Manly Sign Lawton

[maxta]

Lawton is way more powerful than I expected....was kind of thinking he was all about explosive running from dummy half, but in the Current game, could create 1000 nightmares around the middle as a handful and has vision to support and run Super lines
This bloke is a pure footballer and a good 1....my young fella thought he was similar to Buhrer in form back in the day and its not far off...

Had an awesome game tonight and what a great signing by Manly..

He is a gun. He also allows you to pick a specialist utility on the bench as well as him. Great cover for a number of positions.

Gun. Just the type of player we have been missing. Real work horse, great post contact metres, very good defence, runs good lines, gets in and does the hard stuff and can play multiple positions in the backs or forwards.

Great buy!

How good is his post contact metres and hits hard too. Very impressed with this guy.

Why?

Now we have Manase Fainu maybe going to jail and not playing at least to mid year
and Karl Lawton who won't play all year with a ruptured achilles - SO DUMB

Our recruitment has been AWFUL ! Are they TRYING to piss all our salary cap up the wall?

Love, love, LOVE when he sneaks into dummy half.

You've come around...

He has been a v good buy for us, especially with all the injuries

He is fast becoming a favourite player of mine. I love how he is firing up and charging in breaking tackles and most importantly making some big tackles.

Helps I seem to have a penchant for hookers.........no no I mean the position.. then again

reminds me so much of the cheese

reminds me so much of the cheese

He is clearly our very own "Hectic Fromage" Previously (when he was a part-time underwear model, and parttime footballer) he was known on the Goldie as "Becks" as in Posh and Becks (see below)

Meet the NRL's hottest couple

Karl Lawton and Rosie Van form the NRL's hottest couple. Lawton is in line to make his NRL debut on Saturday while Rosie has over 100,000 fans on Instagram

but I also think his style of play is very similar to "The Cheese". Definitely a keeper, and a fantastic recruitment decision as well.

So on all the Facebook pages the women are frothing themselves over Lawton. My mrs was more keen on his bro but nonetheless the women seem to rate this guy and not for his football ability

Lol. This club

What's so funny about this club? Des doesn't know how to pick the right players, according to yourself and other genius talent identifiers. Lol all right.

 

[Kevinward777]

wow just wow

Sausage roll?

Another thread proving that Des knows best.

Lawton is a fine player , a great signing.

Lawton is a fine player , a great signing.

And despite all of my carry on earlier in the year - Parker, Garrick, and Croker don't go too bad either. The coach knows best.

Why do people like you get so offended by other people's opinions.

Hands up I will say I was wrong on this one. They were saying he wasn't due back till really late in the season. Never said I'm a pro but we are allowed opinions. Nobody in this world gets everything right. Not even Des.

Signing an injured player is absurd. But they obviously knew his injury wasn't as bad. It's turned out to be a good signing. I was wrong.

I'm happy to admit it.

He's a good little player.

A few of us have had to eat humble pie , I never thought Croker would make a 9.

Read my post above your own. We all get it wrong mate. But Des is, was and always will be an exceptional coach, to suggest otherwise is complete madness - Des is the man!
