That prevents the fast food drive through for the long journey home.

Manly's plan to pinch rival 'wonder boy' revealed
'Premier young halfback talent in the game'

Haha don't get hung up on the 'another Tiger player' slur, Tigers produce a huge amount of top young talent, they haven't prospered in NRL mostly due to the dysfunctional Magpie/Tigers merger (and we all know how problematic club mergers can be).It's the Mole....but its a Tigers player......so I'm torn on what to believe...

Nice to hear we are looking ahead and going after the pick of the crop.
I get more hung up on the "future star" tags.
What I've heard from Tigers supporters (keep in mind I have no physical evidence for this) is that he's not much of a game manager. Pretty similar to Brooks in that he's a good runner of the ball and kicker at the halfback position, but like Brooks cannot effectively manage the attack the same way as DCE, Foran, etc can do. If we're going to have a DCE sized hole in our team, we should try our best to replace it with a DCE style halfback. I remember someone mentioned Humphreys was a good game manager and organiser, and I've heard great things about Beau Alexander, and both are in our ranks already. I don't want us to end up like the Tigers where we keep trying to turn either Brooks or Galvin into managers and it goes nowhere for either party.It's the Mole....but its a Tigers player......so I'm torn on what to believe...

Always the option of playing Brooks at half back if D C E does finish his Manly career after season 25
Really would then need of course a relatively good defensive 5 / 8 as regardless of what one thinks of D C E "s overall game as a 7 , he is an above average or quite effective defensive half .
But , any promising or very capable young half on the market now is well worth looking at and seriously considering as a future or prospective good standard half .
Thought that Latu Fainu could have been looked at as a Manly future 7 but events moved in a different course with that consideration .

he mustn't be that good yet....
no youtube video
True Al, and can see the same thing happening at the Tigers. With Latu's age he's always been the player in waiting, but the trouble with this, while waiting there's always someone playing in your preferred position who's got everything to prove and play for. Got the feeling the Tigers really wanted Sam and that Latu was part of the package deal on getting the whole Fainu clan over to the Tigpies.

Latu was already on about 300 k for season "s 22 and 23 and in different circumstances and maybe with a bit more Blacktown experience and if was really coming on , could have warranted an additional 200 k
However , was playing as a 7 at Blacktown and had a heap of injuries prior to that and no way really knowing if he could almost instantly manage to be a capable 6 at N R L level .
Siebold under a bit of pressure to get results now so of course understandable to go for a player of Brooks "s caliber and experience .
Latu would probably have to be one of the highest paid juniors and not to have played i st grade for all times however but such is life .
Sort of had hopes that Samual could have transitioned into a quite viable 13 for Manly short term and long term and again in different circumstances and with a bit of opportunity to play there even at Blacktown , may have been a possibility .
Then to match the West Tigers 500 k and still not even in the short term consideration as a permanent edge let alone 13 , hard to retain him .
Really , really hope of course that Shu can do something very worthwhile again on an edge , .
if not , losing Sam could prove to be a real bad option
