[Resurrected] Parcell the next to go?

- Start date

Nobody (or almost nobody) is saying that Api is the best hooker in the world. Some of us just believe Parcell wasn't either.
I am surprised no one ha mentioned the obvious tin foil hat conspiracy theory
Bozo is back...and he is tight with the Lussick family....who have a son who has just come back to the club...and he is a hooker....and well we know Bozo tends to favor people he knows...

Matt Parcell no option but to leave Manly. Had a bizarre performance review from Barrett who made it clear he doesn't want a hooker who runs

If Barrett doesn't rate Parcell then this club is in a worse state than I feared.
If he wanted a hooker that just passed, and I presumed tackled, then why did he/they punt Ballin?

Living in the demountable.
Coz as good as he was he can't stay on the field these days. I read that interview with him the other day and he said he's "confident" of being ready for the start of the year which as we all know means he's no chance.

We need a hooker who can dominate the scrums. I want to see us win every scrum stat in 2017!

Neither Api or Parcell are in the top 5 or so hookers in the game. Both have their strengths and weaknesses. Api is tougher, fit, strong, has good footwork and a good dummy, a real competitor - but lacks a crisp pass.
Parcell had a nice pass and acceleration, but looked so lost out there at times. Didn't know if to run or pass, then he would run and then stop??
Both I would of expected to do a lot better in 2017 (we won't be able to see how parcell would of gone, he lacked confidence this year but would of been better in 2017)
Am hoping Api can stay fit, as do DCE and Green so they can learn each others games and feed off each other. Ballin was here for 10 years, and he built up those combinations over time and by playing almost every game!
Neither Parcell or Api are anywhere near Smith, Hodgson etc who are like another half. They direct play and also can kick. But lets hope Api can find a good combination with his halves and also Tom when he decides to run.
I think he'll do fine

Hope so, also if J Lussick has the ability to step up now is the opportunity.

Well to me this club smells and acts like early 2000s.
Ferris could cop he can't tackle close to line gives away too many penalities. But other fuk me Clint gutherson, hiku now parcell.
Koriseau needs to focus on passing a football and less about the new manly nines jumper looks great.
To me we have way too many who resume may look good myles, brown, koriseau but are simply not first graders.
A 9 is essential to being even a top 8 force. Ennis, smith, peats where api around the worst. Whoever is responsible better fix it as fans have had jack.

I've heard Zorba is fuceking turd that eats too much and has too much power but that's just a rumour I heard?
Anyway, merry fuceking Xmas to all on Silvertails and all the best for the new year. Go Manly.

You don't get a crisp pass in one off season. Playing with natural fast twitch fibres and a bit of mongrel, heaps of pace and strength beyond your frame maybe saw the bloke move through the lower grades and juniors without the need to work on the more cerebral stuff like when and where to pass and why.
He can't kick. It's like putting a staffy in a paddock to round up sheep when we sold the border collie to the bloke down the road.
