    Tommy Talau

    Tommy Talua has been someone who has exceded my expectations and has pushed Paulo back to reserves, which I never expected at the beginning of this year. I am not sure Talau is that good as a centre, however, while he lacks the speed of a winger, he knows how to find the line and his defefence...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Being young Hoppa on as a winger initially when Turbo returns, as he gives us cover at the back.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    I would be ecstatic if Brad Arthur came back to Manly. Believe it or not, he was the cornerstone of our defence when he worked with Toovs. He’s smart and he is loved by players, however, as head coach, he just couldn’t get Parra over the line, and this year, injuries to Moses, Brown and...

    Little Gordie

    Also, with Lawton leaving at the end of 2024, they’ll need to figure out who is going to be reserve hooker

    Injury squad

    Arthur definitely to half and Brooks to stay at 6. After Friday night against Storm, I’d stick with Lehi at FB and have Koula at Centre and Tolau back to wing

    Aaron Schoupp

    Okay, there’s obviously stuff we don’t know as to why we need another Centre/Winger. If the ‘powers that be’ determine we need another Centre, then maybe there are some injuries we are all unaware of and we need depth in that position. People on here ‘bagging’ the poor guy and he hasn’t even...

    Aaron Schoupp

    A swap of some sort may be on the cards or it may be family reasons. I don't think it will be long before we see Lehi Hopoate in first grade We cannot possibly do that know Ryan, as the salaries were pretty evenly spread among the players. Yes, some got more and some got less, however, not...

    Now THIS is an exciting signing !!

    As long as the young outstanding players he brings through are not managed by Tartak, I’ll be happy.

    Would you be unhappy to see The Bunker scraped?

    There is no way we will get rid of The Bunker, because as Will on the Hill wrote, it’s all because of the milli-second replays available to the broadcasters and the things refs can’t see. The rule I really hate is the interference, when it’s clear to all and sundry, many rulings are just so...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I heard Manly are in for $200k a year from 2025 to 2027. I’m not sure what they are in for this year. The club is really showing compassion, which is good. Hopefully Schu finds another home.

    Club News 2024

    I think that probably means the club is happy with GCKT and Humphries coming through to support Froggy. Ennis would have been putting plenty of time working with the youngsters. We'll probably see GCKT or Humphries on the bench more often and Lawton playing for Workers.

    Annesley's weakly "Why this happened" report - 2024 edition.

    Thank heavens Casey missed all the extra offsides as it would have just been ridiculous to watch. Officials miss offside play constantly, as many times it’s marginal and really only reviewed if a try is scored. When we had two refs, they used to manage offside play better, or maybe players...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    There’s so many polarizing opinions regarding Shu, however, I reckon he could be right up there with Cliffy with his deception and try assist ability. He just needs confidence and time, as he is still only young and obviously has some personal issues he is dealing with. His passing game is so...

    Parker to centre on Sun.

    There’s plenty of options to replace a winger, so I wouldn’t be too worried about it. The Sqeels are not boasting too much talent on the wings.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Jake these days has to be prop, just like he is for NSW or when selected for Australia. The only reason he has been at 13 at Manly is because we’ve had no one of his ability to replace him there. It’s up to Schu to convince Seibs he can fill the 13 role and Manly gains, rather than loses, by...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I totally agree. He just needs game time, confidence and match fitness. Seibs is going to have an interesting scenario when Sips and Lodge are back. No doubt injuries will occur which will create opportunities, however, where and how do they all fit in? Aloiai was good, Paseka was good...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I went to the Reggie’s game specifically to see Schu play and I was really disappointed in what I saw. I wasn’t even sure what position he was playing, as he spent most of the time next to the left winger, which I found quite odd. His defence seemed okay, however I did not see the Chook’s first...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I'd just like to add about the Schu. Look how Angus Chriton played in Reggies. Same position, and he absolutely killed it. If you want to be the best NRL player, you have to at least make an effort.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I attended the Reggies game, specifically to watch the Schu, much to my wife's disagreement, However, with first grade, she is 3-0! And that's over 20 years of our relationship, so she has been lucky for us. Well I have to encourage her to attend more! Watching the game, as my whole interest...

    Blacktown Workers

    I’m not sure why Schu decided to play Reggie’s today, as he doesn’t seem to be too interested. A couple of tackled, a knock on and lots of walking so far. Blacktown’s right side defence is leaking points. Interesting at half time, Blacktown went into the sheds while Roosters stayed on the field.
