Since Punters probably will never get their own thread, this is a good place to opine about Mann.

i am not married to him, but we did spend a fifth on him. he has the leg, and he can place it when he needs to.
but for whatever reason, he has some really mediocre distances & hang time.

do we keep an eye out for a vet who gets cut? we did get an upgrade when we signed Morstead.
or do we allow Mann to improve the distance and hang time numbers?
