Michael bani

On the ABC news they had an interview with our old winger. He is playing lead in a harry potter musical with a big baratone voice

As it was a good news story they showed him scoring tries for manly and not the cowboys. I know people get upset if multi club players that stumble are shown in manly colours , but not this one.

Talented chap. His tries for manly were spectacular.

and not interested in watching old games which he played in.

Who did we swap him for?

Well done! Always liked Bani. Very fast.

The photo caption says Bani w/ 'North Queensland Cowboys legend Billy Slater' lol!

I went down and watched it a few months ago in Melbourne - was impressed

Also if you follow him on social media you see the struggles he has had in the past and what he is doing now which makes him even more likeable

It also calls him an nrl ‘star’ and then goes on to say that he never really made it to the big time. Another example of the over use of the term ‘star’

Thanks for this awesome good news story on a Torres Strait Islander footy player made good. His dream was to play Origin for Qld but followed his heart and ended up doing something he never dreamt would happen.

What a great role model for players, particularly Indigenous, who can become lost and shows there is still quality of life after footy. Well done to him.

You make the NRL which is the best of the best in the world . You are a NRL star in my opinion.

Ben Farrar, this guy could of been anything, but unfortunately for Ben the could be anything was always injured. Hardly played any first grade for the short time he was here, such a pity as I thought this guy was a gun centre.

 

[JenEagle]

What a legend. He had an amazing game against the cowboys in sept 2007 in the grand final qualifier

 

[Ashton Davis]

Always like Bani. His career with us was a funny one though. He started the season strong in our 2008 season and looked like he belonged but IIRC an injury to him would later open up an opportunity for David Williams. He probably would have been a premiership winner if not for that injury
