    Game Day: Manly V Storm [Round 5, 2025]

    Not using Haumole well enough so far, wouldn’t mind seeing Haumole go to the left for 15-20 minutes, he would make it hard for Storm.

    Game Day: Manly V Storm [Round 5, 2025]

    Haumole is getting no ball, right edge attack looks horrible today so far..

    2026 halves plan

    If there was any word that DCE is going to the Dolphins an early player swap could be negotiated, this was reported by Danny Weidler. Stranded Dolphin? Here could be an interesting spin-off from Cherry-Evans’ looming Sea Eagles exit. Rival clubs are watching very closely to see where he ends...

    Pre-Game Manly V Storm [Round 5, 2025]

    A trip down memory lane.. Danny Weirdler looks like he had a perm back in the interviews

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    I understand your frustration there, though retaliation with bitterness will have a knock on effect in limiting club sponsors exposure if they were to place a ban on channel nine. Bitterness and the lack of ability from DCE and his camp to get the stinky fish out on the table and get their...

    Is 'The Bull" the Most improved player in NRL

    Watching him in the two trials and the first four games he is running harder at the defensive line, he has had good leg speed and footwork for a while. He definitely stands out from any other middle forward the club have played this season, with Paseka and Haumole having signed contracts with...

    Gordie will look like a superstar with a front row of Haas, Terrell May and Tino at 13.

    Pre-Game Manly V Storm [Round 5, 2025]

    For me it didn’t work the best with two light bodies against the Raiders, using that as a lesson learned Faulalo had 12 carries for 65 meters and only 17 meters post contact, you want more impact with tough carries and that’s not part of what he offers.

    Pre-Game Manly V Storm [Round 5, 2025]

    I got concerns with Faulalo and Hoppa in the back three together, I think Hoppa, Garrick and Saab are better together. Schoupp is carrying the ball strongly and making good post contact meters, I would play him at right centre, with Turbo and Talau out I think Schoupp can do more with the...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    This kid Junior Nsemba’ can make it in the NRL, would take a bit to get him away from Wigan, the connections Manly have with Super League is a good starting point. Can play right or left edge. He was lethal against Salford on the weekend. Career highlights

    Frank Ponissi says he is a big chance of playing on Sunday, if he does Wishart to the bench and Garlick drops out..

    NSW Cup 2025

    Konz played 13 in Flegg, but he looked good playing nine. Dunford played some minutes in the middle since returning from suspension, the relegation to the bench I assume is for Matterson (in the 30 man squad) and Navale (development contract) to be in the 13, in saying that it also benefits...

    Albert Hopoate Jnr

    They maybe correct, though I could only find the three written, the two he suffered when he was at Manly impacted his leg speed along with his body getting bigger.

    Is Mestrov really our Messiah?

    From negotiations last year, from what I have read and listened to there was a remuneration amount discussed in November 2024.

Aaron Schoupp 4. Jordan Swann 5. Raymond Tuaimalo Vaega 6. Brandon Wakeham 7. Jake Arthur 8. Aitasi James...

    Albert Hopoate Jnr

    ACL injuries ended up restricting Albert with his speed, not good news reading he has suffered another one. Albert Hopoate’s season is over after suffering his third ACL injury in NSW Cup. He previously required consecutive ACL reconstructions in 2018 and 2019. Surgery is planned, with an...

    Is Mestrov really our Messiah?

    From what I gather there was no official contract offered it was a remuneration figure as a starting point, this is the challenge from Weirdler seeking official evidence of the document trail..

    Is Mestrov really our Messiah?

    This has crossed my mind when thinking of the announcement on channel nine, Daly mentioned some people at the club may not be aware of a contract not being offered, I assume this is Penn he was referring to. I don’t know what term is used in professional sport where a player takes a grievance...

    Is Mestrov really our Messiah?

    I don’t think that would gain the club any credibility, they would lose credibility and trust from sharing information like that, imagine trying to attract people to the club when you leak controlled personal information.
