I'm hoping the second one is correct but I would bet neither are.

Rd 22 Injury Update
Manly Warringah Sea Eagles prop Taniela Paseka will not require surgery on a syndesmosis injury suffered against the Melbourne Storm last Saturday night.www.seaeagles.com.au
Yep. We are missing Keppie, Sippers, Tent, Lance, Davey and Tenterfield -- six props/ players who could fill-in as a prop. I wonder if we could secure one at a prop-up store?No mention of Zac Saddler in any recent injury reports, yet he's supposed to be back in round 22. We could sure use him right now...
Can Suli be turned into a prop/backrower for 2022? Is this worth the Manly coaching staffs time and attention over the pre-season? He has size, speed, power. Does he have the heart, guts and motor to play prop? Or should we just move him on for whatever we can get for him?Yep.

You mightn’t find one at the prop store, but it seems you can just go and borrow one on loan apparentlyYep. We are missing Keppie, Sippers, Tent, Lance, Davey and Tenterfield -- six props/ players who could fill-in as a prop. I wonder if we could secure one at a prop-up store?
We owe it to Suli and ourselves to test him out as a forward. It's something we've been saying for several seasons.Can Suli be turned into a prop/backrower for 2022?

Ruben Wiki type you reckon?Can Suli be turned into a prop/backrower for 2022? Is this worth the Manly coaching staffs time and attention over the pre-season? He has size, speed, power.

Yes we have been saying this for several seasons. It would be great to see it actually happen though. Considering our current prop situation, is it something that needs to happen right now?We owe it to Suli and ourselves to test him out as a forward.

Yes @Ryan it's a good comparison. Ruben Wiki was a good centre that became an outstanding international prop. If we could turn Suli from an average club centre into a good NRL bench prop in 2022, it would be a worthwhile result.Centre turned world class prop:
Your probably right but it hasn't been tried as yet. Coming into the finals with an extreme shortage of props, could well be a good time to give it a go. Suli is the same height and weight as Aloiai for example, gets good post contact metres (on most of his runs), and has been effective at taking 1st/2nd hit ups previously from his centre position. We are paying the guy 500K. Let's not die wondering about this, before he is moved on. Suli just isn't suited to playing centre/wing in the structure that Des has us utilising this season.Would think that prop would be too much of a transition for Suli , maybe 2 nd row in stints if not his natural centre - wing accustomed positions .
