Only if Nick Politis comes to Manly as wellCan we keeo Suli and aslo afford Josh addo Car?
Don’t forget MG was a huge Manly fan as a kid. Penrith had him earmarked to play for them , right after a regional carnival when he was 13 and played 5/8. I forget who the other rep side was, but I’d just played in the year below him, and none of us left the sideline to get changed. He was that good. The late Merv Cartwright made a bee-line for him after the game. Also in that side was John Cartwright, Rod Silva, David Smith (roosters).Mark Geyer urges Moses Suli to stay at Manly after offer from St George Illawarra Dragons
League great Mark Geyer has urged Moses Suli to re-pay the faith Manly showed in him when his NRL career appeared all but over as he comes off contract.
Foxsports.com.au broke the news on Monday that Suli was a target for the Dragons, with the Red V tabling the strike centre a three-year offer.
Geyer, however, believes that he should stick with Manly given they gave him a chance to reignite his career after he was moved on by the Tigers and the Bulldogs.
“I’ve got one message for Moses,” Geyer told Triple M. “Don’t do it. Don’t do it, Moses.
“You know what happens when you make it all about money?
“Complacency sets in, stay hungry and stay at Manly.
“He’s found his little bed [at Brookvale], lay in it for a while, until you have exorcised those demons that have seen you leave clubs pretty early in your career.
“Moses Suli came of age last year under Des Hasler. I don’t think any other club could do what Des Hasler did to Moses Suli.”
Geyer is not alone in his calls to urge Suli to stay on the northern beaches.
Manly captain Daly Cherry-Evans told reporters that he wanted Suli to stay, detailing how he had taken particular pride in the player’s transformation since joining the Sea Eagles.
“I’d love for him to stay,” said Cherry-Evans.
“He played right centre outside of me for most of last year and I enjoy playing alongside him.
“It looks like he’s turned things around. He’s certainly training really well, which is a step in the right direction for his footy.”

smartest thing m.g. has ever said, i think
I agree i really want him to stay. Iv been watching last season's games, the kid is a beast we must keep him... but not if its stupid money.Suli looking pretty fit in the latest captains run photos....if he watches his weight and gets even fitter as the season goes he will destroy people.
Wasn’t it that bloke with the hair who gave him the chance? Des only taught him to play and believe.
Viva la desWhile it was Barrett who brought him into our first grade side, Zoolander did say publicly at the end of 2018 that he only played Suli because we had an injury crisis and that otherwise he'd have been playing U/20s or SG Ball (I think it was SG. Could have been one of the other junior comps).
Under Zoolander and Fraud Ferris he was Fatboi Suli and was basically going nowhere fast, on his last chance so to speak. Under Des and Donny he's faster, fitter, more focused and is rated as one of the best young centres in the game again.
Unless another club makes him an offer he simply can't refuse and Manly can't match ... I can see Suli being a Sea Eagle for a long time to come. Especially with Des set to be the coach for at least the next 3 years.

Suli start against Canberra u reckon rest Parker or koula doublefulGlad we didn't sell him yet.
I can't see Parker playing next week, I reckon Suli will take his spot with Walker on the benchSpending most of the season outside of the 17 will hopefully keep him hungry to play well. I don't think he takes either Parker or Harper out of the 17 if we are all fit this year but great to have him as depth for moments like tonight.
