Any mention of a prop from manly...........?

[Tigerade]

In he Canberra times it says a six figure fee has been paid, so that's surely 100k minimum.

No - not quite. A six figure sum would be 100K in aussie dollars. About 62K in our money.

[Dazzyb]

Fair play on that. Never considered the exchange rate lol

[old cas lass]

Just over 61'000 English pounds.

[Dazzyb]

Just had a look on the official manly site.
Here's the props who play for them now.

Addin Fonda-Blake
Brenton Lawrence
Darcy lussick prop/2nd row
Lloyd perrett
Martin taupau
Jake trbojevic prop/lock

So there you go.

Thanks for that mate I've just sent it to my stalker mate haha he seems to be pretty much on the mark, accept he told me they were lining up tom burgess in April. he was close but no cigar in that one haha

[Mysterio]

Wasnt Steadman about £140 k all those years ago?

£175K I think. It was a world record. Crooks was £150K.

Tribunal set it at £145k plus £15k if selected for GB

IE He cost £170k

I remember Featherstone putting together a video of Steadman highlights to present to the tribunal to justify the asking price, which convinced the tribunal to agree with Fev's valuation.

Someone was crap at maths surely 145k + 15k is 160k?

How can you never of heard of him if you dont know the name ?

Just say it's a prop from manly. I've never heard of him before and can't recall the name. If waddle is announced on Monday the source has some credibility, so either take it or send it right back

He may be onto something, first part has happened

[Dazzyb]

The the prop is from the NRL but he's more from the mould of a JSL, not a big name. Hopefully another gold nugget Powell has mined from nowhere. Still trying to get a name off him .. may not be manly after all

not tom burgess then?

Sam tagatasee Is the prop to be announced next month . I watch the NRL and don't know all the players by name but apparently his sister or wife is related somehow to Jesse and he's apparently a big guy

[tallguyx]

Sam tagatasee I've been told. I watch the NRL and don't know all the players by name but apparently his sister or wife is related somehow to Jesse and he's apparently a big guy

Good solid forward. Would be a good signing. Guessing he's also friends with a few of our other players as millington would've been in same Cronulla team.

some of that will do nicely

and at 6'4" and 110kgs - "its gonna hurt in the morning son"

[tallguyx]

Just looked he joined Cronulla when Millington left either way
Very promising. Just to be linked with people from high calibre teams shows you how far we have come.

You seem quite confident it's "slamming" Sam tagataese.
