News Manly hooker Apisai Koroisau poised to sign three-year deal with Canterbury

[zappa]

I’m pretty happy about this, certainly strengthens a position we’ve been lacking in for ages.
I just hope that with his injury history, the 3rd year is in the clubs favour and we didn’t break the bank.

Going off Finchie’s comments, sounds like we may have. Time will tell.

Yh, Queenslanders aren't Aussie

True, we're Gods!

The funny things is that if the bulldogs supposedly stated that Ramien had to fit into bulldogs DNA and culture etc
I don’t know how or if any likelihood curtis Scott would pass the dickehead test

His own family kicked him or moved him out of syd for fear of losing him to crime or jail etc

Scott is a absolute weapon on the piss. It’s only a matter of time before he’s involved in some major off field incident.

What you guys think of Josh Hoffman for a 1 or 2 year contract would be cheap. At least to get us through next season

Three years is a concern for me with his injury history.

Api was very good with Souths, started off well with Manly and has progressively had less impact in attack when he plays. He's still a great defender and I hope he can stay injury free and we can see more in attack from him.

He is a hooker under Des... Ballin, Ennis, lichaa or any other hooker Des has had were always limited in what his game plan allowed.

 

[KLil]

Fuck him and I’d pay Scott a reasonable deal.

People forget how good he is.

Yes please. Not world beaters but fucking at least something to be excited about

I see Scott as an erratic footballer without much thought process in his footy... His like a Josh Reynolds without the ball playing in my opinion. Would much rather a Staggs who looks like a world beater in the making.

Would love him. Though also disagree re Scott

Api is an awesome signing and one that I have been pushing for many months ago. Glad that its sorted.

We should go for Josh Schuster next. This kid is a gun and doubt Manly can afford him too. W

 

[Cosmo24]

Will wait for the official announcement from the club. Not sure if I’d be more excited about Api coming or Lichaa leaving

What a turnaround from our salary cap mess.

The only real weak points we still have is a centre (assuming we don't get Scott or ramian) and one half.

Excited about next season!!!!

 

[hayes]

Not seizer no

He played for berala bears same Coggers family who still play there.

 

[B-Train]

Just hope the figures being mentioned aren’t true.
Trust me
You guys would blow up
Here’s a hint
He was on 550k at the manly scum

Those are cringeworthy figures. 3 years at that price would be a gigantic risk.

Its a double win for sure.

The only doubt is the value of the contract (length is ok, he finishes at 30) and hope the Andersons have learnt the lessons from the past. If they were smart and knew he didnt want to leave Sydney they should not have budged. Time will tell.

At 500K he is a bargain. But I suspect he was signed for a lot more than that.

@finchie
Is #3 a back or a forward? That's all we need to know.
