Certainly a good one to get one out, one back as it were, coming into the SOO season.
and Storm (change for me Ralphie) will be desperate next week down there so that's going to be another war.
They've calculated that it now takes a radio commentary team 83 mins to call a Roosters game...

I'd go for Hiku at fullback and leave Jorge on the wing. I'd blood the kid over ther next few weeks because Tonga isn't the answer going forward.
If Snake gets injured again later in the season at least young Hiku would've played a handful of games and know what 1st grades all about.
Don't want him thrown in during a finals series with only 1 game in 1st grade on the wing.
I really hope Tooves gives the kid a crack tommorow night.

It has to be Hiku for me, he is a specialist fullback who excelled at the 20s level and has at least had 5-6 games now against men to get used to the physicality of it
I'll be disappointed if he doesn't get a run there

We brought back Geoff Toovey!
I think we can expect goods things from Hiku if he gets the fullback role. I want him to back himself and not be tentative under the high ball like he was when he was on debut. If he makes errors then so be it.
I hope u r right Susan and then hiku and Jorge can interchange if necessary

There is no A.I. Just better computers
Tonight is a real "RADAR MATCH" for us. Win and we are on it, lose and we are under it.
Hiku to fullback for me, at least to start.

Hiku to Fullback for mine , lets give him a go. As people have mentioned we may need a genuine fullback option later on in the year! More confidence he gets the better he will be.. Hiku has also played some 5/8 for the warriors 20's team I beleive? so perhaps he could also be more beneficial in our backline plays, chiming into the line??.
If not though and Tooves doesnt want him at FB in such a big game, then he at least HAS to get the wing spot,In saying the above though Tafua will do a good job and will make metres on kick returns which is why I think Toovey will stick with him this week as field position etc will be vital.
Interesting to see which way Toovey does go , id be happy either way as long as Hiku is at least on the wing. Esi cannot be brought in as an option IMO

You may be right HAZ....BUT not named and so Horhay to FB and Tonga to the wing.....I think.
Tonga has plenty of experience AND this could be one of those real tough brutal battles.
I think Manly may well be doing the right thing holding him back!!

Tooves said yesterday that Hiku may play fullback, he will be in the 17 regardless I'd say

DESpicable Manly
Hiku definetly at FB. Let Taufua play were he is most strong, outside skivvy.
The main reason is that SBW and the big men will try an create overlaps on the left side and someone out of position is likely to shift across, rahter than staying wide. Jorge knows his position in defence.
Plus jorge under the high ball makes me nervous.
