Joey Manu set to leave Roosters to take up French rugby offer

[rented tracksuit]

So if Manu skips to Tillou and Teddy retires we'll have $2 million to throw at Mitchell. Or maybe $1.3 mill a year for Latrell and plenty of change.

There needs to be a dislike button on this forum.

The master is just bating I think.

What position would he play in Union?
Would he see more ball than he did at the Roosters?

Personally, that’s been a failing for the team over the last few years, not being able to give Joey good ball for him to work his magic. When Latrell left he should of been the go to guy in attack. Kyle Flanagan couldn’t pass and was consequently sacked. You could say the same with Sam Walker. Unleash the beast.

Unfortunately when Joey was shifted one in, he couldn’t make it work. If our pack was firing, was running against a retreating defence, he would just about be unstoppable.

It doesn't sound like Joey is going for the money as surely, we could've offered close enough to keep him. He will be a big loss and just getting into his peak years which is unfortunate.

It does leave us short an x-factor player. But we should have a little extra in the cap to find a replacement or a bit to find Teddy's long term replacement.

Robbo and Nick may get into Suaalii's ear about getting out of his rah rah contract.

Not making a lot of a sense as in another article he's talking about every kids dream in NZ is to play for the All Blacks and it would cool if he could. If he goes to France or Japan to play Rugby he won't be eligible for selection for the All Blacks.

Has he said he wants to play for the All Blacks? I'm sure he would like to, maybe he just wants to be successful in both codes because he can't wait much longer if he has an itch.

It might be different if NZ Rugby were chasing him.

Yes he has.

He says its every kids dream to play for the All Blacks and if he goes to union his too.

Yeah, nah IMO Manu is better. Both as a centre and FB

Stephen Crichton is the reigning centre of the year and is a 2 x centre of the year in only 4 full seasons of football played he has everyone else covered.

Awesome player. Worth every cent and more to whoever acquires his services. The NRL will continue to lose its best until they do something about it. Also, if they wanted a real good advertisement for Rugby League then they should have let JWH play and serve the remainder of his suspension in Australia. But they have no idea how to promote the game or how to keep the best players.

This was just sent to me:

Just spoke to a roosters heavy and he reckons France is falling through. He’ll play in Japan for the same coin. Shorter season and come back to double dip with the roosters. Interesting

In my opinion, those awards mean jack …
Do you remember when Luke Brooks won halfback of the year? That says it all!!

Brooks had a great year in 2018 and he fully deserved it

Never seen it. What is rugby league? My TV must be broken. Can you lend me one so I can watch what you’re watching?
