Life after Stewarts, Lyon and Matai looked Gloomy...throw in King, Kite, Ballin ect
As we all have been spoiled with massive success the past decade plus....the thought of rebuilding was scary - as the culture of Manly has seemed on the decline with it.
Looking on - we have "Under The Radar" built an Amazing team that is FULL of youth and ability, who based on - YES - only 2 last games - That unrivalled Manly culture other clubs only dream of......Massive credit to the recruitment team who have had many scratching their heads.
The signing of Paseka is a statement of intent - a giant with potential who could be anything, to compliment the skills of Sirro and Lane, young gun front rower Perrett who will be great off the bench, Kapow and big AFB as the strongmen - and the old heads like BJ (In career form again) and Myles, who recently justifies his Manly colours....
Throw in the Hastings signing as a gun utility player, Brian Kelly who will challenge for rookie of 2017, Uate who is showing a change of club was all he needed to fire and the most important component are the Turbo's, who are the Jewel in the crown.
The million dollar man DCE is performing like a champion, rather than buying into the negative press and Taufua is involved like he can, while the signing of Green, to add experience and polish, has proven top shelf.
I don't want to get carried away after 2 games, so success in 2017 is a huge bonus after what was expected early on - Now really pumped about the long term success, because what I can really see here - is a YOUTH policy of quality YOUNG players to ensure long term - not overnight success.....check out the age of these signings
Well played to the Recruitment team who don't get much credit....and Barrett, who with so many new faces....is showing signs of not just getting the players into the Manly way - but buying into it himself....
