But it did seem funny when he said the reason we did not hand Steve a contract is we did not want to tie up a quota spot but he also said we where looking overseas for a 6 which would indicate a quota player , so there maybe something in the Manu rumour hope not and I hope Manu is fine been great for us, come on wire at weekend and we get Melbourne what a great fixture that would be im buzzing

I reckon Radford could knock him into shape, but I suppose we've been shipping out players that have discipline issues.
Still think Kelly could be a really decent player in the right environment.
