Green signs with Manly

[Turbo]

Neither here nor there on this one, he has experience and will prove solid foil for DCE, in this day and age its very tough to have two superstar halves

He be our certain 5/8 starter next year the hopefully Wright and Hyne are heaping pressure on him in 2018

Yeah he can play 5/8 in 2017 and 18 and help mentor Hynes, Wright and Cust until one is ready to play FG.

 

[The Who]

He's been coached by the best. and played with some of the best, so I think Green is a sensible signing. He may not be a star at Melbourne, but neither was Widdop. At least he'll know what it takes to win and is coming from a very professional culture.
He's a much better investment - at half the price - than that dropkick Corey Norman.

 

[tookey]

Just cause you say it doesn't make it true

More like his manager was telling everyone that to up his price tag

We could sign Nu Brown and be all colourful.

Green is the new brown?

 

[Harvies elbow]

Agree with that but plenty of top first graders yet we "settle" with Blake Green this is a Northern Eagles signing.

Northern eagles signing.... I like that.
That one of yours??

 

[BirdMan4ever]

Green is a no frills 5/8 and a decent player under Bellamy
Green will be a NSW cup candidate under TB.

 

[BirdMan4ever]

DALAI - provides players excellent remuneration for early retirement
TB - provides players a one way ticket to NSW cup and out of form training programs.
Where would you prefer to go?

 

[Sheikheagle]

Blake Green or Cleaver Greene?

Great show

I'd up and extend Tom and Jakes contract before wasting 350k on a nothing

So we'll have Jake play 5/8 next year while paying him $1,500,000..? Ok cool.

You realise we have a heap of guys coming off contract and we still need to field a side next year, not to mention we have a need for a 5/8?

Considering what Keary went for, 350PA for two years is good business.

Nico, Tom - make sure you put "Blacktown" into your GPS when you head to training...

Yes green is a solid buy and came well priced we need to save some money for Jake T and Tom T aswell as our other young guns like AFB, Knight, Buhrer, Meehan, Parker ect.

Considering all our expensive guys are coming off their deals over the next two seasons, there will be plenty of coin around to do that.

If people thought Tooves signed him would there be any grumbling?

 

[Jerry1]

The same people who hail this as a great signing told us Myles was what we needed and Brown (lewis) was a great pick up.

Much to my shame I thought that Myles would be good for us...

 

[niccipops]

This guy?

 

[Snake]

I have mixed feelings about this (if it's true). In one respect, he is the definition of average and he'll be 30 in September this year. On the other hand, he is a mistake free half with a competent kicking and running game who will not let us down.

Maybe this signing doesn't need to have a black and white appraisal...it's not good and it's not bad, much like the player himself...it's simply OK.

 

[Mango]

$350k for a fresh premiership winning half! Bargain.....

 

[Harvies elbow]

For the price Green's a reasonable purchase. With retirements we'll have a fair bit to spend I'd like to see them put it to upgrading Jake and Tom and any other young guns but looking at the results of the lowers maybe we don't have many.
So buy someone else's after we look after our own.

 

[JenEagle]

I guess Foran won't be coming back
