Clinton Gutherson

[mbe]

I think Clinton wanted to play full back and with Tommy having that job when Snake retires it was decided he had a better chance of playing 1st grade in other teams. At that stage we also had Hiku so he was way down the pecking order. I had always hoped he would play centre when our 2 champions retire but at this point in time it doesn't look like it.

Gordon has already stated that he wants to play another 2 years so gutherson won't get a look in at fullback until 2019 at the earliest

He will be back at Brookvale by then.

Three reasons:

a. Parramatta are getting him at a bargain basement price, Manly are almost certainly paying the bulk of it. Unless he develops into the Caucasian Radradra, the Glue and Olds will probably balk at paying him his full value when the current deal ends;

b. The salary cap stumbling blocks, Fateo and Bargess, whose intransigence forced Hiku and Beakerson out, will be gone; and

c. Even with the Beaker look happening, he is too handsome to pass for a Parramatta player in the first place!

From what i have seen so far he looks very average

I was calling for gutho and hiku to be our number 6. What would I know.

Is this one of those gee up posts?

The plural of try in any context, not just the rugby codes, is tries. There is no such word as trys.

Just as there is no such word as propertys. There is however a word spelt as 'properties.'

The plural of mouse was mice up until the mouse was invented and now we have mouses used everyday.

Are you sure with the deal? I thought with him and Hiku they both in effect agreed to terminate their Manly deals and signed new deals with their current clubs.

They weren't getting them for cents on the dollar because it wasn't a requirement that they go, it was if they wanted to play first grade look elsewhere. Once they found clubs they were released. That doesn't always mean you pick up the tab.

Or if you're Jinxie the Cat, 'meeces'.

Gutherson has looked average at best, though his long break from the game suggests judgement by round 15 will show more accurately, deserves more time.
Hiku does look fitter, but in his preferred centre position has let in many tries & line breaks, not through lack of effort but poor reads & execution. Hiku has always been whole hearted...this is not new...does look a tad faster but will never be anything flash, to move on & keep Turbo as long term fullback will always prove the logical outcome.

showing you're age there

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Indeed!

sad part is, remember them too!

Let's have a 'junior club' style swap deal; They get Jorge, We get Gutho

Gutherson was very good tonight.

No mistakes and I am sure no 42 year old forward would have run him down

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Gunty spilt the first bomb.

Like all good Manly juniors he really can't stand it out there in Ray Warren Land.

That's a backhanded insult given you support the club who signed the 42 year old!!

I support Manly. I did not support punting Gutherson thou.

Wrong thread, wrong winger

He may be referring to his name.

Clinton/Clint is an unfortunate sounding name. Clit, Clunt, etc, you get the idea.

Combining it with a surname like Gutherson is plain stupid - a clumsily conceived mess.
