    Kaeo Weekes

    That it was. And it makes me happy seeing him do well. He didn't really have a path to full-time NRL with us, so it was good of the club to give him an early release, and he's really found a home at Canberra. Good on him. As for his speed, I saw an article this week that had him clocked as the...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Speaking of forwards and smart recruiting (sadly, not by us), how good is Erin Clark going for the Warriors? He may be the best Pasifika forward with a girl's name since our own Kylie Leuluai. Not exactly young in NRL terms (I think he's 27 or so now), but leaving the Gold Coast has done...

    2026 Captain

    Jesus H. Christ, God - Jake may be a plodder, but he's our plodder, maroon and white with every slow step he takes. Don't get all vengeful about it.

    All NRL Games [Round 9, 2025]

    He's from NSW. Central Coast, I think. His older brother (Josh?) came through our junior system.

    All NRL Games [Round 9, 2025]

    He was. Cronulla junior, big ups on him when we got him. Of all the young halves we've let go in recent memory, he's the one we should have hung onto, or at least given more opportunities to develop. But he picked up some injuries and there were always questions about his size. From memory he...

    No Magic Rd for us, you beauty.

    Any round I don't have to worry about Tom getting injured is a great round. (And if I had to watch him play a game on that rain-soaked Suncorp turf after it's been torn up by previous games, I would be terrified.)

    [Resurrected] Hasler named Titans coach after shock Holbrook exit

    If Des is in line for an early exit, he is right where he wants to be. Once the Titans bite the bullet and sack him, he can get back to doing what he loves to do best: discussing the finer points of contract law with his legal team and chasing a big payout from his former employers.

    Oh, look - it's the Roosters. Whoever would have guessed?

    Why Manly are the most frustrating team in the NRL

    The only explanation I can come up with, when everybody clearly knew that was not a 40/20, is that Lehi threw the ball away after they made the wrong call, and so maybe they figured they couldn't give us back possession. Still doesn't make much sense, but I like to think there was at least some...

    Dally M 2025

    Not a single point for Simpkin? Dally M judging at its finest.

    It's wild that we managed to beat the four-time defending premiers and the team currently running last in the same night!

    Post-Game Discussion Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    I figured we'd play better and that having Turbo back would be a huge lift, but I also thought we'd be too light on in the forwards to get the job done. Turns out we were not. That was one of the best wins I can remember in a while. As others have said, we managed to hold firm when the tide...

    MVP: Rd 8 v Panthers

    3. Simpkin. If we were looking for him to stake a claim to be our starting hooker, he did just that. More runs from dummy half in the one game than we've seen in the last five years. 2. Haumole. Terrifying man, and his hands were excellent tonight - great passing game (as opposed to last week...

    Caleb Navale

    Good involvement in stopping that try on the line, too. He definitely has the makings of a good player, and it'd be great to get him more minutes in the top grade.

    Game Day: Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    See, this is why I think it's tough blaming performances like last week on the coach. If you don't keep throwing the ball away every time you have possession, you're a much better chance of staying in the game. But this has been a great improvement so far. Good control, good defence. And...

    Pre-Game Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    If Sean Keppie was still with us, he would easily be our number one prop. And even though he has improved at Souths, he is still very ordinary. That is how stretched we are for decent forwards.

    See the smile on Kurt Capewell after the game? Almost like he knows he'll be running into Ponga in a Christchurch nightclub toilet cubicle in a few hours' time…

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    I still can't see how $750K is a "lowball" offer to Cherry. He's been paid wheelbarrows full of money by the club over a long period of time. He's also 37 years old. That offer would have taken that into account. It would also take into account the club's salary cap position overall. The hope...
