"yeah thanks guys, I was surprised, i just don't see him ball playing like a walker, Hopgood, DeBellin, etc. That surprised me. Mind you none are as good as Walker at it, from lock."
"Twiddle has more upside being able to play wing, FB and 5/8, so I'd have him on the wings in NSW Cup over Tago. "
"Not a fan at lock, he runs a good line and makes a good mobile prop, but I've never seen him play lock, so who knows?"
"I agree but from my understanding he has only trained at fullback for the past 2 years so not sure if the club are considering to explore his utlity value."

Exactly right Phil, glad eels fans are slowly waking up to this imposter.
On the way to getting in his ear ... B.A should tap him on the shoulder instead !
2 things
1) he has been our most consistent forward this year (and is so most years). He NEVER gets driven back, rarely misses a tackle and has the fastest play the ball of the squad.
2) he takes the multiple hit ups simply because the other soft options won’t put their hands up to have a go. That’s actually called leadership.
And then you get a blog like this criticising it!
I saw him get driven back several times against the raiders. what he NEVER does is offload or bend the line or trouble the defensive line.
But every defender knows he will never offload so tackling him is easy
I think fans a very harsh on Mannah , reminds me a lot of Ben Kennedy in the way he inspires the players around him .
Good to have you back Fong! Where you been?
