I believe that that unconfirmed premise was based on Fainu Jr going in the other direction.

Why is it that every player that signs with Manly is automatically labelled a plodder, useless, a reject, a dud…..in fact most of our current team are called the same. Can’t believe some of the $hit talk in this forum. Seems no one is good enough to play for Manly. So much for supporting our players & new signings!

Our new players are amazing, and they've filled numerous holes with them.

Brooke’s, Paulo, Talau, Koula & Schuster resigned…..are they that bad? One or two hard nosed forwards & sitting pretty don’t you think Ryan?

Look at other teams; Souths make one signing and it’s Jack Wighton, and they’ve already got a top squad.
Don’t try and tell me Brooks is a marquee signing, while Paulo and Talau are barely first graders.
Would rather a gun front rower or hooker, if we had cash to splash.
Ryan
Journey Man
Yep, I absolutely do think that mate.
What about Brooks?

Turbo’s inability to stay fit and healthy has had a far greater detrimental impact on this team’s fortunes over the past 5 or so years than any perceived plodder. And that may well continue, though some of these signings I believe help negate the negative impact Turbo’s injuries have on us.
100%, this is the guy
And we should still try if we can. Parker, Harper and Veaga out. Iro, Paulo and Talau in.
Love Parker and would keep him with no further outside back signings but very keen on Iro

Hopefully he is managed by Moses then lol

I don’t think Hank Scorpio is going anywhere Disco.
His selection straight into this week’s starting lineup suggests they still value him highly.
I tend to agree that he s unlikelly to be going anywhere but I would read too much into this week.
He only had to beat out Harper

Harper is a better player than some of the other three quarter options. Gives it his all every game.
Or take him for granted. Manly junior with no other club interested in him.
Seems Manly is busy signing everyone else, then will offer Parker whatever dregs are left.
Unfortunate, but true.
But........
Dessy knows how hard he tries - I wonder if he would have the Titans show interest?
