there are reports in the telegraph that Brenton Lawrence, Peta Hiku and Jamie Burher are been forced out by Manly to accommodate Dylan Walker.

I think Bulldogs should make a play for Peta Hiku if this is true.

Hiku/Hoppa are solid additions.

Walker is a gun addition.

Buher is meant to be going to Knights (he is rubbish never rated him, imagine only clubs like Titans/Tigpies/Knights would be silly enough to take his deal).

Lawrence was a good prop for Manly. I can only assume his injury is much worse to let him go. With Myles, Trob likely starting it also makes him a bit more surplus for them.

A fullback that can double as a 5/8 FUK YEAH! DES is a dick if he doesn't do it.

Wasn't the only reason he got picked for NZ, because big Manu was injured?
I don't think so considering he played as a half on the tour if anything Rona was only on the tour because Manu got injured. I don't even know if he got a game?

Near the end of last season I saw Peta Hiku at fullback for Manly and he was very impressive. IMO BMoz is still finding his feet at fullback and is not playing at his best. I think a more potent back line presuming all are fit, would be:

Hiku
BMoz
JMoz
Roma
Philips

I would love to have hiku as our number 1 and bmoz to his preferred position, hiku still young and hasn't really had the chance to settle in one position, he gets shifted around in manlys backline too much. Would much rather him then hopoate or perret combined

I'd play hiku at right centre
has good size and footwork and can cover multiple positions in the backline

Hiku seems like a Luke Burt type of player. Reliable and able to cover a number of positions but not the gamebreaker that we need to win a premiership.

Bmoz was the best FB in the Comp before he got injured

they want to offload him to free up room for a huge play at Josh Jackson.
