First Grader
Was a bit of a dilemma, well with potential issues with Latu Fainu a couple of years ago however .And that's our problem, signing players on potential then away's down the track they really haven't given us much at all, then we give them a further 1 or 2yr extension because they showed something in a contract year...it's a frustrating system that we have here at Manly.
On indications the stand out player in his division a couple of seasons ago and definitely in demand from a host of other clubs . Manly under quite a bit of pressure to keep him in the system .
No doubt would have liked to have done the same with Feledy but only one very promising junior no doubt the limit to retain in the circumstances .
Latu ticks the boxes in many areas already and in general terms , well the way i see it , should not have that much trouble managing a stint at i st grade level at some stage through to the end of the season .
Sam has already shown he can compete there .
Brooks certainly has some smart attacking ability, just hope that his defence is up to par as well
Looks more likely then not the pair will leave but if they still wish to and can stay as a preference after all of their other present options , could not see how that would not be n Manly 's longer term interests .
