    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Watmough signed a 4 year $750k p.a. deal back when the salary cap was $6.55M (it's now $11.65M). He played 17 games mostly as a passenger. Not sure if it was directly linked but it was also the year they breached the salary cap, were fined $1M, docked 12 points and striped of the Auckland 9s...

    2025 recruitment & retention

    "Depth, particularly in the halves" and "Has the ability to play in the middle" is along way from being seen as an option to start as a middle in 1st grade. I don't hate it as much as I sound like I do but if there was even a glimmer of hope of this happening he would be playing lock at Blacktown.

    Jake Arthur

    I don't disagree that we could use a Murray/Yeo type at lock but these guys are energiser bunnies that tackle and run all day with good ball playing as a bonus. It would be unfair on Arthur to play him in the middle. Its not impossible in a few years time but he would need a season or 2 doing it...

    Game Day: Manly V Eels [Round 8, 2024]

    Here's hoping for another quick start but this time we go on with it. Parra will be fired up and playing with emotion after being embarrassed by the Phins and shamed by their coach. Emotion can be powerful but it's a double edged sword. If we give them a sniff they'll maintain their heightened...

    Kick off change

    It's common place in NFL and they don't have knock ons and if the ball goes out the receiving team gets the ball, so it'd work even better in league. If you hit it hard enough in just the right spot you can get the ball to bounce unbelievably high after grubbering along the ground for the...

    Kick off change

    If they want to make a change stop punishing defenders that make Jake style copybook tackles. While players are encouraged to gang tackle while standing bolt upright we will continue see these incidents, regardless of how big a run up they have.

    Lomax 3 flick passes, 1 for a try, 1 gives up a try and 1 for a turnover. Pretty much sums him up. Even with his recent form he isn't origin material IMO.

    They've definitely changed the double movement interpretation. Arm carrying the ball touched the ground and ball was promoted. Guess they're calling that momentum??

    They really grow a leg when Fifi comes on. Surely Des starts him at some point.

    Following the same script as last week. Maybe the Tits aren't as bad as their record suggests.

    Unfortunately even if he gets a regular job and never plays footy again the payout for the termination goes on our cap. No ifs, buts or maybes.
