Clayton Faulalo

[R3]

He's our Daine Laurie.

But he could be our Fletcher Sharpe if we give hime a run in the halves. Clayton has the footy skills to become a modern utility

edit for a dad joke: I hope we can 'mould Clay' into a bench utility

I agree he could be a great 14

 

[XV-1]

Re-signed for 2026 and 27.
Good luck to him.
Great in attack, not so good in D. Let's hope with a new coach he continues to improve.

He’s the winger you have when you’re not having a winger.

I'm really happy for him and our club, good5+kg on him b perfect. Really good player, good luck champ, don't let yourself and the families down.

I really like Clayton , not a superstar but a very dependable backup .

Maybe a bit on the unlikely side still but continue to think that Talau could have the attributes to be moulded into a competitive 13
Being a bit injury prone for a good part of this season probably does not help [ seems to be mainly hammy related for some reason ] but again when his style of play is taken into account , good on his feet and line breaking ability including in traffic , aggressive defender when he wishes , sure that he could develop a sufficient mid field passing - link role
just that the outside back opportunities may continue to be a bit limited for him and still no really ideal option at 13 with the current array of squad members who have appeared there in recent seasons

I think Clayton F has the potential to become a top first grade winger - he knows his way to the tryline & just needs a bit more first grade experience to cement a spot IMO.

I'm glad the club has re-signed him.

Agree. But first I would like to see how he goes at 5/8. Brooks is OK but has not done sufficient over the past two seasons to make him an automatic selection, although Boldy disagrees. Brooks is resilient and has not missed a match; just like DCE, who should be "rested" to give us a glimpse into our future.
Bring DCE back for the last home match, in a wheelchair, so he can complete a lap of 'honour'.
Such a pity he has tarnished his legacy.

Talau is nothing if not versatile but just recall that brief stint he had as a 6 against the Bunnies last season when D C E and Brooks were not available
Defended well but looked like not the best fit attacking wise
Still , showed that he could more then handle being a bit closer to the ruck area where the more robust type pf play is needed

Notice that Saab has apparently been down a bit this season on his previous top speed rating
No doubt , mainly injury factors responsible and did stride out well in that recent corner touchdown against the Dogs
Then last week , maybe with a bit more of his normal speed edge , could have pulled clear of Jed Stuart on the wing and really help Manly "s cause
Hope that he can be managed well in the off season and get back regularly to his prior quickest player rating

Yes I've notice and it's very disappointing, it's either he's not that fast or injured. It looked like he's jogging at 3rd gear since he's been with us, never at full pelt. Sometime I think that's all his got, because many times with the line open we all think it's all-over he always get run down easily.

If he's injured he shouldn't b in the team, speed and catching bombs is what he's there for and he can't do both. He should take some time out and get better at both because that's all his got going for him It's costing us a lot of try. When I ever I saw Faulalo played, he's always busy running around like a headless chook remind me of Lehi. Both of them will b perfect if they put an extra 5-10kg of muscle on them, don't get me wrong I'm a Saab fan also.
