No worries I'm sure many of us thought of Manase when we heard Samuela was to make his debut. To me it's a stark reminder that players are much more than mere cattle or performing seals or something, they are all people with their own life problems, families and issues which we mostly don't ever learn much about.

I think of that whenever I read suggestions Oh we must sign Player A or Player B, when we don't know much about them other than how fast they can run and all their various game stats. They are people I tell you, human beings, hence complex and frequently frustrating and unpredictable!!

I can empathies with you on a personal peoples basis
Out of all living creations us humans are the most complex .

All people are equal regardless of their status as all people come with strengths , and weaknesses
and just because a person is not a great footballer does not mean he is not a great man

It takes great players to make a great team . The greater the players in the team the Greater the team becomes and this was our Godfathers Manly premiership Winning motto that other clubs followed his lead to become successful.

When interviewed and asked what sort of player Samuela is, both Garrick and Keppie used the word 'hard'. For some reason I wasn't expecting that but on reflection i can't think of a better quality for an aspiring NRL forward. Can't wait to watch his debut game.

I wish the kid all the best , he’ll be as nervous as anything but that’ll settle quickly.

Hope he blitzes them.

The emotion shown by the Big O, and Josh A ( obviously the Poly boys leader ) and the kid himself , as I say , brought a tear to my eye !!

Brought a tear to my glass eye. But seriously what a great moment. I will definitely look at Josh A in a different light after that. 👏

After watching that, I'm sure now that we'll go well tomorrow.

Yeah they’ll be driven by the emotion of that , for sure.

I defended Josh A last year , everyone pegged him as the ring leader , but I said at the time , and this makes it clear , he’s just the spokesman as such for the Poly family.

Very emotional and shows how tight our group are. Samuela is a big unit I look forward to watching him rip in!

Also dwarfs Haumole. Let's hope he's the quiet assassin. Well, you know, not literally. Can't wait to see how he goes.

Surely after the last two weeks Samuela gets his 2nd opportunity to play first grade. In the forwards this time.

Samuela deserves a go! Our forwards got rolled badly last night!
