And if JWH is suspended, and Collins is rested due to SOO, May should be up for big minutes Rd.15.

Looks like Crokers concussion issues might be serious as well.

They updated Croker to neck in the casualty ward.

A tiger mid still seems the better option for rd 16 & 19

yeah recall it was mentioned recently that crokers problems were neck and not concussion related.

sea eagles play 16 and 19 as well so if simpkin moved across and played big mins.. cashout time

Brent Read reporting now that Simpkin will be named for Manly tomorrow

JWH fined LMAO

Awaiting Rabbits response

Cam Murray would be in the blues squad SOO 2 / 3 you'd think

Going to make it interesting between Hands and Simpkin then for cash out

Simpkins has better bye coverage but Hands cheaper and (IMO) a better season long prospect if he keeps the 60-80 role

Both have question marks over role etc.

Shame there's barely any top tier guns available. Otherwise

just depends who you other Hookers are.

I have Brailey and Grant so Simpkin cover for Round 16.

Hands is good if you need a Hooker in 19 or half coverage and you are all good for round 16.

Most certainly waiting and seeing on Simpkin with a 48 BE.

Manly Warringah Sea Eagles have today signed hooker Jake Simpkin for the remainder of the season, effective immediately.

Simpkin has also been signed by Manly for the 2025 and 2026 seasons.

Also worth waiting to hear any injury updates on Croker. If he’s out for the season I think Simpkin a easy pickup

I was actually looking to bring in cook for his bye coverage and as a keeper. Looks to have 80 min role back with new coach and scoring like we know he can

BE of 48, im going to wait a week and see how he shares with Lawton

Croker was hoping to be back this week, but looking unlikely. Doesn’t sound long term but hard to tell with concussions.

Iirc correctly he played 80 cuz Mamouzelas was required to fill in for Wighton’s failed HIA.

It was mentioned a few weeks ago that mamoz will be on the bench all year.. some games cook will play 80 some not. he looks a decent buy tbh, but it could backfire.
