NRL: Ex-Bulldogs player Jackson Topine has launched legal proceedings against the club after the wrestling saga that dominated headlines last year.

It’s the big question plaguing the Roosters seven rounds into the NRL season, how can they get the most out of Joseph Manu ?

That team were faced with a similar equation, with veteran Anthony Minichiello at fullback and livewire Roger Tuivasa-Sheck in the outside backs. “I’d love to see some evolution in the way that they attack, bringing Joey Manu into that sort of role. They’ve got their halves a bit disjointed at the moment.

Shane Flanagan’s Red V outfit are firing on all cylinders after seven rounds and delivered their best performance to date to down the Warriors in Round 7. “They are in the fight against the likes of Melbourne and that, but they are still just losing the games. They aren’t in a fight for a grand final appearance at the moment.”

He even went as far to say it’s the first time he’s considered Tedesco’s fullback spot to be under pressure.“They are clunky, they are just not in a groove, there’s hesitation in the ballrunners, they started the season so well,” Kent said.
