My Premier League team would be this:-

01. Sean Meaney
02. Willie Bishop
03. Sean Dalton
04. Wes Tillot
05. Mitch Creary
06. Clint Halden
07. Aaron Groom
08. Glenn Hall
09. Matt Ballin
10. Mailangi Styles
11. Mark Offerdahl
12. Adam Cuthbertson
13. Jason Wells

14. J P Cherry
15. Sione Finefeuiaki
16. Phil Moorwood
17. Jack Afamasanga

I personally think the problem with Manly's Premier League team, is there's too many Premier League quality players if you get my meaning.

I mean The Storm for example had Jake Webster, Scott Hill, Ian Donnelly, Billy Slater, Ben Cross, Chris Walker etc playing premier league at some time this year for The Bears...

Shows you the difference in depth.

And they couldn't even find an appropriate replacement for BK, yet Mayer comes out and suggests we are close to the salary cap???

Bob Fulton suggested we didn't have the personel to match it with the big guns, and now we have a team in 1st grade that will consist of players like Williamson, Rose, Bryant and co. that aren't exactly the biggest name players. I personally think we may be heavily front loading. If not, we are paying overs (like monaghan on $240k per annum !!!)
