[Resurrected] If Blake Green had stayed.....
Left the club on bad terms in 2018 Managed by Isaac Moses Attacking coach on the wooden spooners, who had the least points scored by nearly 100 points How inspiring. Happy to be wrong but I can't see how this ends well if true- JakeyB789

Has let through far more tries down our right side from jumping out of the line and looking for that intercept though- JakeyB789

Turbo to Superleague?
Agreed but by 2027 he will be 30 with another season under his belt. Given the way the last 6 years have gone there is every chance he picks up an injury or two next year and loses yet another step. If the club wants to offer him a reduced deal and he is happy to take a paycut, it's hard to see...- JakeyB789

Kobe Hetherington
I agree with you and think some are in denial thinking Jake still has anything left to offer, but the fact is he will be on $1m+ next year and likely the captain, so he will be in the starting side no matter what. We can't bench middles with actual go forward like Paseka or TKO for him, so he...- JakeyB789

Kobe Hetherington
Hetherington is not an edge backrower and is barely a starting calibre lock either. He played there during the first half of this year for Brisbane and it didn't work out as he doesn't really have the workrate or ball playing ability required for the position. Both him and the Broncos have been...- JakeyB789

Wooden Spoon
Well I was probably a bit dramatic in making this thread but it was after we had lost to the Knights and Titans, the two teams who ended up finishing 16th and 17th. Don’t really like the direction the club is heading and think it’s very possible one may come eventually, but I do think Fogarty...- JakeyB789

Pre-Game Manly V Warriors [Round 27, 2025]
Ignoring the fact another one of the young guys is getting looked over, what is the logic in replacing a prop in Sipley with a centre/2nd rower in Schoupp who is also apparently heading to the Super League? Walsh and Schoupp to play 10-15 minutes each from the bench against this Warriors pack...- JakeyB789

Garrick general news thread
I've given Garrick some **** over the years, especially with his stint in the centres and even when he last played fullback (always thought Koula should've been there in Tom's absence before Lehi emerged), but I'd honestly be pretty sad if he left. One of the best wingers in the comp IMO and is...- JakeyB789

Tom Turbo .. interesting if true
If Turbo had an inkling of self awareness he would pull out of the Ashes tour after the season and put his full focus on Manly for 2026, given we are essentially making him the highest paid player in the game next year I don’t fully blame him for chasing success at rep level since it’s not...- JakeyB789

Post-Game Discussion Dragons V Manly [Round 26, 2025]
Can’t believe the $CE to Waddell rubbish actually worked twice, two of the softest tries I’ve ever seen. The Dragons fans around me on the hill were embarrassed by those and quite frankly they should’ve been 😅 At this stage of the season I’m only looking for things that will help us next year...- JakeyB789

Caleb Navale
Yep it’s better to hold them back as late as possible, give them every chance to find another club that will give them an opportunity, and continue playing older players who can’t get the job done just because they have experience. Not sure referencing Des’ methods and ideas is something we...- JakeyB789

Joey Walsh
Well Walsh should finally get his debut next week with Koula out and Schoupp to join the starting side. Might only be 10 minutes max but wil be good to see someone under the age of 30 given the opportunity to play for us. Hope he has a blinder and gives Spoony plenty to think about over the...- JakeyB789
