2017/2018 Manly lineup

[maxta]

This is the team I would be building for in 2018

1.Tom Wright
2.Jordan Rapana
3.Tom Trbojevic
4.Dylan Walker
5.Matthew Wright
6.Jack Bird
7.Daly Cherry Evans
8.Addin Fonua Blake
9.Matt Parcell
10.Asofa Solomona
11.Tariq Sims
12.Marty Taupau
13.Jake Trbojevic

14.Willis Meehan
15.Liam Knight
16.Lewis Brown
17.Darcy Lussick

Very good look to it...just think a Javed Bowen speedster type for Wright for similar coin & maybe improve on Lussick & Brown on the bench for the same money also....just my opinion, but that side looks top shelf & .....not too much of a stretch as Sims & Solomona are likely, plus Bird is fancied to arrive & was almost signed last year.

 

[Not Paul Kent]

Pretty creative there flying eagle.

Have you had any help to fly ? Hello Mary Jane.

Maybe Tom Opacic is a stretch and I'm pretty sure Charlie Taylor just quit league to pursue a modelling career.

 

[Turbo]

1.Wright(gk)
2.Tafua
3.Trbojevic
4.Walker
5.Hopoate
6.Bird
7.Cherry-Evans(c)
8.Sims
9.Parcell
10.Fonua-Blake
11.Sims
12.Taupau
13.Trbojevic(c)

14.Meehan
15.Buhrer
16.Knight
17.Lussick

As much as I don't like Tom not at fullback it's probably best for the team, Tom wright sounds like he is a good kicker in general play and has some ball playing skills. Tom is a runner of the ball like Inglis he also has ball skills but they are not as strong as Tom wrights. As for signings bird will be at manly next year or 2018 for sure. Sign the sims brothers from the spooners and get hoppa back he is a great players but he is a winger should return to manly, and with this team we have 10 players that started at manly that will help bring back our culture.

[Ryan]

First of all everyone, the club has come out and said Matai is going nowhere, so start by re-installing him back in those line-ups.

If Bullet comes back, I see no reason why he doesn't pull off another year as well.

I think he'll be around next year but cant see him in the side by 2018.

I hope so - maybe in a coaching position. Couldn't be any worse than Cartwright, and that Storm "defensive" coach we are experiencing.

We NEED to get Manly men back in Manly. Des, Tooves - anyone. What we witnessing here is NOT Manly. It's also amazing how similar our team is to The Titans when Cartwright and his fitness guru Dan Ferris was there.
+ Always injured
+ Fading in and out of games
+ Attitude being questioned
+Perennially 12th - 16th in the standings

Sucks.

I think you guys should refocus. try and pick barrets side for next week. Step 1 go to kmart and purchase a daredevil mask and a game of pin the tail on the donkey.
Draw a picture of each of our squad members and remember to take kapow out just like greenturd did in this instance. Then take the teachers apple out and put him in your side. Stick your squad to the donkey.
Wait til its dark spin around 3 times and then select a player off the wall. Until the team is full. Dont be shy about playing people out of their position.

Zak Hardaker? WTF. Tom t for sure at fullback and Jesse ramien moving into centres. Nate Myles out of the team all together for AFB. Willis Meehan onto the bench replacing Lewis Brown or Lussick.

 

[Woodsie]

Foghorn leghorn to prop,
Donald Duck to 5/8
Wily E Coyote to half
DCE to the wing,
Myles to fullback
Turbo to hooker.

Yes he is behind Parker and Parker wants 2 more years I doubt arrow wants to wait another 2 years for a spot

Good call

Maybe he will slot into Gillet's spot though?
