Yup, the hero worship of Manu by some is weird, he's good, sometimes great, but he's hardly Mal Meninga.

I agree with your sentiments, however it is a short lived career. I knew an FC player (who was/is a big FC) fan and I remember asking him if he would go to Dobbins, he said if the money was more attractive then yes , he explained it is no different from any other worker leaving their job for better pay etc.Professional rugby players are no different to the rest of us, they have to make a living, difference is they have to do it in a very short period of time.

We don't know how much he offered....Bombers idea of astronomical may differ to that of Browns, or indeed yours or mine. Reckon it means a lot though

He has been very loyal for the club?
His first loyalty is to himself and his family, especially this time round.

No, that was Mason after listening to friend O'Meley's whisperings. Naughty ogre. No coindidence it was Mrs O'Meley that had to sort out the plane tickets to Toulon.

| The Hull offer is there it should have a deadline on it If any player want to go or think he is getting a better offer else were then good luck to him .I say let move on and let P Gentle do his job and look for other players that want to play for our Club .The last things we and the Club want is things hanging around for ever .No one person is bigger then Hull FC

I agree, Manu isn't THAT good anyway, he's a solid player, let him go wherever and feather his nest.

| if he had signed for Hull we would all know by now so I really do think he has decided to go somewhere else. Good luck to him I think hes a great player and will be gutted to lose him but as you say, no player is bigger than the club.

He is a very good player actually, but he will be 33 next years and to offer a 3 year contract maybe asking for trouble.
Anyway with Ellis arriving next season, we'll be more than ok in that area.
