He played for nearly 2 and a half years at 9 for manly when they signed orford and excelled there!!

Odd picture. He appears to be smiling. Never seen him do that before.*

*having said that, seeing as I had a pop at Matt King was laughing the other week I suppose I should leave it.

This is what some of us have been saying for a fair while on here that Monaghan whilst at Manly turned into a far better hooker than he ever was a scrum half at the Raiders, if this is true that he is homesick then to me he should do the decent thing and mutually end his contract with us as we can`t afford to carry any passengers that don`t want to be here.

We could play Bridge and Briers as the halfbacks for the rest of the season and then Tony Smith can look for a fresh half back pairing for 2010, Michael Monaghan has done nothing anyway to warrant a regular starting place and its time we freshened up the half backs with someone like Chris Bridge to partner Lee Briers as thats about our best option if Monaghan wasn`t in the 17.

we're not happy with him, so it's all equal

What a piece of lazy journalism - it says nothing really.

It will probably get reverse rerported in the UK press and then we have a mountain created from what is not even a molehill !!

Ditto.

Can we think outisde the sqaure and get hold of a player like Michael Dobson who has all the ability and potential but with none of the (undeserved?)reputation?

I can imagine we will soon hear an interview in the Guardian with Monaghan or King saying "I'm going nowhere, I intend to see my contract with the Wolves out", because nobody in the NRL can pick them up on their current wages.
