Jamie Humphreys

Wished he was still around SAD SAD SAD day for Manly, $600k instead of whatever JH is getting

I understood us cutting him loose for DCE, but now that’s all changed. The way he played against the Knights that day was pretty impressive. He just played a role and was composed and linked really well with the backline. I don’t think he is a future star but he looks like being a quality 7 at a decent price with a strong kicking game. He would have been perfect in hindsight.

Cheaper than JFOGorty also he's a big boy and can play lock and hooker

 

[Eagledare2dream]

Nuggety similar to A Watmough, with ball skills

 

[Eagledare2dream]

And can fill in the half if Large or Walsh is injured

Not to mention a longer career in front of him and superior speed. I will say, Fogerty has him in terms of a kicking game; it's one of the very best in the competition. If you can consistently land those yardage kicks within 5 metres of the opposition try line, you control field position and frustrate the life out of the opposition.

Listening to that sinks confidence in Seibold and management even lower

Not the fact he left, but the messages they sent him were continuously changed on the run

Yep. Management has plummeted in my already diminished estimation.

Much Cheaper
Much younger with much more improvement
Much More versatile Halves , Hooker , Lock

But Seibold Who does have a say opted for to sign the Warriors Discard and the aging and retiring Jazz Tevaga

As if we do not have enough aging forwards in our slow pack
Go figure...

The Moral of the story
The salary cap is as Effective as the people that manage it

 

[BOZO]

Yep. Management has plummeted in my already diminished estimation.

Accountability starts at he top
All The decision makers . Directors , Ceos , Head coaches .
But Who are they accountable to ?
They are accountable to Our Legendary club High Benchmark Winning standards .
But they do not have the Integrity to step down
and give the opportunity to Greater ones to make Manly Great Again

Yes but what if our captain had said to the coach / ceo last year “ look I’m feeling great and I’m going around for two more years “.

Knowing that , and having signed the two promising juniors , they let young Jamie go.

Not sure if you are one of the many who hate both Seibold & Mestrov, if so you’ll possibly disagree and that’s fine , ill move on BUT to me its the obvious & logical reason why this happened.

Doesn’t add up Mark. I thought there was talk of him privately seeking a release…….not that I know that to be true, just regurgitating……
