    Pre-Game Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    Yes I am guilty of being a slightly biased and one eyed Sea Eagles supporter. I do think however this is more a reflection of how well our team has started the year and more specifically how well our forwards are going. Particularly the front row and especially with Lodge and Sips as backup. Yes...

    Pre-Game Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    I have not been his biggest fan since the Rainbow fiasco a couple of years back but got to say he is playing big minutes and playing really strong. With Taniela they are arguably the best front row in the comp. With Lodge and Sips looming on the bench, I think that would be a premiership winning...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    There are a few possible variations for the Shu. However I would be keeping it really simple for him with a view of getting him more focused and fitter. He could be really destructive in that middle of the park in and amongst the big boys particularly as they get tired. Gives us a whole new...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Well said @Bearfax and totally agree it's a confidence thing with the Shu. Lots of contributing factors here that would destroy anyone's self confidence but not the least of which has been his varying / changing position(s) in the team. I think they have nailed it this weekend by naming him at...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Roosters [Round 2, 2024]

    Another great performance against another Top 4-8 side. Really impressed with our forwards who I thought hammered the more fancied Roosters pack. I said earlier in the year that Brooks will be the buy of the season and can only repeat that. What I really liked was that DCE and Tommy had...

    Kelma Tuilagi

    Our Recruitment and Retention team have made some really smart decisions last 6 months. This is is one of their best. I know Tuilagi played out of position in the Eels game on Friday night but wow some seriously bad defence and slow pace there. Surely had to be playing injured???

    Pre-Game Manly v Roosters [Round 2, 2024]

    Me to. You only need to go back to the trials a few weeks back when our reserve grade side almost beat their close to full strength star studded 1st grade side. That's when Young got injured. This time they play our big boys in front of a capacity crowd at Brooky. Hence my good vibes for Sunday...

    Pre-Game Manly v Roosters [Round 2, 2024]

    I think you got the score line right but I see it going the other way. Loved our 1st up game against Souths and thought our forwards stood up really well especially when the chips were down. A real solid look around Tom this year but thought Brooks was an absolute revelation in the halves. The...

    I thought young Aitasi James looked out of it during the trials. I was expecting some more fire and aggression from the young guy. Early days yet so will keep my fingers crossed for him.

    Is Jaxson Paulo a starter

    I think he would have been disappointed with his game. Missed a vital tackle that looked half hearted and allowed the Souths winger to score. Missed a great pass from Brooks that would have had him flying down the side line. Yes the pass was slightly ahead of him rather than on his chest but I...

    Manly v Rabbits Vegas

    I thought Parker had a good hit out in that first half. Just back from surgery in the offseason so I think may have been somewhat tentative. I don't think he played any time in that 2nd half. Should be an interesting transition in that 2nd row. He runs beautiful lines and has always tackled well.

    Trial vs Broncos

    I think Jamie Humphreys has been the clear standout in each of our three trials. Clayton Faulalo also been very impressive. Both guys would not be out of place in our NRL side. Lean pickings in the forwards (apart from Sips) but got to say Diaz and Sykes had really good digs tonight. Hope they...

    Trial vs Broncos

    No Lehi Hopoate for us?? He looked really good against the Roosters last week. Exceptional speed and great awareness for such a young guy. Great talent in this family. Surely we are due for one of these guys to stick with us since dad's memorable days!!!!!

    Lodge, you Monster

    With Jared Maria Hargraves retiring this year, Lodge has the opportunity of taking over his title as (arguably) the most feared prop in the game. Hopefully minus all the penalties and time off on the sidelines!!! If Brown hits his potential as well then I think that title might extend to our...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Absolutely agree. Probably bring him out towards the backend of both halves actually. This will be my last comment on the Shu as I think the fewer words said about the young guy, the better for him. Less pressure and just allow him to focus on his fitness. The rest I am sure will happen...
