    2026 recruitment & retention

    Exactly. Club culture and standards are simply PR and group assimilation buzzwords that are utilised for the sole purpose of winning footy games. Fans, members, sponsors want wins above all else. Sitting back and b*tching about the personal lives, and mistakes made, of our young...

    Pre-Game Manly V Knights [Round 19, 2024]

    Still inconclusive as some teams have played 15, some 16, some 17 Mathematically, it's still too early to pin point exact positions for most clubs... schrodinger's table

    Didn't Des sack Ballin at Manly?

    Lodge, you Monster

    I think, if they keep developing accordingly, guys like Navale and Dunford look to be the type we need more of in the middle. But we really need to recruit externally for a gun edge forward, and a little more traditional in style than Ola'akautu

    Pre-Game Manly V Knights [Round 19, 2024]

    Don't underestimate the Knights pack. Winning this game will lie largely with our forwards. The fortress will do the rest. But if our middles get beat, then it doesn't matter what Turbo and Brooks do

    Pre-Game Manly V Knights [Round 19, 2024]

    I reckon Waddell (if fit) takes Ola'akautu's spot, Lawton starts for Burbo, and I would bring in Schoupp to take Lawton's bench spot. Humphreys for DCE, Brown starts for Jake, leaving one spot left for another middle: Paseka? Maybe Croker as a 13 type? Possibly Navale again? But I reckon...

    Pre-Game Manly V Knights [Round 19, 2024]

    It has to be Humphreys next week. All round half who can take over the kicking duties. The Souths game was a different proposition. But Knights at Brookie is a great opportunity for a debut. As you say, Arthur is out, Bunting still getting used to NSW Cup. If we are serious about winning...

    All NRL Games [Round 18, 2024]

    The usual... a clueless owner, a soft pack, a self-driven 7, an injured Turbo, and more recently, a useless coach

    Game Day Thread (Dark Mode)

    I find it highly entertaining actually. As gutted as I can get when Manly play like sh*t, I can always count on someone else feeling even worse lol and some of the posts genuinely crack me up. As ridiculous as they are, I feel the pain too! And seeing the frustration across the forum is actually...

    The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

    Agree with your conclusions, but Lawton has been picked every week after signing with the Cowboys, so your reasoning behind Humphreys' non-selection is erroneous. Also, missing most of your first string team is a pretty fair call for the "free throw" business, but unfortunately we couldn't fire...

    The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

    Whilst true, they were also the only team to pretty regularly knock off Penrith at their peak during several seasons. Pretty formidable team, that was consistently top 4. He also assembled quite a roster, so players wanted to come play for him. If we sacked a proven Premiership winning coach...

    I'll never forget Bennett post match when Trell was put on report, clearly heading for time on the sideline. The normally cool and composed Wayne knew at that moment they couldn't win the GF. Rarely have seen him so visibly rattled.

    What are people's thoughts on a Waddell extension? Is this dependent on whether we need extra funds for a possible big scalp? I reckon he's a pretty handy back up

    Good bunch. I'm also a little curious on the development of Dunford, and O'Donnell

    2026 recruitment & retention

    I'm guessing Hopoate and Navale. Hopefully a big scalp coming for 2025

    Origin II - 2024

    Why is everyone getting worked up over Jake's minutes?? By naming Jake our state's captain, NSW is sending the message to all our players that these are the traits and attitudes we must aspire to. This is no accident, and his number of minutes do not have to equate to his designated role, and...

    The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

    Even Barrett took Manly top 8 in his second year. If Seibold can't do it from this position after his time so far, he should be sacked at season's end. Without one doubt. Last year, we won 5 from our last 9. If we just do one better this year, we'll finish in the 8. If we can jag 1 or 2 wins...
