Corey Waddell

[king2213]

Welcome to Manly young man

This guy is an animal and still very young

Tough no nonsense character with a try assist under his belt

Nice offload under the legs

Really impressed with his recruitment to the club

 

[Simonmyers11]

Been very impressed with him! Excellent off season recruitment

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Great buy a long term keeper!

 

[Lyonstomenzies]

Very impressed and is someone whom I think we were missing last year. All our forwards played the same with big bodies and very little lateral movement. He looks the goods and someone we should hang on to.

 

[manlyfan76]

Is he a smaller prop or a back rower?
Either way you have to like the cut of his jib.

 

[robbiea]

He is killing it !
Loving his play so far .Runs hard ,hits hard,gives his all.Couldnt ask for more...

 

[Woodsie]

He put his hand up last night and said pick me .....

Paseka, Perrett, and others would be well advised to do the same ....

But after all this time unlikely to do so.

I’m of the view that Des will be looking to discard all three at years end.

All 3 ,you meaning Tanginoa or Waddell ?
Surely you don't mean Waddell ,If anyone is putting their hand up for a contract ,he has.

I agree wholeheartedly ... he is great support for Jake and Api in defence and supportive & creative in attack ... has ticker

A great signing, build clubs around players like him and Jake T.

We don't disappear as a side anymore after 20 minutes with this guy coming on for Marty or AFB. So far he has had good hands too, which makes such a difference compared to a few of our error prone reserves in recent history.

No Tangles , Perrett and to be honest I’m not convinced on Sipley either!!

 

[Briza]

Good young player, with a full season under his belt will be a great replacement for thommo in 2020.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Sipley looks like he has potential along with Boyle.

 

[mave]

Sipley is a keeper, imo

 

[The better Robbo]

Waddell is definitely a keeper.
Agree paseka and perrett will be offloaded at years end. Tangainoa is worth keeping in my opinion. As for sipley, I think des likes the shane Rodney, mark Bryant type so he might not fit the style des wants. Another couple of waddells would do very nicely.
I also believe Boyle will prove a great signing once he gets fit.

 

[Pepi]

I like Waddell, he is a real competitor but not sure what his role will be moving forward.
Is he a middle forward ie lock? Or out on an edge?
He has replaced our props for most part this year.

 

[eagerbeaver]

Yeah he'd be our buy/rookie of the year at this rate.
Admittedly from what I had read about him over the offseason I pictured him more of a wide running second rower.
He's doing well playing mostly in the middle, but my fear is over the course of a season he's gonna get bashed up too much (not as big as most modern day front rowers) so we need to protect him a bit..
