Fans on social media have had a field day with the news that Wests Tigers forward Curtis Sironen has signed with Manly. Son of Wests Tigers legend Paul, Curtis struggled in 2016 spending the majority of the year in reserve grade:

The best thing I can say about Curtis Sironen is as a kid, his Dad was my favourite player.#GoManly
