At least we.can never again talk of Turbo being the greatest Manly fullback. One solitary GOOD season, the rest crap and riddled with injuries on top. What makes it worse is his ridiculous salary demands.

Let any other club pay 20% of their cap for him on the sidelines. It would actually do us a favour.
 
Gutho is a great competitor
Turbo is the Greatest Fullback in the game
This is why he is a Million Dollar player

Our Greatness is not in never falling

Our Greatest Manly Premiership Winning Asset is our Great Tom Turbo

You behave like a bot moron, Bozo. You conveniently attack players you don’t like and defend those you do… and yet, the difference in performance is often negligible. So, given a decade of ongoing injuries and failures to even play finals, how would we judge the Pinto!
 
Gutho never should have left. Somebody at our club with brains extended him til 2017 cause they had the right idea. But then he was shipped off in 2015 and we ended up bringing guys in like Walker and Taupau whose careers at Manly were a complete waste. Disappointed
Man I hated Taupau by the end of his time here but we did get a few good seasons out of him mainly when he was up front with AFB. Walker too had some pretty good seasons for us and is still a quality NRL player that I wish we’d kept. Wouldn’t call either of their Manly careers complete wastes compared to some of the other guys we signed in that year

To the point though it’s easy to say now that we’d rather Gutho after Turbo got injured once again, but it’s pretty clear who the better player is when they are both fully fit. Unfortunately for us it just isn’t seeming to work out, bit like keeping Fainu over Api actually. Been a long time since anything went right for this club 😕
 
Maybe we should tweak our strategy to focus on reliable role players who may not be spectacular, but give us stability?

If both fit Turbo easy. At the moment you’d take Gutherson because he’s had a good run without injury.

Funny that we handed Gutherson over to the slime and the ****wits still can’t win a premiership. They give us Jamie Lyon and we win two premierships.

Wouldn't you just kill for some of that 2008-2011 squad right now. Put Snake, Robbo, Lyon, Matai, Ballin, Kite and Beaver into our current squad (at the age they were then) and we'd be an absolute premiership force
 
At the time the decision was made = Turbo (although not sure why we couldn't have kept both).

In hindsight = Gutho.
