Andrew Walker coming to Manly

[CanadianSteve]

I just read on Rugby Heaven that Andrew Walker is leaving union and the Brumbies and will sign with Manly. It said he was offered a lot more money than the Brumbies were offering. I'm sure his decision is also influenced by his not being close to selection for the Wallabies this year. I remember seeing him play very well for the Wallabies in 2001, and a bit last year as well, but I think his off-field troubles have put him out of contention.

He said in the piece he missed the excitement of the NRL.

Is this a good signing for Manly, and RL?

Manly, Souths and Wests have a real nack of picking up bad eggs. I think he was always suited more to union but he could become a good NRL player again. I just question his attitude and aren't Manly also wanting to sign Chris Walker? :shock:

Manly are in the hunt for Chris Walker, if successful they will have three Walkers...tad confusing !!!!

How about Manly re-name them

Ben Walkover
Chris Walkout
Andrew Walkabout

That should put and end to the confusion :lol: :lol: :lol:

Andrew will be a welcome addition to our strong side next season!
