Footy Mad, love the passion you bring and knowledge , must be frustrating to be a Moanly fan and not have a decent blog to talk footy on

All clubs talk up their own juniors, and I have no doubt clubs like ours will continue to chase Davis and I hope we get him :)

I will say this though, you guys have a very good team and I like it. If you guys don't get into the Semis there is something very wrong

He is not a winger thats for sure, he is not good under the high ball and runs straight, not nimble enough and doesn't have the explosive speed for a winger

He scored a try a game when he was moved to the wing last year. That's where we've identified he should play.

I think FM may have some goodall envy. Clearly better than Taylor, understandable manly fans upset they went to the trouble of poaching our player only for him to turn his back on them.

Quick flick through the stats of last year with the exception of maybe manly v Gold Coast goodall clearly outplayed Taylor when they both started on the wing every time. Good work Mr Nolan.

You would have had from Manly Knight and Gosling on that left side as I know tries from parra were scored down the left edge which was the side in the first half closest to the grandstand side but none were scored on the right side of the field where Taylor and Parker ( second row ) were marking all night

Fabian didn't even play half of the beginning of last season for Manly as they didn't want him. I was told he had Disciplinary Problems

He must've been pretty shit for you to sign him in the first place. And for him to get picked in the Origin pathways aged 18.

Hopeless player. The Manly Daily did a whole article about his NYC dominance last year. They must do that about every shit player. Taylor probably got one too.

If we sign Davis, the Footy Mad will have real home to go to, currently he has good points and is welcome as a temporary visitor

He is not hopeless he is very good but he has Disciplinary Problems and Manly won't put up with that, he fails in his fitness, whether he has the Determination to go all the way remains to be seen and yes Taylor I believe gets plenty of write ups

His fitness is probably why he's on the wing. As for Manly's discipline, why'd they take Jamil Hopoate back, and is he still at the club?

Yes, thats right, tough kid as well, I was told he played all the trials last season with a hairline fracture to the jaw, then played a school rugby match which completely broke his jaw out for 8 weeks, pulled the bands out early to the horror of his Jaw Specialist so he wouldn't drop too much weight as he wanted to make the NSW Schoolboys team for the Australian Schoolboys in Cairns. He didn't make it in time unfortunately for the NSW State of Origin Team but made the Schoolboys teams for NSW and Australian Schoolboys and was selected as the best player for the NSWCIS team as rare as hens teeth a winger gets picked for that award.

I can't see Jamile coming back to Manly, he such a great kid underneath and has so much talent, he is hanging around with Bad people, still has court procedings
