    Manly In Crisis 2025 edition

    Sipley and Waddell joining Saab and Croker in NSW Cup this weekend. Was initially excited especially to see Waddell's name, but realised it has no bearing on our team list for next week and any or all of them could be straight back in first grade after the bye.

    Manly In Crisis 2025 edition

    As I said I certainly wouldn't be calling them easy wins. Just on paper they are games we should win and I suspect that if we don't then Mestrov would no longer have a choice.

    Manly In Crisis 2025 edition

    I wonder if this has all been timed given we are on the bye and are likely to win our next two matches anyway. Both at home against 2 teams that have a combined one win from their last 8, with that one win being Souths beating Tigers. Although we've lost to the only 3 teams below them in the...

    We are Laughing stock of the NRL

    So you are saying Seibold didn't get the spoon because he actually had the Broncos in 15th place and then quit before getting sacked? And the bloke that replaced him for the last 7 games is the same one Seibold brought to the club as a Recruitment Manager and is now our Head of Football and...

    Storm make BIG 4 work - we don't

    Their recruitment is on another level to ours (and the rest of the competition). All the players they've signed in recent years to build around their spine have been young guys with potential who for one reason or another were on the outer at their previous club. Katoa (now one of the best...

    The Positive Thread

    The Dollar Chaser having less than 10 games left for the club is by far the biggest positive. Good ****ing riddance

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    Talau has been fantastic. I hate this team but can respect a guy having a dig and constantly making good runs while everyone else is ****ting the bed.

    Wooden Spoon

    I hope people are ready for us to break a 78 year drought because it’s looking like a genuine possibility now. Losses to the bottom 3 teams in the Titans, Knights and Eels in the last four weeks, and only 2 points clear of last place now. Lost our best player for potentially the year in...

    Game Day: Titans V Manly [Round 15, 2025]

    I’m sorry but if this is what Tom is now he shouldn’t even be in the 17 at all, even if he is ‘fit’ to play. Lehi, Koula and Garrick are all better options at the back. Seibold has a lot to answer for too but careful criticising him as it may be considered spam

    Our hooker for 2026

    It is absolutely time to move on from Croker, the bloke is approaching 30, has had all sorts of issues with concussion and knee/neck injuries, and was never a hooker to begin with. He plays tough and is a great clubman, but if anyone is genuinely fine with him still being the starting hooker...

    All NRL Games [Round 14, 2025]

    If we can’t beat this GC team next week Seibold should not be on the plane home

    What will Dollars do for the second half of season?

    Fogarty is the main man at the Raiders who currently have the most wins in the competition, with a roster that is arguably not much better than ours. That includes Weekes at fullback who many derided on here but has now improved and found success with a stable half that uses his weapons properly...

    Post-Game Discussion Knights V Manly [Round 14, 2025]

    $CE has not kicked a 40/20 this year and has 2 in each of the last 2 years. For the amount of times he's attempted them I'd say his strike rate would be around 5%. Makes sense given low percentage plays are in his DNA

    Number 9 - when will they learn.

    Croker 2 runs for 8 metres, Simpkin zero runs in his 34 minute stint. Insanely low numbers considering we were actually winning the forward battle for once against a team that already had no middles, and then lost Frizell after 5 minutes. No surprise with Croker but I've had high hopes for...

    Luke Brooks - the plate is hot

    Brooks is a victim of DCE's poor game management, just like the 20+ other 5/8's we've used over the last 10 years (barring Foz and Blake Green who just took up that role themselves). How many times this year have we seen DCE jump into dummy half on the last and force Brooks into taking the kick...
