    Manly - Top 8

    I don't think so, they're on a run at the moment but with SOO3 still to come they'll be missing at least two, maybe three of their best players ( no more byes) and they'll need to back up too. They'll be running on empty soon enough.

    Garricks performance at centre

    That could be a portent for this weekend. Looking at the line up and bench we can safely assume that Hoppa won't be coming off the bench to play back up dummy half, that's Lawton's job. Could Talau move to the backrow or lock for a short stint with Hoppa to wing?

    Turbo back.. at centre

    Koula at fullback Hoppa @ 14 Interesting.

    Knights Salary Cap

    True. But ask yourself, if you were a player who would you prefer to play for? I doubt the chooks are paying Dom Young much more than what he was going to be getting at the Knights ( he would've been looking at a major upgrade to stay surely) They were ready to punt Crichton but he's made it...

    Turbo back.. at centre

    Last weeks injury update from the club had Garrick's return date as indefinite, is there more to his concussion that needs looking at? It's unusual for the club to put out a press release to say Turbo is back and playing in the centres prior to them list Tuesday. So are one of the centres...

    Send-offs in the 'six again', size and speed era

    While on this topic, a send off is a huge disadvantage but a player can be put on report twice and may not even go to the bin. How does that work?

    Jamie Humphreys

    Don't you just love journo rhetoric. "Willing to let him sign with a rival club" kind of implies that Mestrov is in the phone offering him up. Really? Could the real reason be Couldn't match the rivals offer , $$$ and length of deal? Couldn't meet the players terms, length of deal, position...

    Jamie Humphreys

    A quick google search has a preseason article on him where it was all based around him moving to hooker, midway through last year and preseason this year. Another search on the NSWRL website lists the games from this year, so far he has been named as 4 x Hooker 4 x interchange bench 6 x Five...

    Our missing players vs last night

    But is debuting a halfback with so many outs and others busted really the right thing to do for him? Sure if it was just one or two out then expect the call up, but l understand why he wasn't.

    Manly fans watching this game tonight

    Yep, and the standard "but they had players out too" doesn't take into account they still had Cook, Kaloamatangi, Wighton, Walker & Arrow playing. Regardless of their current form they're all Rep players who apart from Cook were still being spoken about as possibles for this current SOO series...

    MVP: Rd 15 v Dragons

    Been thinking of this all week and watched the game a few times when it's been on. So much better when it's hard to choose just three out of a great team performance 3. DCE - Not sure if he made the tactical changes at half time or the coach but he was the difference 2. Guac - Had some fire in...

    [Resurrected] The Beaver and Napper Show

    Ah, those big flags! My mum sewed one up for me, not sure how "big" it was but to a young kid like me it was huge. Memories of coming home from Brookie after a win with me hanging it out the back window of the car, we'd see heaps of others too, no chance these days. There also used to be a guy...

    Next weeks team?

    Almost, but as Brooks is named at 6 and Humphreys in the squad I'd say he'll debut at halfback.

    Next weeks team?

    Just goes to show how costly Alioai's suspension is. Could Siebs pull a shock and play Koula, Lawman or Schoupp at 6 with Brooks at 7?

    Pre-Game Souths V Manly [Round 16, 2024]

    When you consider we have 4 props, Jake, Guac, Croker, Garrick, DCE and Turbo missing from our top 17 l wouldn't really call it even.

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

    I really don't get how Annesley just pulls out one or two incidents and then drags out the explanation. Does it really solve anything or make us feel better? With the Guac try I can see both sides of the argument but I think it was more of a try than not if that makes sense. Burbo tries to go...

    All NRL Games [Round 15, 2024]

    This is what l don't get with MRC and judiciary. A fine or two weeks? Surely if it's bad enough to warrant two weeks ( with a challenge) then why only a pissantt fine? He's earning around $40k a game. The NRL always go on about the image of the game yet Mitchell runs in a long way to matters...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    I think he said in the Manly Way that it wasn't about money this year, just to prove to himself ( and others) that he's still got it or something along those lines. So could assume from that the two year extension wouldn't be breaking the bank and he's realistic with where he's at in his career.
