IF we got both n played them outside Pritchard that would potentially be the biggest most physical left side in SL. Ever.
If that comes to be a few right side defences would be having some sleepless nights!!

Would be like when we scored all our tries by Manu offloading to Yeamo or Briscoe but triple the power

Manu of 5/6 years ago was better than Pritchard now, or at least more dangerous in attack. Briscoe is also better than Vidot. It would still be an exciting combination though.

No chance, Pritchard still looks great in the NRL and has been one of the Bulldogs best players this year, Manu never really did it the NRL, Pritchard is a class above Manu,

Not seen enough of Vidot to make a judgement, always hard to tell from Youtube clips.

Pritchard is a class player, and is better than Manu in certain areas, but Manu in his prime was a tackle busting machine. If you are expecting Pritchard to be as devastating a ball carrier as Willie then you will be disappointed.

The main reason Manu never really made it in the NRL is that he was sacked for beating up a nightclub owner, and ended up with no real option but to come to England.

Pritchard is a far greater player than manu. Manu much more dynamic. But nearly 2 stone lighter. Not as good hands and as much as I liked/loved manu he was very erratic. Some games he totally vanished. Others devastating. Pritchard even on an off day will be a presence.
Vidot made nearly four thousand meters in carries last year. Briscoe was v good and freaky strong but vidot is still gonna make meters and finish every chance close up to the line.
Inu n yeaman wouldn't even be worth the comparison.
If this combo was to come off it would be more of a problem for defences than manu/yeaman/briscoe ever was.
Plus the engine room in front looks better than what the former had so if we're already moving forward that'll help as manu got a ball shoved in his hand and asked to do miracles a lot of the time. Also the half supplying would be better than what they had mostly

That was by the last club he played for, he also failed to make a impact with his previous two NRL sides before that incident, I agree he he a slightly different type of player, but overall he is a much better player than Manu.

Manu's best season for Hull was 2012, were he was the same age as Pritchard will be for Hull.

Wouldn't disagree with that, it was the 3 times the power comment I objected to. Manu and Briscoe are two of the best players we've had in the Superleague era, and Yeaman back in the day was a good centre too.
