    Post-Game Discussion Knights V Manly [Round 14, 2025]

    Hard to get anywhere near it. It’s a ****ing nightmare I used to drop my car off in the morning at ground and uber it there. Not an option for you obviously. Parking at Nerang station and getting train there might be best option Or get a lift with Seibs… can’t imagine him having any mates...

    Post-Game Discussion Knights V Manly [Round 14, 2025]

    DCE is a fraud at club level. How many games in 10 years that should have been iced haven’t been. Fogarty ices that game every single time. Like many I can’t wait to see the back of him. That kick on half time is the perfect metaphor for his selfish career which has yielded a decade of nothing...

    Mid-season Report Card

    I have no inside info 2027 ? I can just imagine us competing with the Bears and Papua chasing an elite forward. I think the days of nice beaches doesn’t quite get it done these days. A rare elite forward will cost 1 mill or more for the 2027 season . God knows what the truly elite like Haas...

    Mid-season Report Card

    The approach has to be identifying young “affordable “ high talent and backing them to make the leap. Good luck signing elite forwards given 1. Our front office and ownership is generally regarded as a basket case ( though Mestrov showing good signs I think ) And more importantly .. 2. The...

    Mid-season Report Card

    B minus for me Talented backs tissuing over a second rate pack and weak bench Great to watch when rolling , when pressured we roll over My issue isn’t this year - making the 8 would be nice and is possible but we would be fodder in semis when whips are cracking In reality to make top 8 they...

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    Sorry , can’t see that in backs man to man Arthur’s v Levi - not much in it. Arthur’s in Maroons 20 for origin 1 Cobbo (origin player ) > Saab Mariner > TT Garrick > Shibasaki Staggs ( origin player ) = Koula Mam > Brooks ) “at Brookie”? He’s been awful , we lost our last three at home in...

    Lehi deserves the 1

    Think both arguments have merit. Tom fit then he is far superior, not fit then not much in it . Personally I think our fortunes with either there is pretty much the same unless we address the blindingly obvious …. We are not winning anything with the worst ( or close to) pack in the comp...

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    Not sure about highly favoured Home ground? - lost last 3 Lost 5 from last 7 Except 2021 I think they have been beating us for fun lately , admittedly at home Man for man on paper they beat us easily but everything points to big internal trouble in both camps so hard to pick I think they...

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    He’s right It’s Gary Winter and co all over again Look at all the good teams , mobile fast forwards with impact off bench and a good hooker .. then look at ours The Melbourne game a few weeks ago lit our deficiencies up in lights .. a two year old can see the way the games is going . The sad...

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    We have lost our last three at home and 5 of our last 7. The only reason you could see see us as favourites would seem to be the Brookie factor yet that seems non existent- arguably our worst performances have been at home I’d say bookies are counting on Cardigan and Haas not backing up. If...

    Mainly ain't Manly anymore

    Yep Talk to the older guys that played with him or knew him well Every year I attend the old boys / fans function on the Gold Coast at Yacht Club then Burleigh Bears. A lot of them now call GC home.Quite a few legends and first graders/ lower grades. Great days with a consistent theme. The...

    Galvin

    And won a comp with Burleigh Bears and dominated at that level. Watch his 2019 GF win over Redcliffe .Was inspirational at BB. Had a season at Titans / covid / etc Not every player blooms early You don’t lead try involvements in NRL as a fringe player Corey Walker ring a bell.

    Metcalf

    Easy answer They could have been catered for by NOT recruiting Brookes or dropping him after the abomination “ free throw at stumps “ fiasco and his many **** games since .Why is Brookes a roadblock to young talent? He fails for ten years at tigers yet he’s the roadblock. I thought he may have...

    Metcalf

    That’s my point. He played zero games while blokes failed above him and beside him. The games I saw, quite a few , he had obvious talent. He got let go by the sharks the second time because he had blokes in front of him who play extremely well and win games , especially against us lately ...

    Metcalf

    Seem to read a lot of talk about Weekes, Humphrey , Fainu etc leaving. Might not be common knowledge and he gets less attention but Luke Metcalf leads the Dally M table right now and the Warriors may lead the comp at the end of the weekend - he replaced a legend. Metcalf was a junior prodigy...

    Pre-Game Cowboys V Manly [Round 11, 2025]

    I get that but to me the Sharks game wreaked of the straw that broke the camels back re team morale. The difference now is DCE has definitely checked out. You could see it in the press conference and the coach looks like he has no answers I actually thought we would beat Penrith too We had...

    Pre-Game Cowboys V Manly [Round 11, 2025]

    Out pack and bench are woeful Paseka and Aloia , although not great are at least competitive We’ll get slaughtered down the middle DCE has given up Tommy is hurting Overall the incredibly weak forward pack and DCE issue around morale is insurmountable in my opinion I expect a shellacking to be...

    Jake T.

    Take away the great bloke, wonderful performances for years and just stare at the screen and watch him play. He would not be considered for any top 4 side at prop or 13 or bench ( as he doesn’t add anything from bench ) As much as we all love him he is done. If we actually had a pack that could...

    Young Forwards - Do we have any?

    Yep Next week and no byes over origin will finish that pipe dream These “regular” pigs would not even look like making a top 4 side 17 Two or three might make a top 8 side 17 Waddell Ben T Simpkin ( but has potential ) Aloia Sipley Jake ( yes Jake ) Frog Brown Lodge Chee Kam Gordie CTK Tevaga...
