Now THIS is an exciting signing !!

What a Super boost.
Manly are recruiting Troy Weeden and I can personally guarantee he is the Best 'Pathways" recruitment bloke we could have signed for the best youth across the country.
It gives Manly a Massive boost in signing the best young players in the game and could well end up the smartest possible signing for many years to come.

Good news Maxta. Hope you're correct.

Do you know him Maxta?

 

[The Who]

So, he'll be weeden out the best prospects?

Exactly.

Do you know him Maxta?

Only him once through a mutual contact mate, but is very highly regarded by high profile NRL profiles and the sources seem all but confirmed.

Well we need something because quite frankly under the Fulton's pathways with Blacktown for the last decade we've brought through very little. I can only think of Olakau'atu and Koula.

I’d say sources seem pretty confirmed.

 

[Not Paul Kent]

Previous stints at the tigers, raiders and Dragons. Seems very little to be excited about.

Even then Olakau'tau did the work for them

Koula was also poached from Newington.

It’s a sad indictment that our sole junior turned up to training serendipitously.

As long as the young outstanding players he brings through are not managed by Tartak, I’ll be happy.

Sorry to disappoint, but I don't follow him and simply posted what I was told, but I feel will be a great signing which only time will tell.

Not a knock on you Maxta, just confirming your scoop!

Pathways to other clubs..

Really?

Tigers and Raiders both have a bunch of great young either being brought through the juniors or cherry picked.

Not sure this guys role in all that but Id say that bodes well.

 

[LeonardCohen]

Jesus, are we the Westfields Sports High School Sea Eagles?! Who's running the joint?! We're Manly from the Northern Beaches, yet our DNA is southwest Sydney. This is very disappointing. I was hoping we'd look to strengthen our Northern Beaches pathways, instead we're going to get a whole lot of Tigers/Eels/Bulldogs cast-offs that couldn't get a start at their local club.

Which explains why the Tigers were happy to let him walk when they signed Scott Fulton?! He's not even in high demand and usually plays second fiddle to Warren McDonald (and previously Peter Mulholland) yet is suddenly and somehow going to provide access to the best juniors in the country?

All is good mate 🤙....I think ppl may mistake what he will bring and good judges with direct club contact are good enough to convince myself, however only time will tell

You are 100% correct on the Fulton part, but there were young players who were basically part of the package with Fulton to Tigers.
Manly had there own agenda here also, wanting "immediate " results for 2024 which will be interesting to see, but decent start needing much improvement
Everyone deserves an opinion and I usually like yours, but we disagree on this impact and all is good
