Joseph Manu makes official call on NRL future.

The Sydney Roosters have confirmed that Joseph Manu will leave the club at the end of the season to pursue a new opportunity in a new code

“I have cherished my time playing rugby league for the Roosters so it's been a tough decision to leave the club and NRL," said Manu.

I wonder who the Roosters are going to Target with Sualii and Manu leaving? Hope they don't go after Xerri.

They will be silly not to go after Schiller. Related to Mullins, has links to both roosters and Canberra

Roosters are done.
Never....See Joey will be back to Bondi.
He's not gonna fit through any Japanese doors, beds will be half his size, Japanese are delicate eaters and def meals to small for him.

Nah he just won't fit in and he'll be back.

Maybe go after Jorgo from Union cause his dad played for us.
There are some handy union players NRL clubs could target.

Good money
Easy work
Different culture
Anonymity

What's not to love?
Depends if has young family, or planning on having one. Be extremely difficult being overseas with limited support and no family/friends to assist

Billy Smith was coming good, but he's so injury prone.. be funny if they got Latrell back as a centre.

Dom Young is a great winger but I wonder if they'd consider trying him at centre and playing his brother on the wing.
