Sirro - What to do ??

[maxta]

Personally been a fan of this bloke and often sang his praises, as a fit, healthy Sirro not only tightened up the defensive line, but really added thrust and creativity on those edges.
Also seems to have some Attitude and emotion to his game which Manly need more of.
In actual fact, there have been times when he has came to full fitness and become a dominant figure as an X factor, especially when he started to not just ball play pretty, but when he crashes into the defence and plays "Through" the defensive live....
The problem I have found is the amount of times on the sidelines, seems out - more than in (a bit like me )
Whats the consensus with big Sirro ?....is his value to the team worth the risk, as he is a talent when on his game and more importantly....on the field.
Personally would give him 1 last crack in 2019, but thing is, every time he is out Manly replace him with a NSW Cup standard player and unfortunately the past 2 years it seems more often than not.
Get fit Sirro and give us a FULL 2019 !!

 

[Freagle]

Yep. Also a fan of his work. Just been unlucky so far...

 

[Medowie Eagle]

Throw his money at Corey Oates.

As long as you don't roll it to Oates as he'll knock it on.

 

[Chip and Chase]

With Lane going he is a moral to get that right edge role, unless by some miracle we sign someone else. You're not going to pick Jetski or Frankenstein over him,

 

[pjayz]

We should only give him one last chance. He rarely plays, it just isn't good for the team to have someone on decent coin off the park year after year. He either plays 20 games + next year or let him move on. The issue is that they were supposedly going to put a 3yr extension in front of him - I wouldn't, not until we see how 2019 pans out. If he isn't happy with that then let him go.

Young. Been unlucky. Stick with him. Develop him. Massive fan.

11. Joel Thompson
12. Curtis Sironen
13. Jake Trbojevic

Is possibly top 3 in the NRL talent, attitude and quality wise.

With AFB Api and Marty up front it's a quality top 4 pack. Just need some speed in the backs and a decent coach.

 

[robbiea]

Mate,I really don't think Marty is going to be there.....

I'd say he'd be a bargain price player.

If we can get 15 plus games from him we would be laughing.

Kind of expect only 5-10 games.

At the money Sirro would be on he would be worth the risk.

(Maybe his Dad would like to sit on the bench if we get short, he was a top player)

I'm not sure what you call bargain priced but the figures been bandied around for his current 3 year extension were around $400K per season. Not unreasonable money if he stays fit

Yeah that is probably what I would think he'd be on.

If he played 20 games at full fitness that would be good value for a player with his ability.

 

[Jigzkiller]

In his career he has averaged 12 games a season that's not bad luck that's telling us his body is not up to nrl. A 3 year deal is a big no give him a 1 year not like clubs are beating his door down. He is a great talent but in the salary cap era can't have a player who play's so few games.

Please .... 12 games a season ..... nonsense ..

 

[Jigzkiller]

Facts look them up 85 games in 7 seasons.

Fact ... you need to add in the 427 reggies games in played over the same period .... if you do you get him up to at least 15/16 games a season ... still not good but better than your 12 ...

I believe he'd be on more than you think

 

[Briza]

The problem is blokes of his age need continuity to strengthen and age the body to match the mind(battle hardened )
This is irrespective of the sport, if he can have 24 months injury free I've no doubt he can reach his potential.
Without knowing his entire injury history, I'd have him signed till the end of 2020 and go from there.

 

[KNUCKLES]

Reported 400k a year upgrade apparently
