    What will turn Manly from a good side into a great side

    Lacks leadership qualities and a clear mindset on how to deliver a "team" performance that is consistent and repeatable, he knows how to motivate himself(which is a good thing from a personal perspective) but not how to motivate and bring on board the "collective" mindset that puts everyone on...

    So very predictable

    Nice movement off the ball and during the delivery of the pass from Brookes for Toms try was the only "technical highlight" worth noting in that game. I pushed for more of this being evident in an earlier post during the week but it can't just revolve around one player offering this option it...

    So very predictable

    Two of the highest paid players in the game should easily finish off the Raiders with some composed attack and disciplined up tempo play but once again looking for immediate attacking returns with some low percentage options that wasn't necessary. I can accept the odd arrogant display from a...

    What will turn Manly from a good side into a great side

    Congratulations on working out that if you remove any teams first choice starting half from a game they win, it probably is less likely to be a winning performance without them. Or you could say Manly have two of the highest paid attacking players in the game and yet many games our attack looks...

    What will turn Manly from a good side into a great side

    More mobility and sharpness in our forward line up that can up the tempo of the game both in attack and defence, more first man plays with variety and straightness along with more movement off the ball and as the ball is passed to create openings. More attacking variety through the middle and...

    Single-handedly you got to be kidding right.

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    I know that is the reason but i call BS on many "Sellout" reporting early in the season to generate enthusiasm for earlier ticket purchases throughout the season for the FOMO effect. In saying that it was a bumper crowd on Friday, i know the reduced numbers on the hill are for safety reasons...

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    The word "sellout" is over-used these days to drum up enthusiasm, even the Parra vs Manly game at Parra Stadium was called a "sellout" when there were huge vacant areas all over the place. 17,300 is a reduced capacity sellout but with probably better yields due to higher costs to sit in the new...

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    Our attack is a C at best regardless of the numbers.Looking good is not the same as effective composed attack with substance. Second man spreads with the occasional lead runner play and exception to the rule middle plays is only a baseline starting point, but at least it is good enough for now...

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

    What has embracing Anzac spirit and showing Terry Hill respect got to do with it. Effort means nothing if it's not applied effectively. Instead of saying "useless bunch of cats" maybe direct it towards our "useless" poor way of playing the game.

    Waddell - a pleasant surprise

    Doing well, seems the better performers at the moment are the "lesser" players and new signings. Our big name players need to start standing up and performing at a "professional" mature composed level, it just hasn't been consistently good enough.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Stated from day one his body shape will not hold up to the pace of the game as a 5/8 and long term the effort to keep in good enough shape would be too mentally draining to keep under control leading to inconsistent performances and injuries. Sure the death of a close friend is going to impact...

    Game Day: Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    It's not necessarily a blame game all the time as most centres fear their halfback one on one in the redzone needs support in the tackle against hard running lines but Garrick has very slow reaction speed in general, it's been obvious since game one. Also the variety and quality of ball playing...

    Game Day: Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    Garrick hasn't been impressive at all in the centres, plays too stiff, is hesitant at times, other times over commits and he lacks a turn of footy speed off a stop start that can create points or get across in cover if the attack gets around him. That side in defense with Paulo is what i was...

    Woodsie's Team List Tuesdays

    It's pretty obvious why long time posters are leaving and why diversity in chats is lacking, you can't even make constructive critical analytical posts here without someone being offended or twisting the narrative to suit their own agendas, this eventually leads to attacking the individual which...

    Credit to coach

    Some very good signs, some very annoying poor elements also but a much better platform to work off compared to last years start at home that wasn't worth the price of admission.(promptly ends dribble before ban kicks in lol)

    The Manly Way

    Some people have class and aim higher in life, i don't expect you to relate to that so all good.

    The Manly Way

    You have read me wrongly, i have stood up for Penn in the past and actually admired the tight not overspending nature that is sustainable for the club, i also appreciated and noted that no-one stays this long as an owner if there isn't genuine passion for the club and wanting success for the...

    AUSTRALIA DAY, Why we celebrate. The Truth

    Politics now has all moved more left from their previous positions to the point it has almost flipped and the left appears to represent more of the "Elites" than the right. I voted for and had huge respect for the economic reforms of the Hawke/Keating period and never was a fan of how the right...
