    PRE-GAME DISCUSSION: Manly v Rabbits [Round 2, 2021]

    Surely Funa or Morgan is going to come in at Fullback with Walker to centre and Parker to the farm. Then Foran will ride the bench with Cust to start at 9, Croker to the farm and Schuster to start at 6..... Surely that's his plan..... It's all just a ploy to effectively name the same team right?

    The team that should be selected for rd 1 and why

    Probably a bit harsh on Walker considering he was injured most of the season and in positional flux. But with depth coming through I do agree this is the year he needs to perform or he'll be off to find another team.

    The team that should be selected for rd 1 and why

    Based on injuries and form from Training and Trails I'd like to see the below. I suspect Harper will be replaced by Funa with Garrick on the wing. I also expect Foran in 6 with Croker at 9 and maybe Schuster getting the 17. Forwards will likely be the same old same resulting in our line bending...

    [Resurrected] Turbo injury,healt..wait..injury - updates

    He's what, 22 years old, out for a close mate and team mate birthday. Whilst he was likely drinking, he didn't look even close to being drunk. He also didn't look like he was putting in serious effort. Whilst not the best look, to say that athletes can't let their hair down on a Saturday night...

    Josh Aloiai, and membership discussions.

    I honestly know nothing about this guy. Is he any good? Is he a prop or second row? Is he a tosser or was the tantrum to leave the Tigers justified?

    NRL Salary Cap Era

    TPAs were a result of players being upset they couldn't profit from their fame / likeness, which I don't have an issue with at all. The issue lies in that it's so easy to manipulate TPAs to cheat the salary cap. Hence why I think get rid of it, then players can earn whatever they are worth. But...

    NRL Salary Cap Era

    Now that would be a good read. I'd suggest a number of clubs would be over the cap. I'd be more interested in the club's that are overpaying for under Performance

    NRL Salary Cap Era

    Curious on your objections to eliminating the cap? There would still be a cap to keep the field competitive. Only reason I suggest this is that it all but eliminates cheating the cap (under table payments) and the excuse you can't release the figures due to player privacy.

    NRL Salary Cap Era

    I got bored this afternoon so decided to have a look over the NRL Results during the Salary Cap Era (1998 through 2020). Here are some the simple stats: 23 Seasons Plays 23 Grand Finals Played 15 of the 16 Teams have played in a Grand Final (Only Gold Coast have missed out) This actually...

    Corrupt NRL

    I know I shouldn't be surprised, but it is still frustrating.....

    28 man squad in 2021

    I like the list in general with a few differences. Can't see us holding onto Hopoate Jr. Think he will sign elsewhere for a starting gig. Can see a swap of Garrett and Saab, but also not sure Saab is a 100% starter. Suli is not a winger. He's a centre every day of the week. Swap him and Funa...

    5/8 Spot

    Out of the box idea here, what about Turbo at 6? Less miles for the dodgy hammy?

    Didn't fail, saw the humour. Just couldn't bring myself to even entertain that idea as a joke

    Optimistic for 2021

    Am I the only one that would rather the team lose than have Captain Scum at hooker?

    Let's be honest...

    I understood the first sentence, them you lost me..... Something about sweet pants and Yogi at a table... Did he steal the honey pot again?

    Optimistic for 2021

    Hooker is the position we need to get better at. Available per zero tackle for next year is: HOOKER Kurt Baptiste, Billy Brittain, Reuben Cotter, Jake Friend, Cameron King, Danny Levi, Joe Lovodua, Issac Luke, Nathan Peats, Cameron Smith, Tom Starling Starling was my hopeful. Unfortunately he...

    Next Years Backline

    I agree with your theory and assessment, but also think cap space is a finite thing for Manly (not so much other teams). With money invested elsewhere, I'd argue a significant upgrade to winger isn't a major priority / possibly sadly.

    Next Years Backline

    I agree BOZO. Let Harper, Funa, Miski, Garrick, Tafua and Hopoate battle out for the two wing spots.
