The Book of Albert

He's built like a kid still mate. I don't think he is that fast either for FG and he certainly won't be big enough to push the opposition around like he did in the juniors.
He’s no chance. Not even close.Des won’t play Hoppa and Hoppa could bench press 3 Ben Ts
I’m all for youth but the only viable options for first grade are Hoppa and Shuster right now... and they are light years ahead of the others. From what I’ve seen of Ben he’s not in the same league. ... depends on how he develops physically.
 
There is a generation next in Hopoate, Fainu, Schuster, Cust, Guac, Funa and Parker.

They are all more important than Walker, Suli and Kapow IMO.

Parker is 23 and Suli 22?

Or are you more talking about players that came through the system?
 
So, Hoppa Jnr will be making his NRL debut in round 16.
How ironic is it that it will be the first time most Manly supporters will have seen him play?
I wouldn't mind if we didn't need him, but we've lost our two fullbacks and Jorge is no longer up to standard on the wing. It's an astounding decision by DESpicable.
 

Looks like Hoppa might make his debut next week.

If things go well, the Warriors could make an offer to Hopoate for next season and if he does join, he’ll be part of an outside back crew that should have plenty of x-factor about it.

Oh super not!!!
