Hi, I live down in Melbourne (Home of the AwFuL) but i am a Storm supporter through and through.

I would like to get your opinion on Ian Donnelly?



thanks

One of the softest, most pathetic disgraces that have pulled on a maroon and white jumper - even by the standards of recent years.

He was famed for his powder puff runs, coughing up the ball to the opposition in our own half and for gracing the social pages in the Sun Herald. He's all your as far as I'm concerned. I hope you haven't paid him as much as we did.

Ian Donnelly....


Hmmmm...


Has the potential to be quality (he's a very big bloke) but he simply doesn't hit the line with the intensity that he should. Because of this he often got pushed backwards or even lost the ball.

I wasn't disappointed when we lost him, quite simply because we have better big men in PL.

Donnelly was a big disappointment for Manly. Didn't live up to his potential - in an underperforming pack. Spent a lot of time in Premier League in 2004. Could be a good buy but he will have to wake up and show an improved attitude.

Manly won't miss him at all in my opinion.

the fact that we released him and then Manly have not put up a fight for him should tell you something.
3 clubs now in 3 years.

He doesn't run with any intensity at the line, he stops, almost as if he is worried about getting smashed. His hands are terrible.
