    Can Harper fight back ?

    I remember when we cracked the finals in 2005 with a young squad and Timana Tahu gave Matai a bath at centre as we were blitzed by Parra. Matai obviously went on to be more remembered for his defence than attack, so I don't write off Harper. What I would say is twice against the Storm they have...

    If we don’t beat the Roosters, this season will be a failure.

    I wouldn't call it a failure - I've enjoyed it greatly from round 5 onwards and anything to relieve the lockdown gloom (I live in Melbourne) is fantastic. But it would be disappointing considering how this side has captured the imagination, not just of us Manly fans but I think the whole league...

    Resting Players Works

    You earn the luxury of resting players. If we had lost to the Cowboys and come fifth I see no guarantee we wouldn't have put up a bumbling performance against the Titans, who played about as well they could, and been out in one. Let's see if the theory holds with Parra. On the brighter side our...

    Harper, Schuster & Olakau'atu

    It's probably the worst Manly player performance in a big game since Wolfie in the 2013 GF. I take no satisfaction in saying that I like both players

    Morgan Harper

    Perhaps third time's a charm but twice the Storm have primarily attacked Harper's side (Bromwich scored near identical tries) and the second time it went even better for them. I just don'[t fancy giving them a third go. Yes Harper laid a hand on Olam but that was about it. I don't say this with...

    Changes

    This is just forum talk because I know Des is nothing if not loyal and values steadiness. But if you were to make radical - "hail mary" let's try something changes (and I never coolly thought we would win it this year, of course I sometimes I got swept up by hope) this is what I would do. Our...

    Morgan Harper

    Harper probably deserves a shot at redemption but clearly every other side will target him from now on. Also he just can't go up against Olam again, he is no physical match. Probably has to be Suli for all his sometimes waywardness

    Wings and a prayer: Saab’s tribute to woman who ‘supported me all my life’

    Lovely story. I watched the film Race last night about Jesse Owens and his coach got him special shoes to run in the Berlin Olympics from the maker who later became Adidas. Owens did alright in them, I hope Saab bags four tries in tribute.

    Who damages Turbo tonight?

    Mods I request you remove this thread as bad luck. It wasn't so long ago I peered through my fingers every time Turbo ran the ball, expeccting the back of the thigh clutch and then crumble. Also the Crocker hit is too bad a memory. Today he'd be sent off, then it wasn't even a penalty

    Game Day: Storm v Manly [Finals 1, 2021]

    Huh, come back as reserve grader. That means I don't get to play at all now!

    Jake the tryscorer

    I heard that Manly never lost when both Stewart brothers scored. Maybe that's true of Tom and Jake? Been the case the last two matches but only just against the Warriors. I don't claim any of this is backed by actual research.

    Going to the game....

    As a Manly fan in exile I plan to go and would like to know where Sea Eagles fans are likely to be in the ground

    The little things

    When the game went to golden point I knew we would lose. The Doggies are good at that, we aren't. One non-league fan asked me why Manly wasn't going for the field goal in our last set. He was confused because we went wide in a play and then our attempt was the normal panic/scramble that overly...

    Tonights game plan

    We definitely need to shepherd those underneath the bombs. It seemed noticeable agains the Cowboys (and in other games) that our chasers couldn't even get to their catchers but theirs were pouring through. Mind you the only team I can think of penalised for protecting the catcher all year was...

    Tribute to Glenn 'Gifty' Stewart

    It doesn't include one of his greatest moments. The grubber from nearly off our own line for Michael Robertson in the 2011 GF that set up the second try. Sterling said it could have been the most audacious bit of play he had ever seen in a GF.

    Manly v Rabbids [Round Finals Week 1 2014]

    I am starting to feel hopeful about this game - even though realistically I probably shouldn't. Souths advantages are obvious, our injuries, the ground, the scheduling, our poor form and their monster pack that rolled over the top of us last time. And yet... It looks like Brett Stewart will...

    Time for Eagles to swoop: Foran

    So according to this Richie Fa’aoso is still a chance to play, unlikely as that seems
