    Pre-Game Manly V Warriors [Round 24, 2024]

    Seibold is clearly giving Lodge extended game time in Reggie’s before he comes back into 1st Grade. Koula at 18 is probably just named to see if he is fit, however, all our concussions, apart from Burbo have been backs, so there may be some logic to it. I guess we’ll see on the night.

    Back 5 with Koula returning ?

    At the moment, I couldn’t drop Talau, as he has been so good getting across the try line and strong in bringing the ball back. When Koula comes back, he has to be at Centre, as he just offers so much speed in attack and grunt in defence. Lehi is going to be a real star, however, he is still...

    Blacktown Workers

    The reaally scary thing is that Panthers had 5 players from NSW Cup playing in 1st Grade and in Flegg they had 5 players playing up a grade. Penrith has so much talent out there, and while fabulous players may leave, a new generation arrives of almost equal ability to take their place. Gus's...

    Jake’s personal messages

    Hi all I have run this past Dan and he has agreed for me to post this. It’s all about charity and those with illness (you can check it out). Jake will send a message to your friends, loved ones, your family or whomever you choose. My son got one and it was fabulous, as Jake castigated him...

    Has Bullemor improved big time ?

    I would be surprised if Nathan Brown has not had some impact on how Bully plays, and watching what Brown is achieving with speed and impact. I think Bully has really ‘upped the ante’ this year with his aggression. He’s a keeper.

    2024 Casualty Ward

    It's all so vague. Shortly, progressing well. Only Lodge, Turbo and Arthur have any definitive dates. I understand that Koula is an unknown and maybe 5 to 8 weeks, Croker is a real worry and he may have to retire

    The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

    It's a difficult one, as Garrick just doesn't do it for me at centre, as he is such a good winger. He is a finnisher while at Centre he doesn't seem to set up his winger. Several times this season, a try was on and Garrick chose the wrong option. I also question Garrick's defence at centre...

    Our missing players vs last night

    I thought it was a great opportunity for Navale, and he will be in the 17 in 2025 and maybe later in 2024.

    Game Day: Souths V Manly [Round 16, 2024]

    Geez I hope this an omen, as Flegg are well down on troups, with a lot of Shield players in the side. It looks like it will be dry at kick off for 1st grade and I am not sure with the backlines which team would prefer a dry track. In the forwards, I seriously cannot imagine Toff and Waddlell...

    Next weeks team?

    I just cannot see Sipley and Waddell playing against Souths, it’s BS. Sips has done his knee again and is unlikely to play for the rest of the season. Waddell could barely walk at the end of the game and I don’t care how good a physio you are, you are not going to fix that in a week. I reckon...

    Tommy Talau

    Tommy Talua has been someone who has exceded my expectations and has pushed Paulo back to reserves, which I never expected at the beginning of this year. I am not sure Talau is that good as a centre, however, while he lacks the speed of a winger, he knows how to find the line and his defefence...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Being young Hoppa on as a winger initially when Turbo returns, as he gives us cover at the back.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    I would be ecstatic if Brad Arthur came back to Manly. Believe it or not, he was the cornerstone of our defence when he worked with Toovs. He’s smart and he is loved by players, however, as head coach, he just couldn’t get Parra over the line, and this year, injuries to Moses, Brown and...

    Little Gordie

    Also, with Lawton leaving at the end of 2024, they’ll need to figure out who is going to be reserve hooker

    Injury squad

    Arthur definitely to half and Brooks to stay at 6. After Friday night against Storm, I’d stick with Lehi at FB and have Koula at Centre and Tolau back to wing

    Aaron Schoupp

    Okay, there’s obviously stuff we don’t know as to why we need another Centre/Winger. If the ‘powers that be’ determine we need another Centre, then maybe there are some injuries we are all unaware of and we need depth in that position. People on here ‘bagging’ the poor guy and he hasn’t even...

    Aaron Schoupp

    A swap of some sort may be on the cards or it may be family reasons. I don't think it will be long before we see Lehi Hopoate in first grade We cannot possibly do that know Ryan, as the salaries were pretty evenly spread among the players. Yes, some got more and some got less, however, not...

    Now THIS is an exciting signing !!

    As long as the young outstanding players he brings through are not managed by Tartak, I’ll be happy.
