If you could add one player to our roster . . .

Some of these players aren’t ones we need but I enjoy watching them.. probably a different thread for that but oh well
Tyran wishart (so versatile and talented)
Sua faalogo or Keano kini (on the smaller side but the speed and footwork is amazing)
Fletcher sharpe (fast, versatile)
Reuben cotter/ Isaah yeo (no funny business, just effort and hard running)
Briton Nikora/ Ellie katoa/ Samuela fainu (if his brother didn’t go to church, we probably would of had him)
Sam walker ( Love his awareness of the game and off the cuff footy style)
Harry Grant/ Api
That’s the ones I can think off the top of my head but I know there’s players I’m missing.
 
Talakai. I just love watching him play. That left Edge. Or out wider if needed. Hes just the perfect package of wrecking ball wearing a footy jersey. Now if we are adding him along side Brownie and Lodge. We won't lack attitude. He's mobile. He's enough of a worker. He's a real point of difference to all our other forwards. We have others with their speed, ball playing and finesse.

and the tiny fullback from the 'Fins, Trey Fuller.
Unfortunately he ruptured his ACL in a Queensland Cup match last weekend and is out for half of next season.
 
... to turn it into an authentic premiership contender, who would it be?
I reckon just one of the following forwards is all it would take:
Harry Grant, Tino, Kikau, Murray, Angus Crichton, Yeo, Collins, Carrigan, Haas. . .
I'd go for Grant, just ahead of Tino. Some people forget how damaging Tino was because he missed almost the entire 2024 season with injury.
I think our backs are good enough. It would be a waste having to play Cleary or Ponga in the Blacktown Workers team!
Anyway, who'd be your one dream recruit?
Tino's A Cat

I'd throw the book at the most dynamic young hooker running around, either here or England.
 
It has to be out of Grant and Cleary.

No disrespect to Froggy but he's the longest standing stop gap measure I've ever seen.
 
Loving this fairy tale thread.

But honestly when was the last time Manly poached a CURRENT rep level player (ie origin o kiwi international) in their prime from another club?

Roosters sign 1 or 2 every other season.
 
Bradman Best would look good in Maroon. Grant I suppose is probably the best hooker but would setttle for Api. Need a forward with mongrel. Fifita or Haas.
