Your Say

A very good player for Manly, QLD and Australia. Ever since you made your debut you have not gone through a season without making the finals series but overall one of the most creative halfbacks at the present moment.

Cherry has been a fantastic player for Manly throughout his rugby league career. He is now improving his leadership on the field and turning into the strong captain Manly needs.
