Like Liam Marshall, Bevan French, Sione Katoa, Regan Grace, Tom Briscoe, Jake Mamo, Matty Russell, Kevin Naiqama and Tesi Niu - there's just no place in rugby league for these sized players anymore. The game's passed them by.

Was listening to a triple M podcast a while back and sounded like there was a power struggle between Des and the Manly board. Only tends to be one winner in that case

The game has passed you by if you consider Tom Briscoe as small Tom is 1.83 and over 100 kilos
There will always be the odd exception in the wing role but most top wings now are tall and strong as well as having pace.
