Fonua Blake appreciation thread

How good is this guy going. Major impact off the bench. We don't loose much when he comes on for Taupau. Ran for 290m in the last two games.

Won't get picked for origin but i'd consider him if i was picking the team. Makes Merrin look like fairy.

Please sign him up long term!

Definitely a star in the making. His post contact metres are awesome.

 

[Tragic Eagle]

He's a keeper for sure.

 

[Chip and Chase]

And he has a neck tattoo. Every serious forward pack needs a prop with a neck tattoo.

Very solid player, a definite future star. Should push for a starting spot soon in my opinion in order to become a star forward

 

[manlyfan76]

Yes he must keep his spot when Darcey comes back into the side.
He is going great guns.

Pretty sure he is a Kiwi. Toured with them last year. You can stop thinking about him in origin.

 

[Lord Eagleton]

Quality forward this fella. He only adds to the team dynamic when he is there. Hard to bring down in tackles, not too many errors in his game. I hope he has bought into the Manly culture since being there and is an Eagle for many years to come

So definitely in contention for a Qld spot then...

 

[Andrew..]

We have a few up and comers who certainly look like keepers.
It's funny because I started the season worrying about whether the younger guys were going to be good enough and now I find myself worrying about losing them to other clubs.
There's no rest for us supporters !

Born and raised in NSW my friend. But no doubt can play for NSW, QLD, City, Country, NZ, Aus, Tonga, England and maybe Ireland. Hmm. How does that work?

Great player,but has to play for Kiwis,City tried to select him last year and couldn't because he played recently for junior Kiwis.Should be in consideration for this years test side but who knows,they are not short of forwards to choose from.....

 

[Fluffy]

Adds great impact off the bench but is far from a starter yet as shown a few weeks ago

If Semi can play for Australia then AFB shouldn't have any problems.
