    He had also just come back from covid with losing like 5kgs and wasn’t ready to play. He was crook as hell with covid and should have had another week off.

    Opinion Where is the Harper brigade?

    Of course having a quality team around you lifts your play. Parker and Harper have been doing the job that has been asked of them - to defend. I think they have been givens bit of a hard rap - but that is the nature of the beast. People only remember a players last game. What I will say is that...

    Opinion Where is the Harper brigade?

    He has an average of 82% efficiency. Yep had a bad game on Friday but other than that he has been bloody solid for Manly. People jump on players so quickly when they have a bad game and forget the good that the players have done. He didn’t get game time with us so moved and has now played over...

    They don’t make the tackles for him or the tackle and line breaks. I think Harper is noted as one of the top one in one tacklers this season. He has improved for sure - always helps when you have a great team with great players around you. I think he is thriving under Des.

    Harper has had good games when Turbo hasn’t played. I think his first few games where he cemented his potential that right side worked much better. I agree that TB is the key play maker but there are still guys doing their jobs well. Hasn’t Harper been in team of the week for last two weeks and...

    Harper

    100% agree the club should have kept him - but he was being overlooked. He had a good pre-season and played well in the nines but Pay didnt utilise him instead played guys out of position. This change for Harper may well be the true making of him

    Yeah but didn't Hasler play a part of getting him over there. Remember the club picked him up while still at school in NZ

    Harper

    That may be true but a lot of players make a start by someone else's misfortune. He couldn't get a looking at the Bulldogs with Smith getting game time ahead of him. I think it's great he gets a chance with Manly as it gets him out there, he gets seen and puts his hand up for the starting line...

    I dont think so but he will have to prove himself. At least if he does prove himself he will get game time as Pay never really gave him the opportunity. Des know Harper - didnt he bring him over when he was 15. Just saying.

    I'm a fan of Harper and have watched his progress from a young age. He has a good head on his shoulders - I'm sure he will get game time. Good luck to him. If anything he will want to nail the position so the club regret him leaving IMO

    Well I say good on Harper and if he signed before Covid the deal must have been in the pipeline for a while. Guess it explains not being named at all this season. Think its piss poor that the club wouldnt release him immediately tho as they clearly arent going to give him game time.

    I dont believe Pay will put Harper in. Should he - most definitely. Shit I reckon he should have been in FG last year. YEP he is off contract at end of season and if I was him I'd be gone in a heartbeat if it meant I got to play FG. He deserves to he in FG for sure.

    Opinion The R Smith Centre move/experiment

    End of the day. These boys get damned no matter what they do. Harper was talked about like Averillo is last year. Harper must have 'some flair' or the goods to be named as the centre of the nsw cup last year. Okunbor does some bloody great work but gets hammered when something goes wrong...

    Il have to disagree with you on that :). I said flashy not flare. He gets penalties, one on one strips and can run the ball.

    Opinion The R Smith Centre move/experiment

    Harper may not be all 'flashy' but he gets the work done. I think he flies under the radar a little because of this but his stats are good. He's strong in both defense and attack and is deceivingly quick.

    I'm not the biggest fan of him going to centre to be honest. I think he should be on the wing. Averillo looked flashy in the trials but think he needs time to bulk up a bit more before being cemented into FG. No surprises that I'm a fan of Harpers. He is a workhorse and gets the job done and...
