Feleti Mateo and Blake Green

[Disco]

So its fairly common knowledge that Manly are after Mateo, but rumours suggest we are also chasing young Parra 5/8 Blake Green

Seems strange considering our halves depth, but he is a top young talent.

If its true it must mean Burns or Monas wont be with us next year

 

[fLIP]

Burns most likely. Monas still has a year on his contract.

 

[fLIP]

However I doubt we'd buy him for 1st grade straight up so I doubt anyone will be leaving.

 

[Disco]

Green will sign somewhere to play firsts, he wont leave parra to play reserves

As for Mona's being contracted next year...................since when do contracts get in the way of things.

Maybe Manly are looking to the future

That's too much into the future, disco.

Listening to Bozo on 2GB a couple of weeks ago he said Mnaly had tried to Green last year but he decided to remain at Parra. Maybe it is old news

 

[PJ]

Burns most likely. Monas still has a year on his contract.

I thought I read somewhere that Burns has/ was about to resign with a contract bumped up to $180,000 per year.

Not really 09/10

Could be, im just bringing up what i read on another site

 

[fLIP]

Pure speculation on my part PJ. I hope he re-signs but if we can get a better quality 5/8th than I say go for it.

 

[Disco]

i think Burns will become an integral member of the squad..........whether it be at 5/8 or not, we should keep him

Yeah I read the same thing in the Herald not long ago.

 

[PEPSI]

burns could develop into a "Dunley" style bench player. just way better.

 

[Stuey Davis Socks]

Green won't have to wait long at Parra to get Finch's jumper anyway.

 

[Andrew..]

Burns is keen to stay despite a couple of offers from north of the border.

 

[Chip and Chase]

Seeing all this current talk about Blake Green signing, thought it was interesting to see this thread in the archives. Let's hope he works out better than our long wait to get Mateo here did.

Looks like Bozo rated the guy 10 years ago, so still holding a candle for him obviously.

I'm a wee bit confused here. Are there two Blake Greens playing Rugby League at the moment. My understanding was that Manly have bought Blake Green, Melbourne's five eighth for 2017-18 and he will be 30 years old when he starts playing for us. Is there are a kid called Blake Green playing in the lower grades at Parra. Melbourne's Blake Green originally played for Parra.

This is a really old thread (2007) that's been bumped, in light of the recent signing. Same Blake Green, he's all growed up now lol

 

[Moondog]

It's our new aged signing policy in action. Here are some more prospective team signings on a recent training run
