Just listening to the ABC - they reckon Curtis Sironen will be gone from Manly at the end of the year (along with about 8 other players), but they're keen to keep Gos.

Just Tino and Fogarty playing for me today. Going to be death-riding Fifita again. Here's hoping that any tries and linebreaks stem from Fogarty involvement to soften the blow!

I would say it is because Sironen will be on a bit more money than Gos.

Throwing a nice chunk of $$$ towards Jaydn Su'A apparently.

They’d do a damn sight better to find someone willing to pay to help them offload the Turbo/Jurbo combo of expensive nothing. Do it fast enough they might even avoid the wooden spoon next year.
But this is what happens when rich families of morons run teams. Dragons, Titans, Manly... too much marquee boast-buying and not enough footy professionalism.

Manly are paying like a million each to the Turbo's and DCE. A decent amount to Taupau and Sironen. The rest $50 and a hot pie voucher.
Their team is very unbalanced.

Take your fantasy goggles off for a second mate. The Turbo brothers have been immense for Manly.

"Have been". One is a past it lock, and the other is on the sidelines more than on the field.
Milford was great for the Broncos in 2015...

They're going to need a heap of new players if they really are trying to get rid of everyone claimed. Taupau, Siro, Foran, Boyle, Walker, Parker...
Lots of holes to fill

Manly should be moving on Taupau before Jurbo.
With AFB moving on instead of stepping up he has regressed. Should be a senior leader in that team but isn't performing this year

I don't think either signings are the reason they are struggling. Milford, Mbye, Hunt, Foran (when he was at doggies), Morgan, Ash Taylor, and Pearce are all much worse million dollar players. Yeah Jake probably shouldn't be on 900k but not severely overpriced at all.
Turbo is a proper freak. The Eagles have won 73% of games when Trbo has played in the new Hasler era. Just been super unlucky with his hammies

Manly as a club were left behind 10 years or so ago. Training facilities, junior grounds, change rooms, stadium size, field quality etc are back in the 90s. You should see the away sheds at brookie

The old Magpie and Bears guard will be right there with you in that thinking.

At some point it's not bad luck. 2015, 2019, 2020, 2021 - all less than half the season played.

Throw in a box of ciggies and they might be able to induce Cliffy Lyons to come out of retirement for that package.
