Shaun "Exit" Lane mega thread.

[Captain Moondog]

Average signing at best in my opinion. Green has proven himself more at nrl level. Yes I know lane has scored 5 tries in 15 games but if watch those tries they were all gifts

He says he'll take them

@manlyfan76 by disagreeing with me are you suggesting I actually do have some idea?

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Lane is a good signing.

 

[pjayz]

I've seen most of his first grade games and I was shocked when the Dogs let him go; obviously there is something wrong from a behavioural point of view - or at least there was. Let's hope he can reach his potential with us.

We have to remember that these guys are just kids, some people mature later in life and that is when the penny drops and the effort to be their best kicks in - he is only 21.

That's the idea.

Could be one of the best signings we've made, but maybe we want know until he is 23

Behaviour may have been an issue two years ago at the dogs, but he was 19 then. Everyone has a slight attitude problem at that age! He will mature bulk up and will be a me good signing for us!!

Haha yea when his contract is ending

 

[Medowie Eagle]

I can say that I am excited to see how he goes. Like a few others have mentioned he was good at the Dogs in 2015. There may well be some underlying attitude issues but how many times do we see players go to Melbourne who have been written off and turn their careers around. Life is all about chances and it is up to him to take this chance and deliver on the talent he has.

Hopefully nothing shady that comes back to bite Manly.

I understand that his sister Penny is a very nice girl too.

 

[EagleRock40]

I'm OK with the Lane signing. I think its great we are targeting big, young forwards. And to be fair, he would have come pretty cheap. Gillett is obviously the international forward being spoken about, I just hope we don't pay massive overs for him. Uate is a terrible move, although I think we do need another centre. I cant see Walker and Matai being our centre combo for 26 rounds plus finals. Injury or suspension is a given.

His brother Denny plays a mean guitar @bob dylan will know of him?

Yes...quite the scholar.

I only know of Denny Freeman who has long departed from the band.

Anyway Bob only talks to Tony Garnier who has played in +3000 concerts

Lol. Agree, I've heard he went bush & is now,
an Off-Rhodes scholar.

At just 21 years of age, new Sea Eagles forward Shaun Lane wants to 'settle down'.

Life is good again off the field for the former Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs and NZ Warriors back-rower.

A fresh start at Manly, living with his family, and being nearby his friends has seen Lane smile again.

Three clubs in less than three years caused Lane some heartache and pain.

“I’m only 21, but it feels like I have been around for a couple of years now,’’ Lane said.

Good luck to the Kid .... I am liking the fact that we have a few blokes with points to prove.
