[robbiea]

i wouldnt mind Sing ,imagine him & bell together in the centres !!!!,also, i hope we do get Pritchard..Sims & Creagh from the dragons would be the acquisition i am hoping for the most though!! We should free up more cash by getting rid of King ,BK,Dunley ,Williamson,Witt,Stephenson, & if we are going to do a complete clean out to free cash ,probably hoist Monaghan & Hicks aswell.The way i see it is ,if we can get rid of a heap of just average players ,buy 3 or 4 quality players & blood some up & comers ,that would be sweet..But it will never happen !!

 

[Berkeley_Eagle]

Fuifui Moimoi
Ben Smith
Chad Robinson

all re-signed for parra yesterday

 

[Garts]

need depth robbiea, it would be crazy to get rid of all of those players and hope untried players from the lower grades make the step up.

 

[Cameron]

i want ryan released so he can go back to the bears :blaugh: :blaugh:

 

[robbiea]

need depth robbiea, it would be crazy to get rid of all of those players and hope untried players from the lower grades make the step up.

kennedy,s going anyway ,willo,steppa ,witt, & dunley arent doing anything now-and never will.All the players i mentioned above are easily replacable AS THEY ARE NOT GREAT TALENT,bar BK.

 

[Berkeley_Eagle]

Manly really needs to sign some forwards that really get in and do the hard stuff

 

[Nutzcraw]

I'd like any or a couple of these players:

Trent Cutler
Nate Myles
David Stagg
Dean Widders
Frank Pritchard
Shane Rodney
Ben Creagh
Ashton Sims
Justin Poore
Micheal Henderson
David Shillington


Retain - Beaver, Burns, Ballin and Bryant (the b's)

 

[Downie]

If we can get Lyon, that'd be a huge boost. Could play centre or five-eighth, depending on where we need him the most. Then we'd need a forward who gets in there and does the hard stuff, like Sims, Pritchard, Creagh or maybe even Stringer.

 

[KaZa]

Resign:
Steve Menzies
Ben Kennedy (
Kylie Leuluai
Travis Burns
Mark Bryant
Matt Ballin

Sign from other clubs:

We need 1 back and 2 forwards and a 5/8
In order of preference

Centres:
Josh Hannay
Willie Tonga
Nigel Vagana

Forwards:

Ben Creagh
Nate Myles
Dean Widders
Frank Pritchard


Five Eigth:

Kurt Gidley
Jamie Lyon

Id love Gidley at 5/8.. with Hannay Creigh and Myles

1. Stewart
2. Roberston
3. Bell
4. Hannay
5. Hicks
6. Gidley
7. Orford
8. King
9. Monaghan
10. Kite
11. Creigh
12. Watmough
13. Beaver

14. Lulu
15. Myles
16. Bryant
17. whoever impresses the most as a utility.

 

[SilentBob]

A 5/8, a prop. a centre and a backrower (preferably a lock).

Re-sign Burns, Ballin, Bryant, Menzies and Leuluai (on a contract that hurts him when suspended).
Release Monaghan, King, Dunley and Witt if they can't prove thier worth consistently by June 30.

Good stuff Kaza. I like your preferences with the possible swapping of Myles for Pritchard. Love the thought of Gidley. Hed also be close to home with us, like BK/Ox. At this point I would also ditch King for another prop.

 

[Ryan]

OK - here's what I'd like to see in a perfect world:-

01. Brett Stewart
02. Michael Robertson
03. Steven Bell
04. Steve Matai
05. Chris Hicks
06. Jamie Lyon
07. Matt Orford
08. Brent Kite
09. Matt Ballin
10. Stuart Fielden
11. Anthony Watmough
12. Ben Craegh
13. Steve Menzies

14. Luke Williamson
15. Kylie Leuluai
16. Mark Bryant
17. Adam Cuthbertson

Dunley, King, Monaghan, Witt released to free up cash for the new marquee signings.

Back ups would then be Rose, Styles, Halden, Meaney, Tutt, Stewart etc etc..

 

[Garts]

That team looks nice, was wacthing Fielden play earlier. Love to see him in a Manly jumper!!!!

 

[Ryan]

To be honest, I actually think it would be affordable if the players I listed were released, and BK retiring. Remember, Beaver isn't actually on that much, due to time @ club.

I actually say that would be a roster to rical Brisbane, Parra & Dragons.

 

[Berkeley_Eagle]

now if we could get mal reilly as coach and graham lowe as CEO, there would be a way to get pom and kiwi players LOL

 

[Nutzcraw]

In a perfect world we'd have joey

 

[Fluffy]

if we can sign Karmichael hunt we will survive after menzies retires as we will have a khunt to take over from beaver

 

[Utility Player]

Bump

There you go Clon - Daniel might like to make this a sticky

 

[clontaago]

Cheers UP and cheers Ryan for putting this together initially.

I reckon we only need to sign Creagh to replace BK, and Lyon as an addition and we will be right.

Put Lyon in the centres, if its not working shift him to 5/8 and put Matai back in the centres.

We have three solid front row reserves and a couple of strong back row reserves.

The side I would like to see next year:

Stewart
Hicks
Bell
Lyon
Matai
Burns
Orford
Bryant
Monas
Kite
Creagh
Watmough
Menzies

Benchies/Fringe:

King, Leuluai, Robertson, G Stewart, Cuthbo, Ballin, Rose, Stephenson
