    Manase Fainu

    I think there is a misunderstanding here. It was clearly stated the Fainu's contract is conditional to a Not Guilty verdict. I.e. if he's found guilty, contract is void. This means we pay him until the court's decision but not a day after IF found guilty

    Starting 9 for 2021

    Why don't we play Schuster at left centre, right outside Foran? What a potent edge that could be. Chez and Walks on the right. Cust at 9, a fit turbo at 1. Sirro at 13...

    Starting 9 for 2021

    Foran over Munster any day of the week! Oh how I would love Wighton to play for manly one day. Absolute champion footy player

    Andrew Davey from the Eels ?

    Hey def not talking about bagging a team or it's performances! I'm here to talk footy, and more specifically, manly...the good, the bad, and the ugly. But can't help myself sometimes if someone digresses and gives **** to a long time supporter simply for spreading the love

    Big congrats to Sticky and the green machine! How about those Brits... Young, Whitehead, and Bateman! Papali and tapine unstoppable. Very impressive pack, completely belted the roosters forwards at both ends all night.

    Andrew Davey from the Eels ?

    Well said. But let others spread their message in their own way, without the need to give them ****. Some of the best motivators in all industries have been copy and paste people, because the truest wisdoms are as old as time itself, and just sometimes it takes a few choice words to inspire a...

    Manly Sea Eagles 1998-1999: What happened?

    Unfortunately as Arko was ARL boss, it was his duty to fight tooth and nail. The other clubs, staying loyal, also put in but manly at the time had the resources. We were the victim of our own success, but love the man (and gus etc) for keeping the game for the people, instead of what would have...

    The purge is on!!

    100% agree. So instead of spending good $ on middles, I would be investing in a couple of Garner/Davey types. I'd also be telling Parker to put on 5kgs and train at 2nd row (he and gosiewski could be reserve grade cover for injury). Guac and one big name edge forward/centre must be signed up...

    Never understood why cronk never copped **** for being eloquent, diplomatic, and insightful, and DCE does

    The purge is on!!

    Fair point. I think however that Jake and Marty should be our starting props, and Sirro at 13. Jake can play big minutes. But point taken, we really are relying on potential here. I think you could say that about all positions unfortunately... In the meantime, we need massively good luck re...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Agree with his disappointing short kicking game this year. Think he was a little paranoid of giving away 7 tackle sets from the 20 especially with the rule changes. He'll need to absolutely get more repeat sets for us 2021. And yes Cleary def the form hb of 2020

    The purge is on!!

    Possibly Titmuss, Saddler, and Tuitavake. Plus let's not forget Jake! I count 10 middles in a 34-36 man roster. Realistically, that should be enough. If I tried to count our edge forwards stocks... a little concerning. I would love des to trial Paseka on an edge. Really athletic, got his aggro...

    Cartwright Gone

    We'd be kidding ourselves if we didn't bring in Kitey! As a player, was on par with Steve price and petero 70c, is an old manly boy who knows first hand what it takes to win the ruck, and I hear he's making a pretty decent go of coaching. Kite forwards and defensive coach, monaghan attack...

    What we need most

    Hopefully Garrick had an off-year at 68% which is def not good enough. Last year, he was kicking at 76% which is fine - although he does struggle particularly from the left side of the field. I think his kicking was on par with his on-field performances, I.e. confidence shot to ****. Still...

    Welch is gold. He would look great in a manly jersey but we don't need another middle forward imo

    New Winger - Jason Saab

    If the centres in your roster are not dominant, aggressive, and clever, then up and in will fail every time

    New Winger - Jason Saab

    You can't employ a slide defence as a structure "if up and in doesn't snuff out the play" - by then it's too late and you've been beat. It's common sense that the team scrambles to cover, especially the fullback. The red zone is entirely different, but having a readily trained slide defence is...
