No to Big Willie. The guy makes too much noise, and we need players to "get in line" with the organisation, not another mouth piece with a massive ego and a swag of opinions.

Snake - Big Willie swims with the whales and we could use him.
If we need enforcements, he would blend in at Sea Eagles. Tooves will stamp his authority on it. Bozo, Des and Tooves have the knack of getting into the heads of troublesome noisy motors and their accompanying issues.

Willie's getting older, so maybe he is at a ripe stage to pick. Like maturity on a red wine.
Our forwards and pack are ageing mate, thus retirements aleady.
Joe Gulavao would still be with us only for injury. Brent Kite would also be only for the mongrel salary cap which divides players and clubs.

Have a second think mate, because Willie could be our Manly version of Buddy Franklin and give the place a bit of a lift as well. Killer and Tooves will control him and we might even get him for a reasonable "aged caring" deal.

$10 million for a nine year deal?

Correct Denno - the bloody mongrel salary cap at it again.
Divides clubs and players.
Willie might be what we need to replace a few enforcers we have lost.
He will get his rest periods but he can still run and carry and bump a few off.
I'm sure we all at Manly could help improve his suntan for him.
 
Sign him for a year, very handy size off the bench then we can get ready for whomever comes on the market in 2016, surely there will be one key frontrower?
