Horo and Tonga sign with Manly

[eozsmiles]

Reckon the Eels are taking care of some of the coin. Remember the Titans are paying $200k a year to dump Prince and get Coal train. Reckon Sticky Stuart would take a hit to get Izzy and the ham Hock on board and dump these two nuffies. These deals probably came up pretty quick now that Izzy has made his call. So if the Eels are desperate to get him they might have had to do a deal. Sounds like one of those deals that has worked out well for everyone. Nobody signs Esi Tonga unless there is a kicker, right?

Interested to see how Horo goes if he was fit and running off some decent halves.

I agree Poupou.

Makes you wonder why they just didn't keep Harrison for backup. He's cheaper and better. Stupid Manly lol.

They bought Horo to replace T-Rex. He's no backup. Remember he played that good game once? Heaps of potential and he's only 27!

 

[Rogue.9]

I though Horo signed for the storm a few months ago.

 

[eozsmiles]

The internet/twitter reckons Willie isn't going to England and Hock ain't coming to Parra.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I heard he really wants to play alongside Gareth Hock.

I agree Poupou.

Hahaha, as a manly fan this is hilarious.

Yeah Manly is a stupid club. They always let go of good players and pay overs for bums. <Insert whatever smily you like here>

Well you did let go of Lussick and Harrison, and then sign Horo. So you're probably right.

Looks like Cleal's replacement at Manly is Rod Reddy.

So esi was sacked not released:

. He's now the second player to be shown the door since the arrival of Stuart and Edwards, following Esi Tonga's sacking in October.

What was he sacked for ?

 

[strider]

its the telegraph - maybe their use of words is a bit more loose than normal?

That's being a bit easy on him mate, he was really, really, really, really, really crap.

Well, they'd need a better reason than that to sack him mid-contract...unless we want to pay out his contract.

I don't think he was sacked. At the time I seem to recall reading that he was released to join Manly.

he was seen to talk to DF once. :sarcasm:

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Then he should have known better. ;-)

Shame about Horo, if he kicks on at Manly he will be a very good player. Never really did so here. Very happy to see the back of Esi

I would have liked to see how Horo went under a decent coach.
