    Aaron Woods ???

    Have heard from a mate who is usually on the money that Sharon will at Manly next year. Des views him as a good mentor for our young forwards in the squad.

    The statistic we must improve

    We dominated the areas we had to tonight. However that was very much a result of how poor the Chooks were. Hopefully we realise how important field position is?

    Game Plan

    I agree, I don’t think it was a lack of effort but more so poor execution, early errors gave them an advantage. From there Melbourne just kept tightening the screws and rather than complete sets, kick to corners and tackle hard we played really panicked footy which just kept compounding the...

    The statistic we must improve

    In our favour tonight is that Easts are poor in very similar areas. The Roosters make the fourth-most missed tackles in the competition, to go with the most errors in the competition, and give away the second-most penalties. The only way the Sea Eagles' dangerous attack was shut down last week...

    The statistic we must improve

    I think it also shows that we aren’t being patient enough with the footy. We try to score off almost every set and what the top teams do so well is play patient footy waiting for the best opportunities to strike. We clearly score some spectacular tries but lack of patience places us under...

    The statistic we must improve

    The striking statistic that stands out to me is field position. This year there were four teams who held their opponents to more than 60% of play the balls in their own half, a feat that only occurred once since 2014 (the Panthers in 2020). At the other end of the scale Manly are dead last with...

    Game Plan

    Looking at the roosters game last week all of their tries came off the back of quick play the balls and playing really direct footy angling back in behind the ruck. Controlling ruck speed will be the biggest factor in this match, they will inevitably get some fast play the balls the key man...

    I have a thick skin 🤷‍♂️ Philosophy has taught me to rely on my own convictions rather than on the judgements of others and to concern myself less with whether I am well thought of than whether what I do or say is evil.

    Off Contract for 2022. With the Panthers facing salary cap pressure to keep their team together he's one that may (pardon the pun) be squeezed out. I see a place for him in the Maroon & White and the more I think about it the more I like it. Case for: I'd be looking to sign him as a versatile...

    Sam Verrils facing 2 weeks

    Verrills' representative James McLeod says that "if you're going to apply critical scrutiny", Verrills may have had a "better chance" of avoiding contact with Kelly's face if he didn't get up on his toes before impact. However, he says that was not an "inherently problematic" or "uncommon...

    Sam Verrils facing 2 weeks

    6.49pm: Making the case for Verrills, James McLeod's argument centres on a few key arguments: there was low force, Verrills did not drive his shoulder or step into contact and Tupouniua forced Kelly slightly sidewards into the Roosters hooker's shoulder. "There was never any launch of the right...

    Sam Verrils facing 2 weeks

    6.32pm: McGrath says there was "moderate force" in the tackle, and while that was chiefly generated by Kelly's running speed, he argues Verrills should have taken it into account as per his duty of care. "In setting himself for this tackle, player Verrills was always aiming to make the tackle...

    Not saying he’d be a fit for us necessarily but he aggressively denies the rumour and attacked the media on his way out of Canberra too

    NRL TEAMS MONITOR BATEMAN In other news, there have been whispers John Bateman’s situation overseas is being monitored closely by a few NRL clubs. Bateman has had an injury-affected return to play with Wigan since leaving the Canberra Raiders last year. The Australian’s Brent Read reported...

    Horhay

    First of all would like to echo the sentiment that Jorge was an underrated player. He would consistently turn up for our team, was the best metre making winger in the comp for many years, a clinical finisher and gave us some of the biggest hits we’ve ever seen. I don’t think he’ll be forgotten...
