    Pre-Game Souths v Manly [Finals Week 3, 2021]

    The odds on the NRL site haven't - Manly started 1.77 | 2.00 - moved out to 2.05, then 2.10. Now Manly 2.15. Souths have shortened to 1.74 in that same time, having moved to 1.70 in that time at one stage (I think..) I abhor gambling on sports so don't have a good understanding of what that...

    Time to Unleash Moses the Monster in the centres

    Suli ate Gagai's soul in 2019. Feeling hungry again Moses? I bloody hope so...

    The nutty professor

    I just like how Des looks like he has just got out of the surf at North Narra and mussed up his hair with his towel to dry it off, leaving it all salty and tangled. His breathlessness in the press conference is because the surf was epic, and he was committed. He doesn't treat media gronks that...

    Pre-Game Souths v Manly [Finals Week 3, 2021]

    If Souths can't rise to beat us in 2013 after McGuire's mother passed away, then they ain't rising to beat us because Reynolds is retiring in sunny Queensland, rather than graffiti-laden gentrified South Sydney. Suli/Parker or otherwise.

    Sipley v Lawton - surely it's a no brainer

    Lawton is a better all-rounder, and relying on Walker to be the utility in this regard is sub-optimal. Walker's form in his current interchange role has been sublime. Looking at the Rabbit's bench of Marshall/Arrow/Burgess/Host, what we are packing currently is similar - if anything Manly have...

    Pre-Game Souths v Manly [Finals Week 3, 2021]

    So no Mansour after all. Shame. Paulo, is less experienced but seems to hold up ok considering the bunnies have won every game he has played in. C.Walker is dynamic on the Souths attacking Left-edge (where Johnson gets all his meat pies) - so it will hit the same soft-spot the Storm exposed...

    Pre-Game Souths v Manly [Finals Week 3, 2021]

    I'd start Keppie again personally. Kid showed he was up for it against a very solid forward pack, and got us the go-forward we needed early. Marty had a decent game when he came on, but Keppie was in my top-3 MVP last week, thought he was that impactful. The Souths pack is intimidating, but...

    Pre-Game Souths v Manly [Finals Week 3, 2021]

    News is Mansour might come back into the Souths lineup at the expense of Paulo. I think this would help us if it happens, and i'd be targeting his side, and fullback Taaffe heavily - especially in the air. Taaffe did well against Penrith, but To'o/Staines/Edwards is nowhere near the threat to...

    Storm v Penrith ( Finals week 3 2021 )

    Storm will win this I believe. Penrith have recently been sub-optimal with the recent form a long way from earlier in the year when they beat Melbourne and had their huge win-streak. To'o being injured is a huge out for them. Cleary is easily the weakest of the remaining coaches, but if he...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    There is definitely something in the stats that suggests Schuster is a tad tired, flat, carrying a niggle, or his role has changed in the team. It's understandable for a 20 year-old who has pumped out 20 games in a debut season to be tired at this stage of the season - most of the games were in...

    Pre-Game Souths v Manly [Finals Week 3, 2021]

    Bunnies completed at 84% against Penrith, conceded less penalties and less ruck infringements. Missed less tackles and made less errors. If they do that against us it will be hard to get over them. the tries are going to come from their very talented backline, but it's their forwards where...

    Milking Penalties ( 2022)

    Proposing time off the field to assess "milking" is tough in some situations. When we played the Storm, Garrick almost went over in the corner and if I recall, Jarome Hughes slid in late and collected Reuben in the face with his knees. I was critical of Garrick at the time for not milking, as...

    Des's Pressie

    No. Fk no. Des does not need any criticism over a press conference - not with the inane questioning of this ill-researched and lazy media scum that gravitates towards clickbait over substance, lobs the same pointless questions at Des week after week - and what.... we are supposed to chastise HIM...

    Penrith v Parramatta [Week 2 finals, 2021]

    After we beat Souths on Friday night, we are hopefully watching a similar match between the Storm and the winner of this game, bashing each other with evident dislike for the opposition.

    Penrith v Parramatta [Week 2 finals, 2021]

    Why is Pangai Jr still playing for Penrith? I thought one of the caveats for these late-season signings was that they couldn't play finals football. Is that assumption wrong? Apparently, since Pangai is still out there I guess...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Roosters [Finals Week 2, 2021]

    Pleased with that outcome. Didn't seem to have any injuries, although might keep an eye on Parker he looked a bit dusty at times. Keppie was great tonight, really happy. Guac also rediscovered some mongrel. Foran, Walker and DCE were all fantastic. Harper bounced back. Turbo turned it on...

    Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Finals Week 2, 2021]

    We had any 6-agains this 2nd half? Sure as hell doesn't feel like it, and Rooters are smothering us whilst being gassed. Such rubbish. Skinniest 10m ever, and lying all over us in the ruck.
