Blake Leary

[Mitch]

I wish the club would be transparent enough to tell us who is staying / going so we can say our farewells properly.

Yeah that's a really good point mate, most of these departures have only been seen through player's social media accounts.

And I don't mean it as a whinge, I would have loved to have shaken their hands, thanked them, wished them well and all that.

Nothing is being done right at this ****ing club atm.

Sorry @Mark from Brisbane Leary is out the door as well, Lussick just mentioned it on Instagram.

Well that's a bit disappointing in my opinion. @ markfrombrisbane I am with you on Leary, I think that on his day he can bring a lot to the team. Today we lacked energy except for Korisau and Taupau, but then Leary came on and involved himself in absolutely everything. He was enthusiastic, physical, didn't get stood over.

we never saw the best of this young man to be honest ! This year was definitely not a year to judge his ability.

25 years old born in Monavale in exchange for a 30 year winterstein who will be retired in a year or so ?????

they are not only cleaning out the old footy department but all their recruits as well

Blake if you ever read this thread mate i want you to know i have been supporting Manly since 5 years old I am now 35, my name is Andrew which actually translates into the meaning of Manly.

Do not give up on your career mate you are very very talented and this year was a messed up year.

You are a victim of the Toovey era, chin up mate i am so dissapointed we did not see you in full flight , chin up mate, wish you the best

I always liked Leary. Problem is we had Buhrer who is the absolute template for that kind of player. I wish him all the best. Served the eagles well when he was needed.

 

[conanu]

Nathan Green re-signed but we let Leary go??? That will do me. He is the type of player that will go to Melbourne and end up making us look stupid, again.

UPDATE!! Just saw we didn't renew Green. Thank **** for that!

But signing Lewis Brown over a Mona Vale boy, who set a great precedent under Toovey is not acceptable

 

[Loaded dog]

Maybe Leary will go to Melbourne and make it?

The only reason Penrith didn't score more points in the 2nd half was because the Panther players were all holding there hips laughing that Manly kept Lewis Brown on the field.

If I hear that Barrett, Cartwright, Ferris, Fulton, Slob Zorba Peters, Kelly, Myles and Brown are to follow, that will make my Christmas for the next 10 years.

Blake Leary named at hooker for the cowgirls.

 

[Ned]

Hope he brings out a few of those impromptu chip kicks to nobody from your own 40M line on the 2nd tackle again.

Classic Leary haha

He came off the bench for them last week.And at the risk of being howled down by a few on here,I won't give my opinion on how he went

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

I listened to that one and I thought he went ok. Certainly the commentators thought so.

 

[desreturnoftheking]

Leary is a park footballer. at best.

Isn't it time you changed your name?

 

[Mataiforever]

Leary is a park footballer. at best.

thought he played alright for us last year besides that infamous chip kick, would've done a job for us this year im sure.

 

[Freagle]

Glad he's getting a run for the Cows. We'd be going OK with him in reggies this year and called into the top side when needed for injury etc. Hooker though...maybe not. He said himself that he hated playing hooker, and agreed he was rubbish at it. He's only played there cos he has the right body shape, really!
