And Koula has played how many NRL 1st grade games?
Koula and Tuipulotu could well get a taste of NRL in the final two games
It is about time he has been given a go in the NRL feathered friend .
The Kid is a Natural ... So lets let Nature takes it course into NRL level
Could be a tough game if Manly make it that way
Complete and compete and the win will come
Manly will come out on top
GO MANLY

I have no doubt he will, based on his achievements and I look forward to his debut.
However, we are fighting for a top 4 spot. Not the time to experiment as we know Funa can hold his own in big games, although a bit unlucky on one occasion which left him on the bench after suspension.
The Raiders coming in dramatically in the bookies eyes , now $3 ( in from $4.50), we are out from $1.15 to $1.39.
Why does that matter? Did you say that before turbo had his debut?

A little bit different in that Turbo had a NYC/Holden Cup side to play in during 2015. Koula has not had that exposure.
Tom had an excellent strike record in the lower league and was part of the Manly Holden Cup losing GF side that year.
Tom played 9 NRL games in 2015, as a replacement for injuries to Brett Stewart and other wingers
So he did have some good form when starting in 2016, as compared to Koula, who has been held back by Covid19 restrictions.
.
Koula played NSW cup against men for a few months before lock down. Probably harder than playing under 20s

True, but he wasn’t exactly lighting it up like Tom was.
No but deserves a crack. Can't go any worse than funa

That is pretty unfair. Tuna is a centre or a FB not a winger. He has copped the blunt end of the stick this year... thrown in at 6 and then at wing outside of Sili.

Horhay was the one setting him up and making him look good.
Haha come on. Did Jorge make him look good in juniors too? The kid is a speedster. That's half the battle in first grade these days. Look at Saab.
Yes it is fair becuase he's playing on the wing. I'm saying Koula could do no worse on the wing if Garrick is filling in for Turbo. Imagine two speedsters on the wing.

Gee, my bad. Here I was thinking we are discussing NOW. Why are you now using his "junior" form as evidence after you were saying that he needs to play against "men"? I posted what his form has been this year against men.
Good grief, some people on here can't keep a discussion on track and like to ignore reality to further an agenda they make up in their head. Please ignore button me as I don't have anything to say that you agree with buddy.. Cheers.

Tyfuna made a poor defensive read that gifted the Faders their first try. But apart from that he was quite solid, and showed some good pace. Having watched him in reserve grade quite a few times I do believe he is a better player than he has shown so far in First Grade. I'd retain him in the squad for at least another season. Not every player makes an immediate impression. He may be one that matures a little later. He has the necessary skills to make a good NRL player.

First Grader
Think that he is more suited to cenre where he played most of his junior [ 20 "s ] and Black town Town footy. All though did play some full back in the 20 's Just my opinion but pretty average full back in i st grade , not too bad on the wing but why Des had him at 6 against the Knight will remain a complete mystery to me , not even the slightest indication that he was suited there . Good to be retained at a base salary and for depth , looks like he gets on well with his team mates and has a good temprement so that has to be a positive .
