Last night there was a big function at my work. Knowing I'm a big Manly fan one of the bar staff let me know that the function was for a young man named Aden Moore(pretty sure thats what it was, spelling could be wrong), who had been signed by Manly from St George and added to the first grade side. Having never heard of him i tracked him down and asked myself and he confirmed it. I feel like i could name next years top 25 by heart so it left me quite confused. Has any one heard of a player with a name like that that has signed from St George? He was a huge Islander guy. Very nice as well.
Confused, help.

Google search came up empty. Might have name wrong
Great possibility @Cliffymagic, but the part where he signed from st george was definitely not lost in translation so i was hoping someone would be able to piece it together from that part.

Aden Moore. Addin Fonua Blake. I can see the similarity.
Had you enjoyed a few sherbets at that point, or was it just a noisy venue?

Dragons Sack Young Gun
Saints junior rep Addin Fonua-Blake sacked after police incident
St George Illawarra have sacked promising front-rower Addin Fonua-Blake for breaches in his NRL contract following allegations of assault in January.
The 19-year-old was charged with common assault after allegedly kicking his girlfriend in their Eastlakes home earlier this year.
He had since been stood down from all club activities and will be offered assistance and support from the club.
Dragons CEO Peter Doust said the club decided to terminate his contract after an investigation by the club and the NRL integrity unit.
"Addin's actions breached clauses in his contract and upon review of all information by the board of the Dragons, the decision was made that termination of his contract was the appropriate outcome," Doust said in a statement.
"This circumstance is unfortunate for both Addin and the club. Addin has been at our club for a number of years and was a player our coaching group had targeted for NRL this season." - AAP Reports
