    Breakout Star of 2024

    I like the look of Aitasi James and Clayton Faulalo too but due to the fact I think we are a prop or two short I really hope we see Jacob Sykes progress.

    Is Jaxson Paulo a starter

    Agree 100%. By my calculations we have 29 spots filled in our top 30 with Nathan Brown now added. My preference would be another aggressive young prop to round out the squad but if not I’d be inclined to give Faulalo a shot. Looks a real talent that kid so hopefully he can kick on.

    Jamie Humphreys

    Thought just the one year was a little strange too. Also, if Humphries is now considered a hooker then who are we grooming for the 7 after DCE? Latu Fainu would be good…oh wait! 🤷‍♂️

    Who do we bring in

    I think we are desperate for another hard running, damaging prop. You also didn’t mention Jake Arthur and I think he may have a future as a lock. But the prop position worries me a little. We have Paseka, Jake, Sipley, Aloiai and Lodge but the last two finished this season injured and Lodge...

    Eddie Jones

    With Eddie Jones now sacked as England rugby coach I would not be surprised to see him pop up at Manly. Let me put 2 and 2 together (and probably get 5)… 1. Seibold was his assistant at England for around 18 months so has a relationship. 2. Jones has previously stated a desire to coach in the...

    Players for next year.

    Might just fall outside the 3 years but it’s dumb that we allowed Barrett to let Hynes walk away.

    Suli being circled?

    I seem to be in the minority here but I like Suli and hope he stays. I also fear his departure could unsettle some other players like the Fainu's, Schuster and Olakua'tau as they are all best mates. I wouldn't be surprised if clubs circling Suli also see this as an avenue to lure the others...

    Tim Simona - any news on his playing status

    I understand your point but what about the likes of Zane Tetevano, Matt Lodge, David Fifita, Nelson Asofa-Solomona etc who have arguably carried out worse crimes than Simona. He made a mistake but haven't we all. I'd give the bloke a second chance be it at Manly or elsewhere as he's paid a heavy...

    Shaun Johnson

    In a weird kinda a way I hope this Taupau talk is true. Would be hilarious! If he is dumb enough to be so disillusioned with Manly and favour a move to Parra then he’s beyond help. I doubt it’ll happen but there are some really dumb people in this game!

    Shaun Johnson

    Please explain! How the f**k can Cronulla sign yet another marquee player when: 1. I realise the my have released Holmes BUT it was part of his release that he must return to them if NFL doesn’t work out next year so don’t they have to keep that money available or take that clause away? 2...

    Worst Big Name Signing

    James Leuluai. Spent most of his career carving it up in England and scored 14 tries in 29 games for New Zealand. Arrived in Australia with a reputation as the best centre in the world and after 5 games was exposed as one of Manly's worst ever signings...and rarely seen again.

    Wacko's Whispers re: D Walkz

    If you believe the rumours we’ll have Monas, Donny and the Tea Lady in the backline next season! Relax, Des have proven that he knows what he’s doing!

    Who replaces kelly ?

    Excuse my ignorance but where has it been said that Will Hopoate is even a chance of returning or the Dogs are keen to do business?
