    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Chooks [Round 22, 2025]

    Yeah, those of you who braved those conditions deserved way more in the way of entertainment than what you got. Unless you've got a kink for disinterested footballers in decline, there was nothing out there to get excited about.

    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Chooks [Round 22, 2025]

    Cherry moving on has to be the start of something, but he shouldn't be the only domino to fall. Our forwards are largely useless, we still don't have a hooker, or more than two players capable of playing in the back row, etc, etc, etc. That was just woeful. We've scored eight points in two...

    Sack Seibold Immediately

    I've just always assumed he's thinking of the after-game cake and sandwich platters.

    Joey Walsh

    Cherry has done everything within his power to get Seibold sacked this season. If Seibold had any balls, he'd be giving young guys - including Joey Walsh - a go. We really have nothing to lose. But I get it: there's no point putting a young half behind a crap pack of forwards. And then there'd...

    You'd think so. Let's see what they dish up.

    Fox Reporter James Hooper Sacked

    True. Old school "Nielsen-style" ratings are essentially useless these days, where content is played on demand, cut up, and endlessly regurgitated across a network, in print and online. The reach of a show like NRL 360 would be much greater than those ratings would indicate. Still doesn't mean...

    The weather has turned even nastier than it was earlier today, so we will be running into a gale and chasing points. Yay.

    Game Day: Manly V Chooks [Round 22, 2025]

    There is one good halfback out there, and it ain't Cherry. Our woeful attacking options (not all Cherry's fault, to be fair) have cost us and already we look out of puff and out of ideas. Hoping we can somehow get back into it in the second half, but playing through adversity is not in this...

    I mean, the kicker did have time to reset and go through his process again, although the referee should have reset the clock and let him start from scratch. Rueben had that meathead NAS running past him as he was in the motion of kicking in that Melbourne game, and no one said "boo" about that.

    They'll need to send a cleaning crew up to the commentary box after that kick from Cleary sent Andrew "Two-Point Field Goal" Voss into an orgasmic frenzy.

    But what about all the other great content on Kayo? Oh… Yes, I see your point. Cancel away!

    No, not great. But it's our own fault. And a small part of me would feel for the Dolphins if they didn't make the finals this year. The way they've been playing and the injuries they've had, they deserve to get there. They're also a much better team to watch than we are. To make the eight, we're...

    And then one of them gives away the penalty that costs them the game. Yikes!

    Halasima just gets better every game. Like watching Haumole's development all over again.

    They would have played together at the Tigers when Reynolds was there, I guess?
