So...where does Turbo go and more importantly, how do the Roosters justify this one?

Because Turbo will be on a minimum wage, extended squad deal, just hoping to crack in to the side should Tedesco, Manu, Suallii, RTS, Folau and SBW all get injured.

I don't think we should try and get Turbo, I think it would be horrendous recruitment actually. One million dollars a season minimum, last time we tried that it went to shit and we've only now just started to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Tommy is a great player, one of the elite but he's also proven to be injury prone and we've already recruited an above average fullback.

As for Seibs, you'd be extremely nervous if you were a Manly fan.

If we finish lower than Seibs next year I just might pack it in

Really though, Turbo isn't worth the risk. What are his injury stats? Was he even completed a full season?

We are a marquee player away from being legit premiership contenders and he would fill that slot immediately

There's a salary cap and ours is not in a spot to buy a million dollar player.

Seibold has worked at Manly before .
I think he might have some tactics to deal with DCE and Co .

I think he worked there when Barrett was coach... and that didnt exactly go well in regards to the playing group

Tommy is staying put .
Moving from one Nthn beach to another is not as simple as it might apparently seem .

I dont think they will release either of them, i just think its amusing Wayne is making the comment as soon as Seibs takes over. He couldnt handle Wayne last time.
