Keep your hands off. You've already go the Beaver plus Glenn Hall to come we are not you're feeder club or is seen as Menzies is basically carrying the rest of the team having another 2 will lighten his workload.

Whilst you're here, what do you Manly fans make of Le'strange?

Could this be part of a deal which sees Burgess going the other way?

L'Estrange is out of contract, so you'd hope not!!

No, because Le'strange is OOC at the end of this season.

His surname is actually Trange. Les is his middle name.

Don't confused the matter further, I've already seen several different spellings of his name on this thread!

Maybe we should christen him Les though, got to be easier then shouting c'mmon L'Estrange!!

What is actually the pronunciation?

I think we could go with the Manly nickname for him : Beefy Heathy.

He's been banned for 3 games for a spear tackle so if we got this bloke we might not miss Newton after all. Anyway if we had him, Craig Wing and Burgess in the same team next year we'd have the best looking team in the league and might get a few more lasses and/or homosexual/bisexual men coming to games. Here's the evidence http://hotaussiefootyplayersshirtless.blogspot.com/2008/11/heath-lestrange.html If we could tap into the pink pound we'd have it made financially wise plus we'd have the best one line put downs to combat cheap shots from Leeds and Saints fans (those two clubs really do have the lowest form of wit).

I know this has been discussed before but I still can't remember.. if L'Estrange is eligible France does that mean he isn't a full quota player?

Is he elligable to play for France, or are we just presuming so because of his name? Because I don't think Graham le Saux or Matt le Tissier were.

Since when has that mattered in Rugby? Football rules are much tougher.

Fa'asavalu for example is hardly a good English name!
