    Game Day: Manly V Tigers [Round 17, 2025]

    150% accurate. Absolutely inexcusable, even in this NRL dustbin "everyone gets a prize" era. Yeah, a prize at both ends of the ladder.

    Is the draft the only way to even the playing field?

    Caps only work in isolated sports like NFL and AFL. Other than retirement, there is nowhere else to go except where the draft sends you. Any NRL player who doesn't like where the cap has sent them, or doesn't want to wait around to find out, can negotiate deals and go to Super League, RU or even...

    The Manly DNA

    Yes should be replayed a lot more in NRL publicity.

    The Manly DNA

    No Manly team has ever made it to a GF under a coach who wasn't a Manly player. O'Connell & Paskins made their debut for Manly as a captain-coach. Pepperell was a pom. Lowe a kiwi. GF winners: Willey, Stanton, Fulton, Hasler. Apart from these four men other Manly coaches to reach a GF were...

    We are Laughing stock of the NRL

    Manly's only real defence option in 2025 is to be in possession of the ball as much as possible. Having to actually tackle and hold the opposition out, that's too much to expect.

    We keep talking about changing the team ... what about this lot?

    Look how long that list of names is! Every NRL club has that. That's why the argument that the salary cap is to stop clubs spending too much & going broke is nonsense. They can spend like a wild sailor on whatever they want, so long as it isn't on players. Bring back the 1970s. No cap. Manly...

    New coach Poll

    Phil Blake got let go from his current RU coach role this week.

    New coach Poll

    Manly has never won a premiership without a coach who was a former Manly player. Not going back to Hasler. Cleary is only option from the current NRL coaches. Ballin is not experienced enough. Vote 1 GEOFF TOOVEY

    Game Day: Titans V Manly [Round 15, 2025]

    If DCE can't steer tonight's Manly team home to a comfortable victory, you'd have to have doubts he would be of any value to the Roosters for 2026. Their squad isn't exactly the 1993 Broncos either.

    i'm more troubled by the plural of the play-the-ball.

    Game Day: Knights V Manly [Round 14, 2025]

    The NRL has been deliberately made into a snakes and ladders competition. Being a conventional rugby league team means nothing, even dominating for 70 mins and leading by 20 points. A junk team will every now and then win when the snakes combine to neuter the better side.

    Lehi needs a nickname

    I think 'Lehi' is pretty unique on its own.

    1994 at 20:56 looks to me that it is gone.

    A bunker. It was still there in 1986. Visible in the opening crowd shot here.
