    Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    I agree. But I think the period in the second half when they had 91% possession was the reason why we were too gassed to stop the offloads. Without that period, I reckon we would have been a lot more effective in the middle. The defence out wide is still a worry though.

    Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    Agree. As much as we copped some dud calls, we have to look at our own deficiencies before we start blaming others. We let a team that should not have been able to compete with us eek out a close win. Our defence needs to drastically improve.

    Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    Unfortunately you're right Bozo. Yeah we got some tough calls against us but without the errors, they wouldn't have been a factor. I know which team I'd rather be supporting. We are a far better side than them.

    Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    We made a lot of errors. I concede that. We all saw the officiating. Nothing more needs to be said. But I saw enough to suggest we'll be too good at home and I can't see it being close. I'll be piling on to 13+.

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

    The rot started when Burbo screwed up the play the ball. But the ref hasn't helped. Gutho was tackled on the 6th and he let it go. Turbo was tackled before he got the ball. Even possession and refereeing and we should get home.

    RIP PHIL LOWE

    Sad news and a great player. I remember his running style. Tall, wide running and hard to drag down. Tough as old boots too back when rugby league players got away with plenty. Condolences to his family.

    MVP: Rd 2 v Roosters

    3 - Paseka. I don't think I've ever seen him make more post contact metres. Absolute beast. 2 - Oshay. As above. He was an absolute handful. 1 - Brooks. He's made a great start to his time with us. Long may it continue. Honourable mentions.....Koula, Garrick, Burbo, Brown, Jake, Ola.

    Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 2, 2024]

    The fact we're in front at half time and have dominated field position is encouraging. Especially when you look at who we're playing. Come on boys. Bring it home.

    UFC’s plans to put roof over 4 Pines Park

    And in other news..... Look for me on the cover of next month's Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition wearing a bikini on a beach in Jamaica. We've reached a whole new level of pie in the sky reporting. 0% chance of this happening.

    Alleged Leniu incident.

    Money is power. And I'm pretty sure Sam Kerr is being paid more than a London cop. Before I go off SER8, please understand that I'm not directing it at you. It's just that your post was a nice segway. If people want to scream blue murder about what Leniu said, then the least they can do is be...

    Alleged Leniu incident.

    The crucial element is intent. I happen to think that Ricky Gervais is one of the funniest buggers ever. And he sails pretty close to the wind at times taking your example of comedians. Russel Peters does the same. But I think his being Indian somehow disarms it somewhat. Especially since he...

    Alleged Leniu incident.

    I grew up and went to school in the 70's. I got called a wog relentlessly. I dealt with it because, frankly, I didn't have a choice. I didn't enjoy it. The insinuation that I was somehow a lesser human because of my Greek heritage was offensive. Yes, no physical harm came to me by being called...

    Redeeming tickets: HELP!

    I'm going to ring the membership team, tell them which games I want to attend and have them print my tickets and send them to me in an envelope. Surely that's not too much to ask.

    Pre-Game Manly v Rabbitohs [Round 1, 2024]

    Fair play....but..... But to prove that every mug has his day...... I think it's fair to say our Round 1 record is in the crapper.

    Pre-Game Manly v Rabbitohs [Round 1, 2024]

    ...and I just can't get confident that we can snap the streak. But I think that says more about how badly I want to win than anything else. How long has it been since we won in Rd 1 ?

    The Desperate and Despicable Tigers Hierarchy were Deceiving its fans

    For the first time in 20 years, I feel like the club doesn't care less about me because I'm not a 10 game member. They took my money and gave me entry to 5 games......as long as I navigate some new fangled system they dreamt up when all I had to do in the past was scan my card. We're not all 25...

    Redeeming tickets: HELP!

    I've been a member for 20 years too Who. Usually get a 3 or 5 game pass because I can't get to every game. And for the first time, I'm actually considering doing exactly as you've done as I fail to see what benefit there is since they removed every last piece of merchandise including the card...

    Mark's "Your Top 8 & Wooden Spoon" 2024 predictions thread.

    Picking the 8 is like trying to pick the Powerball numbers. But I remain undeterred. I'd say Penrith, Brisbane, Souths and Easts are a lock. The bottom of the 8 is where you can pretty much throw a dart. But I'm going to stick with Manly, Melbourne, Parra and Cronulla. My big improvers for...

    [Resurrected] 2024 Tipping Competition: Mals and ABTK - our new overlords

    Ok @Dan. Just signed up for another 24 weeks of "what was I thinking ?" Anything that helps keep the great Silvertails site going. Here's hoping the employment situation sorts itself out soon.

    I was really really trying last year even though you'd be excused for thinking the contrary was true. :rofl:
