    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    When Parramatta signed Jason Ryles, their chairman talked pointedly about developing young players as part of the direction they were taking... i.e. he was given a remit to build a young squad. Whereas at Manly, our club owner and chairman stated publicly in 2022 that we already have a...

    Pre-Game Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]

    One of the better Manly wins I can remember from the past 20 years:

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    This is also O'Brien's 6th year at the Knights, they are currently 13th, they are also ranked dead last in points scored this season by a significant margin. Meanwhile, we are still in the Top 8 and in finals contention. I am of the opinion that the club should give the coach at least until the...

    Our current coach signed here when we'd made the finals 3 times in the previous 8 years, with his 3 predecessors all departing before the end of their contracts. Since then, we've gone 1/2 for finals appearances and we're currently 7th. Not outstanding, but better than our average over the...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Suggesting or inferring that anyone on Silvertails should be a Bears fan is tantamount to treason and should be a bannable offence...

    State of Origin, 2025.

    If Queensland win Game 1, then they don't get 9 penalties in a row in Game 2 which was the only reason they scraped home with a win. Yes, I said it.

    Jamie Humphreys

    In his 12 seasons at the Raiders, they finished in the top 4 twice, and after both of those times they missed the finals 1 or 2 seasons later. In his last 3 seasons there, they finished 10th, 8th and 8th. They (again) missed the finals last year. They are having a good year so far... but they...

    Tom and Lehi also have fullback as their best position... would we have preferred either of those leave instead?

    All NRL Games [Round 18, 2025]

    To me it feels like the Bulldogs may have overplayed their hand by aggressively signing and trying to jettison players when they're already doing very well.

    NRLW no 6 agains

    In my opinion, NRLW is not yet professional enough to have teams coached to wrestle and slow down the ruck, to the point where it becomes an entertainment problem that needs to be fixed.

    How much time is enough time? In Des' first stint, the team finished in 13th, 8th, 5th, 2nd (Runners-up)... then won two premierships in the next 4 years. Since then, we had Toovey and Des v2... both missed the finals in their 4th year as coach and were shown the door. Was that enough time or...

    Captain 2026

    It depends how many minutes he plays per game next year... Usually you want your captain to always be on the field.

    Captain 2026

    There are exceptions but teams usually always have their captain on the field... so it depends if Jake continues to play 80 minutes a match.

    All NRL Games [Round 17, 2025]

    Not sure if it was mentioned but Luke Metcalf has likely torn his ACL, so the Warriors' spot in the Top 4 doesn't look nearly as comfortable now. If the Panthers finish in the Top 4 they will be very good odds to win 5 in a row... and I think I would be sick.

    Tallyn Da Silva

    Harry Grant is reportedly on nearly $1 million a year, and the Storm haven't won a premiership with him (yet). We had Api for 4 years, and in that time, we reached Week 2 of the finals once. He's separately been in 4 Grand Finals, won 3 of them, and also won two wooden spoons. Until we get...

    Funnily enough, they are below us on the ladder right now.

    Anyone else over Voss?

    In my opinion, he is a fundamentally good commentator, in that he calls the play well and he pronounces the player's names correctly. The frustrating part is that he makes a deliberate choice to indulge in a lot of hyperbole and supposition. It is unnecessary and entirely avoidable. Just call...
