I could understand a kick on the third tackle if we were running with the wind......

I'd gladly keep Green, but only if he goes straight to the coaches box. Plenty of money in the cap for a 5/8. I want a real no 6.

He has brought out the best in Cherry, DCE said it himself as did Baz. And we do have multiple play makers, Tom, Green, DCE and Api.

Green is a touch under rated in my opinion. At least by us manly fans. Dont get me wrong I'd take a moylan or a cronk in a heartbeat but our biggest problem aint green.
1 ir 2 more Outside backs with speed and a goal kicker please.

Absolutely loved this season. Our boys ripped in. We came 6th overall (against the odds). So many players improved. Quite a few surprises. Others have said this, but as disappointing as last night was results wise, our whole club should be very proud.
Blake Green helped us achieve that (and I was one of his biggest critics prior to the season starting). Jeez some of you guys are harsh.
We are a player or two away from competing with the best teams in the league again, consistently. Really happy.

How is he ****? He's done his job to perfection and his defence over the last two weeks has been fine, I understand his criticism during those weeks against dragons, storm where both he and cherry appeared clueless although everyone has form slumps. As far as I know he's done a great job, his short kicking game is exceptional and his passing game is usually really good. Baz mentioned how he plays like a coach on the fieldF*** me, I'm getting my eyes tested first thing Monday.........

For a supposed stabilising factor Green has been too hot and cold this season. Sure he has helped the team into the 8 with some amazing 40/20s and deft touches into the in goal, but he has gone missing in the game when DCE and the rest of the team needed him most. His kicking game yesterday was really poor..not blaming him for the loss.. I would trade him for Moylan in a flash though.
It's not so much that he is bad, he just doesn't have enough strings in his bow as a playmaker.
His kicking game is incredibly overstated too, there was one kick on the fourth last night where he still kicked it to Penrith on the full. A lot of his grubbers don't even make the in goal.
His defence is terrible also, no intent at all.
He has done ok this year, and I take the point that dce has regained form with green as the foil. It's just he simply doesn't offer enough. Look at all the top teams, BOTH playmakers are threats. Green is just not really a threat at all.
If dce has flourished with green, imagine how good he would go with a 5/8 who can do what green does AND more.
I don't necessarily think someone like Moylan is the answer, I just don't think that we will be progressing further next year with green.

I think Green was a good buy for this season and possibly the next but I don't think we will win a competition with him...he is a piece of the rebuild puzzle. He has played well more often than not and probably been more effective than I initially thought he would be...but...the ruthless Manly of the past know that we need to take things to another level and I don't know if he will get us there.
Moylan would be able to me thinks. The spine is everything. I have been Koroisau's biggest supporter on this forum and he is massive in defence but I'm still concerned about his service. Manly get up the field slower than most teams in the competition because of it and in fast semi finals with rushing defence, his service to the halves needs to be fast and direct. It wasn't last night.

Korisau's style worries me that he may not have a consistent or long career,Segeyaro is an example
I reckon the young hooker from 20's will be part of the nrl squad next year. So there will be constant pressure on API to keep improving as he has done this season.

It doesn't show up on TV quite as much, but at the ground, you can see Green and DCE struggle to take the ball over the advantage line before making a decision with the ball, due to the level of concentration and effort that goes into catching the pass from dummy half...it is usually up just above their head or it floated to them and they have to stand, wait and catch it and then start their movement towards the line.

I said within 5 minutes of the game that Api was off; he looked completely lethargic from the get go.

I think some people have forgotten how instrumental Blake has been in getting Manly into the finals in the first place.
