Q: New coach how do you feel about that?
A: Looking forward to getting back to training to see the familiar faces and Tooves is one of those familiar faces and he'll know exactly what to do this year.
Q: Are you committed to Manly long-term?
A: Yeah mate I'll be there for a few more years to come...happily.
Q: There's been talk you wouldn't be.
A: Oh yeah it's all talk.
Q: Have you worked closely with Tooves in the past?
A: Yeah well he's an ex-halfback so I've had alot to do with Tooves over the previous years and his help is always the best going around being an ex-international halfback so I'll appreciate his work as coach even more now.
Q: Will you miss Dessie?
A: Oh mate obviously Des is a good coach but at the end of the day he's moved on and so do we.
Are you listening Telegraph?
Great stuff and I sincerely believe alot of people on here are getting a little spooked about the paper talk. Let's give our boys some credit and have faith in them and Tooves. Manly are going BACK TO BACK IN 2012.
