I’d keep Parker.The only backs I'd be keeping is:
Turbo
Funa
DCE
Walker
The rest are either washed up / exposed or are yet to prove anything.
I feel like the forwards are good though.
Obviously they have but the quality to do it at game time just isnt there.Does anybody else think Manly doesn’t look like they have been coached or trained together- they play like they have just met for the 1st time but without energy or enthusiasm.
are we getting worse ?
no set plays !
no variety or variations of set plays .
Shattered every week.
Apart from Parker I agree. Who you thinking of as replacements?Croker
Tafua
Parker
Levi
Waddell
JetSki
Cust (going down hill very fast)
Embarrassment to the jumper
I’m giving Garrick the benefit of the doubt for 2020Garrick is proving why the dragons let him go.
Id also let siro go with Thomson. Both way to slow for this game now.
Parker should be depth i reckon.. garrick needs to go as well. How he got driven back in goal in the situation is beyond me. Clearly has no core strength, no power.Apart from Parker I agree. Who you thinking of as replacements?
Keppie was greatMy list
Taufua
Jack
Waddell
Thompson
Parker
Levi
Croker
Sirro
All gone
Keepie
Tank keep in beaten side they have potential.
Also Albert keep saw enough of him today to warrant him staying
Good post. What an almighty fall from grace.
Please add:
Garrick
Thommo (already going)
To the list of outs.
Manly have a lot of buying to do. There are no more excuses the team has just a couple of players missing and plenty of time between games but are still getting owned.
it was also poignant the way Loonie Loonie owned Tafua today. That is the type of player we need. We have building a 90’s team and they look like reserve grade.
I would also give Funa at least 6 weeks in reserve grade to learn defence.

When you have
Turbo
Walker
DCE
Finau
and to a lesser extent
Jake
AFB
Marty
in the spine most of the other players just need to turn up and do their jobs. All the creation comes from those guys.
In turn that list only has DCE and the forwards so of course we are ****ed.
I’d add Suli to that list.The only backs I'd be keeping is:
Turbo
Funa
DCE
Walker
