Lehi the 1 Turbo centre
Being able to attract or sign the fit for purpose , good level key positional players is the other side of the equation and that is not going to be a given . Especially with the two new sides to form up soon Depending how Fogarty or Walsh [ and could include Large ] shape up and keeping...- manly al

Jake T.
Not too sure how long or playing stint at prop that Jake does take on [ or has ] once the likes of Brown and co have been injected into a game at 13 but would be fairly considerable Depending on the interchange circumstances in the future if Jake does just revert to a prop role but would...- manly al

Lehi the 1 Turbo centre
Still some general opinion , well from some N R L commentator perspective and some Manly quarters, that Manly "s best shot in any finals run would require Turbo at close to his best from full back but not sure that it is going to pan out that way. Might to able to keep on gaining more...- manly al

Another typical Many stuff up
Recall Sam Fainu had a couple of good games towards the latter part of 2023 on an edge and think in one game against the Dolphins filled in for a while quite capably as a centre . in normal circumstances , definitely could have been in the keeper category and mid range money and very likely...- manly al

Trump
Can understand Trump's determination to try and control and instigate some better border controls , especially with the Rio Grande separation area but may have to pull his head in a bit with the threat to take over New York's affairs if an apparent more radical so called leftest major is elected...- manly al

Another typical Many stuff up
Brooks hasn "t been at his best for quite few games this season but could not really see how Latu would have been an upgrade overall for him . Not a lot of difference contract wise either and Latu has just come out of a quite difficult run with injuries . May have been a case for Latu as a...- manly al

Jake T.
Hard one with Jake , showed on the weekend that he can still provide some really impressive defensive input but even if a bit more enthusiastic taking the ball up , can only expect a few continuing limitations there . Some logic that he should just mainly revert to a prop role but guess that...- manly al

Garrick general news thread
Thought that Snoz O " Conner might have been up there too in the Manly better goal kicking stats But quite a few other notable goal kickers over the years as well Ray Branighan , Tony Melrose and Brendon Reeves must have had quite respectable stats as well , Even Ox Orford may have done O K- manly al

Garrick general news thread
Probably goes a little bit better defensively as a winger [ Rubes] but has shown just a very capable footy player whether wing , center or fullback Still also , one of the best broken field runners in the club . Certainly going to need however his better level conversion rate going into the...- manly al

Post-Game Discussion Manly V Souths [Round 18, 2025]
Still a way to go to match it with the frontrunners [ well at this stage ] but good result in general Line speed did seem to go up a notch or two and only when the Bunnies started that more lateral ball movement did they seem to trouble the Manly defensive line and something that still needs...- manly al

Kaeo Weekes
Kaeo actually still had one more year on his contract when Manly released him . Probably not that much more money on offer for him at the Raiders and most likely just a mutual agreement to improve his i st grade prospects elsewhere and free up a bit of cap money from Manly "s perspective...- manly al

Game Day: Manly V Souths [Round 18, 2025]
Raiders and Storm did Manly a favor by keeping the Saints and Cows a bit further away from the 8 but irrespective , pretty much a must win to keep Manly in contention . Notable Alex Johnston being moved to full back, D C E and Brooks must be on their game to counter the Wighton - Humphreys...- manly al

I love Nathan Brown
Just have to see how Lodge goes and no more props going down . May still opt for Navale on the bench with Jass even starting as a prop and Simpkin starting as the 9 if Lodge cannot measure up anytime soon . Patolo does seem to have something to offer but not sure how far off he may be based on...- manly al

Why I Think Manly Will Never Compete Long-Term Again
No doubt with the present Manly club model or structure , should be some public record of the financial side of things , in terms of income and outlays and general distributions of funds . Whether at a board or A G M or whatever accountability procedures are applicable or required . All clubs...- manly al
