Long answer... he's an NZ & Tongan international who has heaps of potential. But when you can't get a run in first grade for the Cowboys, you know you're not going hard enough.
he is 25 played for the rabbits from 2005-2008 and the cowboys from 2009-2010 he also got into the tonga training squad for the 2008 world cup made the 24 man squad.
Just some info on him but i haven't seen him play.
My long answer -
Nobody has really seen him play because he can't or won't apply himself.
He's big and strong and has talent but has major difficulty cutting it in the top grade.
Waste of money on what could be a lot of potential but does not produce.
Should have saved myself time and just said long answer refer Dan
Just remember though that Joe Galuvao couldnt make 1st grade at the Rabbits before coming to the Eels.
I actually think that Manase will go well at the Eels. From what I have seen of him, he runs hard but does not have many minutes in him. Would make a good impact player and if he sets his mind to it, may push for a bench spot in 2011.
Whats he been doing with the cowboys ? no team training ?...just eating pineapples & coconuts..... laying on the beach.....if that's the case why did they sign him in the 1st place ?
yes... he's very good considering he is taking the 24th or 25th spot in our squad and most likely on peanuts (similar to Lowrie and Robson).
FUrthermore, with Ben Smith and Hindy in the bvack row he will complement them nicely if ever we need him. He is certainly a first grade player, albeit a fring player.
"First game against them the wingers both made poor defensive issues to let in tries. Plus Samrani got burnt by McLean, hope thats been addressed. we were in that game till late, gave away dumb penalties.
I think Simonsson will come in late"
"My simplistic take. I also still wear some knitted sock slippers my mum made for me in the 1960s. Helps my bond with the authenticity of my dear mums creation"
"Good responses in this blog NOS. Certainly, we have progressed through technology, but at what cost to human identity, authenticity and soul presence, which are so important in preserving fundamental emotional needs tying us to a family culture.…"

Send him straight to England.
