Kelma Tuilagi

Also, the previous 4 weeks, he's been HEAPS better than normal:

151 metres
105 metres
119 metres
73 metres

So he CAN do it.

I like to see them do it when the chips are down and you cant win.

No one ever told Watmough or Gifty they needed to have a go. Not that he should be compared to them, but Lawton and Davey are of the same ilk.

I am happy to put it down to a bad team performance last night but it would of been nice if he had shown some fight like Naden, Laurie and Garner.

Lets wait until this guy is in the maroons.

After seeing our surrender yesterday, and the Tugger's new $78M Centre of Excellence, I wouldn't blame him if he backflips. At least the Tugger's have put plans in place for a revival.
Has Manly?

Another 32 metre game last night , 5 missed tackles. Sorry guys, I'm worried about him replacing Davey.

How does somebody built like him so consistently get 30 odd metres?

Tamou didn't do much better, and isn't he the captain to lead by example !!!

Got a feeling he'll be a good buy, players of this sort usually benefit from a change of clubs. When your teams running last with a few games to go it's hard to keep up your level of enthusiasm that you had at the start of the season.

Tell that to the Titans.

Wouldn't surprise if he tries to backflip on his contract with us

mmm...well I'd be hugely surprised tbh.

It's not like the club has officially announced him joining us next season. Maybe the club knows he wants to backflip?

 

[deanm]

He will not backflip now that Papallii has agreed to go to Tigpies

Same with Bullemor last year. Didn’t get announced until after the season although was everyone knew it was confirmed

True. Well the club needs more than Tuilagi to change our fortunes. 😑

Nah, it's the Manly way. Release 7 players and pick up 1.

I hope he backflips. I don’t rate him. He is solid and capable of playing the odd decent game but Manly need to rethink their recruitment. We’ve got such a **** forward pack. We don’t need anymore inconsistent impact style players.

We need hard working competitors to drive standards. We are the laziest team. Our pack is immobile and slow. I never thought I’d say this, but Davey is a better option.

I agree that that stylistically there are better fits

Curious what mould of players/ forwards people may think we require?
(Not having a crack - just genuinely curious)...

With an explosive powerful Olakau'atu on one side I'd be looking at a hardworking line running Liam Martin, Jon Bateman type type on the other.

Oooft wouldn't Bateman be the player for us

 

[JenEagle]

Agree with the above. Tbh he is exactly what we don’t need at the moment. Another very inconsistent player who drifts in and out of games from a losing culture.

I think I read somewhere that Bateman wants to come back to Australia. He would be a good get.
