep Jamie at 6 and put Api on bench (or at 9 obviously if Parcell isn't back) and run with Hex and Wright in the centres...meaning Parker holds a wing spot.
