Curtis Sironen & Dean Whare to Manly??

[Ryan]

Whare would be a great pick up. You'd expect him to be cheap, and he started at manly. Very fast and still a great player.

Started at Dragons mate I thought.

 

[Holmsey]

Started at Dragons mate I thought.

Debuted at manly.

 

[Mango]

Yeah I must have, my bad. No manly coach should be allowed to be judged since the appointment of sharp. No coach can compare to how bad he was

Debuted at manly.

3 try's on debut in 2010 if I remember correctly

 

[Snake]

I've watched plenty of Whare and the upside to buying him is that athleticism was only one part of his game...he is a very smart footballer and a genuine centre with great anticipation and instincts.

As much as I don't like Sterlo, I remember him calling Whare the best centre in the game two years ago. Yes he has had injuries and maybe they will hamper his athleticism in the early stages of a comeback, but he is very good at setting up a winger with perfect lines and timely passes...we could do worse.

We have and they are currently at the club

 

[Holmsey]

As long as Wright, Willaime, Brown are not our starting centres I'm happy. Beale or Whare over them 3 everyday.

 

[Fluffy]

He had 2 1/2 full seasons over the past 4. The bloke did an ACL this year. I hardly think that is injury prone.

I would love to contact the boss of half the bloke's on here who like to bag "injury prone" players and get your work records. It must be difficult being so perfect.

Oh and if I could give myself a dummy spit right now I would because that is exactly what this is. The amount of negativity on this forum is beyond a joke.

I have been sick and unable to attend work 4 days in my career, once at my current employer.

Whare the best centre in the game 2 years ago ????
I never heard Sterlo say that .
2014 Rep centres ...... Jennings Inglis Morris Hodges .
Jamie Lyon was firing in all cylinders back then as well .
No way Whare was ever up with the best centres in the game .
Your fetish for Whare has got the better of you feathered friend 🙂

To be fair Whare did play for NZ in 2014 mate. In the Test and the Four Nations.

Yes he did play in the 2014 tests and so did Beale and our 2016 NSW cup player Issac John .
Whare and Beale are good players but they are in the elite class.

Have to disagree with you on that one bozo.

Whare was playing incredibly well in that series and was definitely world class and in the top centers in the game. His defense was great. Contained inglis and was always dangerous with the ball. Nz won the series beating australia twice

I think he can come back from his injury no doubt. I think he is a gun. Matai like defense, speed to burn, can set up a winger, good under the high ball, great finisher.

 

[bones]

This rumour is OK to believe because its about decent players coming. Rumours about players leaving are bad and a kitten dies every time one is posted.

That's the great thing about this forum maroon and white friend is that we all have different views . The NZ side that beat Australia had Beale and Whare in the centres , they had our NSW cup player Issac Johns and 5/8 and Ben (who) Henry at hooker but they still beat a very disappointing Australian side . Whare Beale Johns and Henry are not world class imo but a good team that plays well together can beat a team of champions when they don't play well as a team . 9 times out of 10 Inglis will sht over Whare .

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

You would, I would not.

 

[Holmsey]

You would, I would not.

Back to back injuries would drop his price.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

Yes a bit reduced but not cheap. However if we want quality we have to pay for it.

 

[double hoops]

Beale a bit cheaper to squeeze in other signings?

Nz had a gun side. Way better than australia. Their forwards mauled australia. Foran was 5/8 mate. centers were SKD and Whare.

Did you say he has Matai like defense ?
No comparison mate !!!
