We just got to hope that the Panfers dont try and get him back now they can see what promise he has. We need to wrap him up quickly

I think he was really grateful for the opportunity that Manly gave him and he appears to be a loyal bloke. Where would you rather live on the beaches or the foot of the mountains, who would you rather be coached by Dessy or Ivan. Cased closed he won’t be going anywhere and I would say we would be looking to upgrade him.
Very active on Twitter and is loving his time at the Sea Eagles.
I think he’s a keeper.

He is a must keep!
Watching the replay of Sunday's game last night...(again)...and i kept thinking how much it looked like we had two Jake Turbos out there! Two players with that drive, energy level and effectiveness is going to be freakin' awesome! He has got it all. What a backrow we will have if he moves out wider...but even if Des keeps him in the middle it is a great combo.

That part where Corey looks right, counts the D, calls to Nase to offload and runs to the left with his arm free to toss the ball to Jakey who then flicks it to Croker for his 2nd try was a Fiz like play

We brought back Geoff Toovey!
NRL app has Corey running for 150 metres with 58 post contact metres and 33 tackles in the Dogs game. What an effort from the bench. His debut season is looking a lot like Jake Trbojevic’s first full season in the top grade, which was sensational
I think we can thank carty for this one given his dad was great mates with him. Buy of the year. Sensational. One would hope they are looking at extending ASAP.

Have an inkling he will be shifted to starting second row, upgraded and thommo will head to super league.
The more I see of the ‘real Thommo’ this season, the less I want him to go! The guy is turning into a sort of forward leader to the young guys just like BK did...

Really interesting background story on Waddell a month ago when he was a nobody to most fans. I think if it was written now it would get a lot more clicks!

The good thing is that he is very skillful as well and can be flashy
It is so sad that this side of him didn't come to the fore under Barrett's coaching. Such a waste.

The Barrett years...
It was so obvious then, and is even more obvious now.
Parker, Jorge, Thommo, Sirro, everyone is just better under Des.
