He has been a bit player of late, suffering from a range of injuries, and it is clear other players are more fa- voured nowadays, but it is easy to forget it is only a few years ago we were celebrating Manu becoming the first NRL player to score 10 tries or more every year for a decade, and that he was International Winger of the year in 2008 after the Kiwis’ won the Rugby League World Cup.
