I believe we will see a far better game with Manly as NRl Champions as they play a more open exciting brand of RL.

Already lost Croker and Menzies from that side too that I know of. Although to be fair, leeds have also lost gareth ellis.

Just Menzies Voodoo. Although Matai might have an operation in the close season. Irrespective, they play good RL.

I thought michael croker had signed for a super league side, not too sure if its catalans.

He has Voodoo but he was Melbourne. He is at Hull next season.

Manly are losing an ageing reserve forward Luke Williamson to Quins and they have signed a kiwi teenage man mountain from Parra who plays on the wing.

I've always said this EW, I think the Aussie teams always seem more decimated than ours from the squads that has won their respective GF.
