    Did anyone see the game? Interested to know how Sips went.

    Jason Saab

    Good move from the Club. Baring injuries, at 23 this guy is only going to get bigger.....faster. Love the way he is rucking the ball out from our red zone this year.

    Pre-Game Penrith V Manly [Round 14, 2024]

    I reckon that would be the team to roll the Panthers. My only change would be to start Lawman and bench Simpkin.

    Jake Simpkin signed until 2026

    Ryan, you got me worried now. I am Italian and I love my pineapple on my pizza's!!!

    Turbo good to go

    I like it except for your DCE and turbo moves. I would not be putting an almost 36 year old at the tail end of his career at 9. Also I would not be putting Turbo closer to ruck where he can get bashed more easily AND in a position that requires stepping, stopping and starting from scratch and...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Agreed. What do u do with the Turbo on return?

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Good points @Bearfax and no disagreement on any. Point 10 is the intriguing one for mine. While Turbo is out, who do you drop from the balance list. Got to be one of either Vaega or Hopa?? Tough call as both played brilliantly on the weekend. When turbo is back it gets even tougher. What do you...

    Turbo good to go

    What to do with Turbo on his return is going to be Seibold's hardest decision. After 6 hamstrings, 1 pec and 1 shoulder, I think his best days are behind him. I would absolutely love to be proven wrong here but I think that is the case. He can certainly still provide value add from FB but given...

    Little Gordie

    I like Gordie on the bench particularly with a fit Sips, Bully and Brown. Now there's impact for you. Contrary to some of the commentary on here, I actually like Gordie holding the ball from DH for that split second or two.....rather than just a straight off pass off the ground. Really puts the...

    Little Gordie

    Agreed @maxta. He adds a whole new different dimension to our attack. His defence will improve with time. Will be interesting to see if he retains that bench spot when Croker is back. You would think Lawton gets that spot?? Interesting call from the coach.

    Jason Saab

    Gutsy and gritty performance from all the boys last night but got to say Saaby made some great runs under pressure and a definite try saver tackle with the game in balance. Great return from injury. Good to have him back.

    Lehi Hopoate

    Tolu is also my favourite player in the team. Turbo definitely the more experienced but you are comparing a 21 year old rookie with very limited NRL experience (especially at FB) to a 27 y/o established Australian and SOO superstar. When Tom gets back, I would like to see Manly continue with...

    Blacktown Workers

    Yes unfortunately must agree. I watched him during our trial games and thought he needed to improve a lot for NRL. Sadly I think he has gone the other way in Reserves. Still young enough and hope he proves me wrong bigtime. But definitely not an option this year for our 17. Pity as we...

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 11, 2024]

    Great opportunity for the team to make a statement. Paseka and Haumole can certainly state their case for NSW SOO in this one game. Cherry I think holds the key however. If he plays his calm cool game manager role we win. If he plays the run around in circles in the backline role we get beat...

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 11, 2024]

    I thought Gordie made a huge difference when he came on last week. Totally different player to Croker and Karl Lawton. He got our middles rolling forward much faster and over the advantage line each time. He has a great knack of taking a quick 1-2 metre run from dummy half and not only putting...

    D-Day This Friday

    Hey Al. Got a good feeling about this game. Bounce back factor, Brown back, Lodge and Sips hopefully more match fit than what we have seen, Tolu at FB with thankfully a lot more space. Talau should be in the centres so that opens up the wings. Love to see Seibold give young Lehi Hopoate and...

    Turbos D looks down on past?

    Sadly I think at 28 years of age we have seen the best of Turbo. After 6 hammies, 1 pec and 1 major shoulder surgery I think his speed off the mark and defensive abilities are badly effected. Unfortunately reminds me of the great Jonny Gibbs who played for Manly in the 80's and arguably the most...

    D-Day This Friday

    For mine Friday is a must win game. The interest from my perspective is no so much about the 2 points but much more how these guys pick themselves up from adversity....some embarrassing losses / scrappy wins plus now Turbo and Saaby out for an extended period of time. R they a serious contender...

    D-Day This Friday

    I think this coming Friday will be a D-Day for the Club and for our team. I think we will either be DELIGHTED with the result and get back to some more positive comments and sentiments (on this site) OR the club would need to consider making some serious structural DECISIONS around some of the...
