JACK G (has also re-signed!)

[globaleagle]

I'm guessing you haven't looked at the prices up there recently

Only on the flood affected southside, I mean who could afford to live over the bridge?!?!?!

 

[HappilyManly]

Go Jackie

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Great news, the gang is slowly but surely realising they have a HUGE opportunity ahead if they stay an Eagle.

 

[niccipops]

Great.
I love his energy.

 

[wombatgc]

I betcha he’d be the sorta bloke at training when they’re doing boxing sparring sessions would jump at the chance to go up against AFB. (He got that little bit of " unhinged " look in his eyes.)

 

[HappilyManly]

Great.
I love his energy.

Wolfie grade sort

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

Even though his hands scare me and remind me of a young Watmough, I love watching him play and the way he goes about his work

Thinks that’s what I like about this current side, there are unheralded sort of guys that I’m enjoying watching, Suli probably near the top of that list and Keppie won me over running onto the park the other night

 

[niccipops]

Wolfie grade sort

Yeah. He plays like a wild man.
I think Des really gets the best out of Jack.
He's been playing like he has something to prove and he's proving it.

Jackie's probably our most creative forward.
The fact that he has filled in even at centre shows his footy repertoire

Chez and Jackie are building a great understanding and it will flourish if he could shake his injuries

Do we push Sirro somewhere else? jack G. Waddell Thompson. I know how many powerhouses are coming through from a Polynesian background but they’re rarely ready to read/hold up an edge until later in their career without a gun six beside them. Thompson’s re-signed and he’s been the better value than Sironen. Are supporters over exaggerating Curtis’s impact because he strung some games together for the first time as a Manly player? Do you miss out here n Schuster (who is honest to god the most physically and skilfully gifted player I have ever seen) - I’ve not seen him live so there is that caveat but I’ve watched the game for a long time I’ve seen the hilight packages of quite a few since you tube. This kid is the next level in the evolution of footy players.

Can't wait to see this Schuster kid play. How far off first grade is he?

Few years unless injuries accelerate his promotion.

Mole is next to shine if he gets his injuries done with

Sirro just extended for another 2 years so he has some fans in the retention team - but then again Api extended at the same time and he has been moved on. I'd have Siro ahead of Jetski on form this year, but maybe he steps up for Thommo in 12 months time ??

Chez is brilliant whenever a forward accompanies him to the defensive line. Watching Siro run onto a DCE pearler at close range to score has been my favourite play this season. Jack G and Paseka have also scored the exact same try by backing DCE up when he runs to the line.

Even Suli at centre scored the same sort of try last week but with a slightly longer pass than what Chez would normally throw

Nothing better to watch as it combines skill and power in one play

It reminds me of the many Cliffy and Beaver try combos

Cliffy hardly ran but when he spotted the space Beaver came through close to his shoulder at full pace

 

[nightster]

what a gift, a second rower with 'Hands of Gifty'

I believe that Jackie will be a bench player whilst Sirro and Thommo are healthy.

His ability to come on as a back or a speedy forward after the 'softening up' period makes it ideal.
Plus it would save his body as he is rather injury prone

 

[nightster]

He used to play for the Mullumbimby Giants and the town has many Parra supporters mostly because of their club colours ... I was talking to a few stalwarts who are now supporting Manly because of 'Gozzy'... as he is called up here.

 

[Top End Eagle]

Gozzy it is! Although JetSki sounds cooler. It’s a bit like how Noel Cleal went from Blossom to Crusher.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Gosi is a terrific bench player ( when the others are fully fit), his ability to play in the forwards and the centres is priceless!!
