Fulton or anyone in his position shouldn't be there. It's obviously an oversight position to ensure the manager doesn't go AWOL and pick a ridiculous squad, but who is overseeing the numpty that is Bozo? Buhrer?? Williams?? If these blokes weren't playing for Manly, any other bloke who was overseeing the selections would have said NO. Furthermore, what questions is Bozo asking to be comfortable in any conclusion that Creagh should be selected.....again?? He's not up to Origin and it's been proven.
If he's just going to campaign for his own selections to be in the squad in return for allowing Ricky to select his favourites, then he should be taken off the NSWRL payroll and just let the manager pick the team he wants. If he doesn't select a team that wins he'll be out of a job anyway.
For the record....
OUT: Buhrer, Creagh, Farah, Williams (until he gets some game time for Manly under his belt)
IN: Sims, Mannah, Watmough, Hinchcliffe.
Bird & Lewis can both fill the utility role if required. no need for surplus requirements here. half the task of winning a game of rugby league is achieved when you you win the the battle in the middle A team needs strong men and big boppers to achieve this, not the flawed strategy Ricky took into Game 3 last year and got smacked.
In saying all that, Go the BLUES!!!!
