I'd bet you 10p I was the first person to name Manu on here.

hmmmm

will have to do a quick search of when I mentioned it.

10p says it was me

He'll be a great addition, hope it comes off

www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-league/17745027 They seem to really want him to stay.

thats sounds to me like they're resound to losing him. They've paid big for Ellis so wont have offered him the earth

That's how I read it to.

Seeing as sia has been one our best players this year if not our best player then willie Manu ain't doing to bad either www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... eason=2012 Also compares pretty well to what the pie chompers say is best backrow in super league www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... eason=2012

I have no doubt that Manu is a top player, but we curretnly have an unbalanced squad, with a shed load of backrowers, including TP and Sia, who offer similar things to him. We must have a list of priorities for the players we want, I cant see a back rower being a high priority, especially on big bucks. I'd sooner see the money go on a prop, scrum half, centre, or genuine winger.

Flannery is leaving and needs replacing so I do see the need to sign Manu. He brings something different that we ain't got

Manu is a top player and my opinion would walk into any side. I would love him to stay but if you do get him, well done and enjoy

We do need another prop, maybe 2. But and this is the crunch. Given the choice of say Manu a 2nd rower or O'Meley a prop from Hull also OOC. Which brings more to the party??



Also just because we are looking at a backrower, it does not mean we are not looking for props.



I think the scrum half situation will not change until Brown is in charge. Do we really want to tie Browns hands in terms of half backs anymore than they already have been. So sign another halfback would mean brown could have no halfbback choices in his 3 years at Saints. He will already be struggling with Lance, Lomax till 2015 and Gaskell and Wheeler on 2 and 3 year deals.



I know we all want to fix everything now, but you can change the team from year to year, I'd imagine Manu would be a short term deal.
