    Is Mestrov really our Messiah?

    Mestrov opting out of his planned N R L 360 appearance last night should set the tone on how things should proceed ongoing and trying to dial down the temperature to a more sensible level Surely that most or all of the detail or purported detail or versions and of any general interest has...

    2026 halves plan

    Some of those suggestions naturally would be based on the proviso of Brooks reverting to 7 for 26

    2026 halves plan

    Looking more unlikely for Fogarty to take up any Manly offer . Know that Arthur has played the occasional game at 6 for Manly but not sure if he would be the answer there however would be more suited then Turbo . Talau had that bit of a brief stint there just after mid season last...

    2026 halves plan

    That "s the way it could be heading and only watch highlights with his play but does not seem to lack general speed once he winds up a bit . Maybe will not develop into a Yeo type 13 but could have the credentials to do a reasonable job there Have Navale who looks like coming on well and may...

    Boo hooing DCE is not the way forward

    Not too sure whether it was D C E being so long in a Manly jersey now or just going into a total support Manly mode but personally just did not register associating D C E with any off field issues or past week antics yesterday when he was playing .Probably a combination of both ...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Eels [Round 4, 2025]

    Scoreline probably a fair indication of the difference between the sides , even allowing for the disallowed Eels tries as Manly pretty much bombed a couple . Maybe not ideal conditions for open footy but really do not go for the more one out plays for the mid range set options when spreading...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Don 't think it really matters in terms of Humphreys situation , whatever range of reasons or main reason, he or his management decided to move on towards the latter stages of last season . D C E was still contracted for season 25 and another year or expectation of being mainly at Blacktown...

    Game Day: Manly V Eels [Round 4, 2025]

    Know that showers are forecast but as long as it is not a particularly wet track , should not affect Manly or their preferred style of play that much . More the prediction of the strong winds , certainly going to make the attacking kick high balls challenging for both sides . Still some good...

    Sure that would have made all the difference if he would have given a clear indication of his intentions late last year or so and everybody could have just come to terms with and accepted it respectfully and just got on with things . And especially for the club 's benefit on future planning ...

    The Jake Conundrum

    Not that age is everything but what , Jake will be 33 and Turbo 31 in season 27 . Most likely a 2 year deal for Jake and maybe the same for Turbo if his body is holding up and playing some reasonable amount of games leading up to that time . Maybe not that unreasonable for jake at say 650 K...

    Jamal Fogarty

    Fogarty would be the safe option but must be a bit of doubt whether he can actually be available and really should not be paying overs , especially for 2 years . Quite impressed with the Rooster"s Sandon Smith at least ability wise . Really can not see Turbo playing at 6 , Brooks in general...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Sure that D C E will always be respected for his footy ability and playing at a top level for so long and his durability . Just a shame that he will be less respected ongoing with this recent development and again , largely preventable in many ways if he had applied a bit more discretion and...

    Jamal Fogarty

    Used to like @ Snakes input as well , especially with his apparent closer in club connections previously . But also quite a few others of course apart from the ones you referred to . Sure that they would all be welcomed back if returning would be of some interest to them .

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Wasn "t under any obligation but D C E in his capacity as a leading long term player and captain really should have had the common courtesy and at least some responsibility to give some reasonable notice not too much longer after he had decided to part ways with Manly . Just can not envisage...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Guess one concern is whether D C E may consciencely or even sub consciencely go into some form of a self preservation mode body and footy wise soon or for the remainder of the season with his most likely intention or plans to take up a lucrative deal elsewhere for 26 and 27 . And whenever he...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Quite likely for Manly ] to be playing against D C E " s future team once , [ but no biggie if twice ] for next season and maybe similar in one more after that . And could even be away from Brookie if it is one occasion but sure that Manly fans would have adjusted regardless with his moving...

    apocalypse or opportunity ...

    Really only see Lehi "s future primarily as a fullback , maybe some prospect as a 6 . Plenty of back line players who can slot into different positions but for a 7 role and at N R L level , normally some level of 7 background and capability required .Purdie from the Cowboys essentially had a...

    Heard last night that Bullemor was a good chance of being re signed by Manly quite soon which would be positive news and hopefully much more simple and straightforward then this present D C E fracus

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Pretty sure that the Bunnies had signed Jamie Humphryes before the end of last season so fair to say that the club would not have had any definite idea what D C E "s future intentions were at that stage Maybe a fairly high priority to now try and fast track Walsh who does seem to have...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    After watching D C E :s interview and his claim that he made a call last December to not re sign with Manly and not notifying the club at that stage or thereabouts , just does not seem to stack up in the credibility stakes in terms of not having some alternative considerations or fairly firm...
