    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    Yeah, TKO has really surprised me. His effort tonight was excellent.

    Knee knock, with a Dragons players (can't remember who).

    Unfortunately, Bully picked up a knee injury. I like to think he would have been given more time on the field otherwise, but who really knows?

    The only player we have with any composure is Lehi Hopoate, the youngest member of the team.

    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Dragons [Round 7, 2025]

    Again, got close enough to snatch it, but weren't good enough and didn't deserve it anyway. Definitely a game we should have won and probably would have won if we'd put in an even halfway decent performance. But the handling errors absolutely killed us. Big upside was L'il Hoppa. Still love...

    Except chances are he'll be needed at fullback. We just can't rely on Turbo being fit. When he was one of our gun juniors, I always thought Gutho would make an excellent five-eight. Still do.

    Worst selection error in Manly history.

    Have to correct you there, mate. There's no way Clayton is 90kg. Everything else you say is correct.

    Game Day: Manly V Dragons [Round 7, 2025]

    Same as last week: the team we're playing is not playing well at all, but we have still managed to be worse than them in just about every facet of the game. Lehi and Bully the only ones not mentioned in Kurt Capewell's Book of Rugby League Players Who Suck Completely (available at progressive...

    Jake T.

    Really don't like these head knocks he's picking up these days in defence. There was a time when Jake's defensive technique was a thing of beauty, and he would never get his head in the wrong position when he was making a tackle. Sadly, it seems like another sign that the game is starting to...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    And I thought he was bad last week. This week he's worse, almost completely disengaged from the game and the team.

    The aloe vera is bound to help, Wombat!

    Our Anzac Jersey

    I'm going to take a wild guess and say it won't contain a depiction of a rainbow rising over the Gallipoli trenches.

    Great minds, Wombat. We deserve a two-for-one deal on tonight's lubrication bill…

    Game Day: Manly V Dragons [Round 7, 2025]

    Even with Aloiai our pack looks average. Outside of Haumole, our forward stocks are at an all-time low, which makes it very difficult to win football games even against bog-average teams.

    Galvin

    Not having a go at Leo Thompson or Terrell May showed that.

    Sack Spoony Siebold

    Um, I think it appeared that Luke Brooks was given the keys because Cherry was MIA. I don't think this was deliberate, and in fairness, Brooks was mostly MIA until the second half as well. But somebody had to take the role of a half. Agreed. And we have signed Lodge, so he is not unemployed...

    It blows my mind to have to say this, but we are now in the position where Josh Aloiai - Oshay Olay - is our best front rower. That is not good. Not good at all.

    Jake T.

    I think it can, will and should happen, at least with Jake and Tom. The only question will be the numbers on each contract. We can't be paying what we've been paying, and I think they both know that, but at the right price they can still add value to the team.

    Yeah, he was probably our best last week and was close to invisible today.
