@garry yeah who needs tackling breaks, offloads and general intimidation on the field when you have Luke Garner. 

That is a little bit of a strawman argument.

Perfect description of Garner .....strawman ....

Any chance we came in with a final offer which beat Manly’s?

I can't see that happening. It's only a loss because our edge backrow stocks are so low.

Agree - I really only saw Kelma as a solid back up. Wouldn't win a game but probably wouldn't lose it either, great effort player and while he is the ideal support for a top level back rower he certainly isn't worth over-spending on. It's just that we'll have to cross our fingers again in the hope that a solution comes along.

Yeah it’s a tough one on Tuilagi, he’s certainly shown promise whilst being here in both reserves and first grade. But the one other aspect of why we should have locked him up is his time at Melbourne. Absolutely priceless in my eyes. The club made a blunder by letting go Momorovski aswell after he had a season with them. When will the club learn??

Tuilagi was the best overall forward in last nights trial in my view (LL closely behind). Not sure how we can let this guy go after losing LL for next year. Seem to play big minutes and made a big impact on defence

Ive been amazed at the improvement in Kelma. He looks a future star IMO. His footwork is fantastic. Looks like Manly might have seen it earlier than the rest of us. Im still hoping there is a good reason that no one has announced it.

My understanding is that it’s a done deal and he was made an offer that we didn’t want to match/better.
