the only way i would be keeping him is on the wing, he is not a centers ass hole
Give it up mate! You don’t think much of him, I do…..as do many commentators & ex players who I dare say know a hell of a lot more about talent than you do. Any club in the top 8 would have him in an instant.What aggro are you talking about??
But here is something for you.....if Koula played for any of the current top 8 sides, he wouldn't be a centre and wouldn't be a fullback.
That some class him as our best centre tells the problems we have.
Absolutely disagree with that.What aggro are you talking about??

Why would Turbo retire?Possibly unpopular but what if Turbo retires end of 26. You then have Hoppa or Koula at fullback. Garrick is your next in for me. That’s 3 of your back 5 with Saab/Talua/Willet/Clayton options for the other 2 spots
So it’s the coaches fault that there’s a new club incoming making huge offers to get good players to kick the franchise off !!!Gut Wrenching if he leaves... Seidudded again
Ever since I've joined this forum, you've absolutely despised Garrick, and I have no idea why. Like it isn't even about his position. You just think he's unimaginably terrible.End of 2026 can’t come quick enough!
on the cards Manly have a bad habit of kneejerk reactions that lead to stupid offersLet him go he is a good winger but that's it. The last thing we need to do is over pay him.
Think the issue here is about value. His worth or cost. yes, been great player for the club, goal kicker. That try he scored from our in-goal area after getting a spray from DCE a year ago or so - brilliant. The chase the other day - showed great heart. BUT, his contract was about his ability to grow tries from 4 to 6 points. Doesn't our new half back become a suitable replacement option? This affects his $ value.Let him go he is a good winger but that's it. The last thing we need to do is over pay him.
CRPSI….Can’t Really Provide Sensible Info.Ever since I've joined this forum, you've absolutely despised Garrick, and I have no idea why. Like it isn't even about his position. You just think he's unimaginably terrible.
Did he knock up your daughter or something? Personally, I'd be congratulating my daughter...
Maybe you should go instead?Let him go he is a good winger but that's it. The last thing we need to do is over pay him.
Ummm Koula, Garrick, Lehi, Simpkin, TKO have been pretty consistent all year just to name a few. All 3 Trbos have underperformed yet they seem to be the darlings of some in here.Think the issue here is about value. His worth or cost. yes, been great player for the club, goal kicker.

Football is a business, it has a time limit, don't blame one little bit to test the market. I agree we don't need to pay overs and remain in the player roster we have. We need to get new and better players to challenge the competition.
Having said that this year has been so disappointing because we have quality players but none of them have been consistent. If they played as a team week in week out we would be in the top 4. What is the point of playing the big teams, play well, then loose to the bottom 4 teams. Seriously that's about attitude.
Think your referring to the season performance. Mate it's a team sport; they need to play as a team. Yes, I agree all of those players in individual games put in individual performances. but as a team, generally we sucked! the players did not match enthusiasm of other players.Ummm Koula, Garrick, Lehi, Simpkin, TKO have been pretty consistent all year just to name a few.
