    Siosiua Taukeiaho

    This guy just gets better and better with each game. One of our best last night and the mainstay of our middles for most of the season. Smart bargain basement buy that I would be upgrading sooner rather than later.

    Why Manly are the most frustrating team in the NRL

    There were two bad decisions against the Eagles in that 2nd half that had a massive momentum shift. In addition to the Penrith 40/20 you mention there was also the Penrith bomb that Turbo took with his foot clearly on our try line. That should have been our 20 metre tap instead of a goal line...

    Seibold presser ..

    He needs to somehow transfer that emotion (and hopefully passion) to the team this week. I am not sure they can play that badly again yet they only lost by 2 points. I think a newly rejuvenated Penrith will bring out the best in the boys next week. The question is....can Seibold?

    The Clean Out 2025 Edition

    You missed the 3rd "secret weapon". That's a guy called Cameron Ciraldo. He was a big part of the attraction for new players and today has got the Dogs playing some beautiful football. They are relentless in both attack and defence. Towards the end of the game against Souths, they were awarded a...

    Tof Sipley

    Been referred straight to judiciary for THAT tackle. Saints player that was tackled apparently out for 3 months. I think we loose Sips possibly 4-6 weeks.

    Tommy Talau

    Looking somewhat bulkier / beefier. Would look very good partnering Haumole in that 2nd row. I would have him on the bench covering backline and backrow.

    Manase

    I cant believe we are still talking about this guy. He was a disgrace to his family and a disgrace to our great club and colours. Lets all move on.

    Galvin

    Galvin is definitely a good player and (probably) will be generational. So yes we need to be in this discussion with him which "legally" cannot start until Nov. However what is absolutely a far more pressing priority is to restructure our engine room. To do that we will need to restructure some...

    How do we unlock Koula?

    I have commented on Tolu before and don't believe he is a centre....nor a FB. I would be very surprised if he played centre in his junior days. I am not sure he has that ability to beat his man one on one close up. Definitely can do out in the open spaces but not in close say centre to centre...

    Jason King

    I am an unabashed Mestrov supporter. I think he has done a great job since coming on board. However I agree with you that his on air offer was poor judgement. We are all entitled to make a mistake and that was definitely a mistake imo. The bigger judgement question in my mind however is that...

    [Resurrected] Turbo injury,healt..wait..injury - updates

    Looks like the consensus is to leave Turbo where he is. Just as well I am not he coach as I would have most of you guys offside.....and Tom in the centre!!! Fingers crossed for the guy and for the team.

    [Resurrected] Turbo injury,healt..wait..injury - updates

    Almost bordering on that famous definition of madness. After only two matches into a very long season, I would be making some permanent and structural changes right now before the season gets away from us. Firstly there is absolutely no doubt Turbo is the best fullback in the world but I...

    Lehi Hopoate

    Yes same here. That was one of the many surprises from Friday night. I know he has some toe but failed to put his foot down a number of times where he had that opportunity. Looked injured / reluctant to stretch out.

    > Siosiua Taukeiaho <

    We absolutely missed him last night and yes we were a shambles....not only in the forwards but right across the park. He may have only played 22 minutes last week but I thought he was easily the most dominant forward in the middle. I would not mind betting we have Taukehaio and Lodge as our...

    Run Koula Run

    I still maintain that Tolu is NOT a centre. I have always seen him as a winger in the Brian To'o mould. Lightning fast and strong. Lehi on the other hand should be his centre. Much more creative and smart (footy wise). Something I think Siebold should consider. Much better fit imo.

    > Siosiua Taukeiaho <

    I thought he played well. Particularly given this was his first major hit out in 2 years. He certainly has a strong presence about him that we have lacked over last few seasons. If he can stay fit he will be a major addition to our forwards this year.

    [Resurrected] Paseka

    Taniela has progressed well over the last few years. Indispensable to our 17 and integral cog I think to us potentially winning a GF. He is not the Alpha beast some of us want him to be and he is certainly not the leader of our pack. Nor will he ever be (IMO). But still a massive part of our...

    One has to go ... who ?

    Because the issue we have is in the forwards....not the backs. The other option I see is Tolu going to 14 on the bench and Tommy Talau staying in the centres. Got to have both guys in the 17.

    One has to go ... who ?

    Just looking at the pics of our 2025 Season Launch on the Eagles website. There is one pic there of Haumole and Tommy Talau (and Simkins). Got to say TT is almost same size as Haumole. I could not help thinking (potentially) what a great backrow combination that might make. Also solves our...
