Big names in manly roster shake up daily telegraph

[SeaEagleRock8]

I just hope that we are making room for a big splash into the player market ( or we need to make room to complete a major signing

Some story on Fox site saying Panthers could offer Luai up to 800k - after already re-signing Edwards ($850K) Martin ($750K) and Yeo ($850K) to new deals, and "in addition to the likes of Nathan Cleary and James Fisher-Harris already collecting nearly $2.3 million a year between them".

As we all know, journo-bots guess contract figures, but any way you look at it Panthers would need have a lot of their squad on low dollars, espcially when hey have others such as Leota To'o Tago who have been there for a while and, as multiple premiership winners, wouldn't be on peanuts.

Must be a couple of quality players over there looking for a better oportunity?

The same media mob were critical of Manly having $3million of their cap tied up in three players

Or even better, have both? Let me remind you of something:

No point, won’t happen again because he WILL be injured again from SOO.

Not just that. The game has changed since then also. I don't think we will ever see a player reach the heights in a season again like turbo did that year. Has to be the best season from an individual in the history of the modern game.

why does everyone bags parker. he is a good centre, good defence, runs hard. I like Brad.

And i would venture to guess he is much higher on the reliability scale than some of our touted superstars.

I want players who turn up with heart and soul for the club above all else. By all means, play SOO when your body is capable of handling those physical demands, but until then... CLUB FIRST, *ARSEHOLE

*My views of Turbo's choices being arseholish are mine alone and not attribured to Hibyemama.

He is slow and he seems to have a knack for dropping the ball at really inopportune times.

He is slow and he seems to have a knack for dropping the ball at really inopportune times.

But then he makes up for his occasionally (seemingly) uncoordinated style with a great tackle, an offload to his winger who goes onto score, a great decoy run, or a good hit up; not to mention the occasional try, often at a critical juncture in the game.

Parker is wholeheartedness personified. So is Harper. That’s why many of us like Parker and Harper. Their good points more than compensate for their weak points, e.g. relative lack of pace. If only one or two more highly touted players in the side played with the same intensity.

I feel the need to point out that I had only got this far when I liked your post…
I am slightly more of a Turbo fan than you HKE

Good clubman and good back up player...but he shouldnt be starting.

I always respect your opinion TSE.

Has the club embraced your ‘Get McGuire!’ strategy?

I don't know if there is a thread on this bloke somewhere so I'm just going to ask the question here as it's related to player movements (so to speak).

With Faitala-Mariner being officially advised he can look elsewhere by the Bulldogs, what's the view of this bloke and would he be worth trying to bring on board??

Doesnt have the upside for me

I reckon he'd be a better fit at this club...

Josh Aloiai Mk.II.

Read into the apparent reasons why he is being moved on. Then whack yourself in the head and yell, ‘D’oh!’

We already have a few problem children. Some have already been moved on. Why import another one? To keep Josh McGuire (he’s not coming either) company?

Fair enough. I dont really know much about him. I just read something about him having pneumonia. They must've thought he had something going for him having made him Club Captain or something like that. Weird that that turned around so quick.

Parker will inevitably end up in the back row,I believe.
