    What will turn Manly from a good side into a great side

    Some on here believe Fifita would improve our side. I', not so sure. I regard him in the same vein as The Shoe, albeit with different attributes. The Shoe was all skill and deception; Fifita all bulk and destruction. But both are inconsistent, brilliant one match not involved the next. We've...

    Annesley's weakly "Why this happened" report - 2024 edition.

    It's been proven that having more officials complicates and delays decisions. Just like in the corporate world companies with one boss are the most decisive and nimble. So when James Graham suggested on NRL360 last night we put 7-8 former players in The Bunker to decide a decision -- majority...

    Dolphins V Manly [Round 10, 2024]

    Form means nothing these days. I think as fans we get a 'gut feel' when we'll put up a strong performance, and a foreboding of doom when the so-called experts all tip us. Such was the case when we played our hoodoo team, Illawarra, and many of us were worried about Canberra, even though we...

    Annesley's weakly "Why this happened" report - 2024 edition.

    I have a different perspective on this. I feel for the defending winger. He was preparing to catch the ball when DWZ came hurtling through the air over the top of him. What was he supposed to do? He was competing for the ball but just hadn't time to jump for it. It seems to me that everything is...

    All NRL Games [Round 9, 2024]

    Being at the ground is even more confusing. These days there is more bell-ringing at RL matches than a prize fight.

    Didn't help the teams they played for this week.

    All NRL Games [Round 9, 2024]

    It's now called Points Bet Stadium. Almost as forgettable as Four Pines Park. We all know the two grounds are Shark Park and Brookie.

    Far too many six-agains this round.

    All NRL Games [Round 9, 2024]

    The ref and The Bunker sure tried hard to keep the Worriers in the match, awarding a series of soft penalties in an effort to even up the contest. The match again showed how close RL is now resembling soccer with players staying down and inviting The Bunker to rule on what they believe are...

    Paul Kent in trouble again

    There was an old journo named Kent whose opinions were twisted and bent. He'd spew froth and bubble that would land him in trouble so to the sin bin he's now been sent.

    Dolphins V Manly [Round 10, 2024]

    Anybody who takes "form" into account when it comes to rugby league is doomed to disappointment. If RL teams were racehorses they would be the subject of a steward's enquiry every few weeks.

    What will turn Manly from a good side into a great side

    The answer to the question is not one player, but one coach. Bellyache!

    Seibs Going Right Off at Presser.

    Two of Canberra's tries came off freak mistakes from Manly. You won't see either circumstances happen again for a long time. But, basically, Manly players switched off mentally when they (and we fans) thought the match was over at 20-nil. It was initial complacency that turned into desperation...

    Tom is a Myth

    Teddy will be fullback, no question. But Edwards could pop up somewhere in the 17. Whether Turbo will be selected at centre will be interesting. There's Best, Crichton, Staggs, even Lomax. If Latrene has a couple of blinders he may be reinstated.

    Thank god for the HIA

    Correct, and none have been given a real chance in the NRL yet.

    An unexplained ano--Manly

    It's weird; an anomaly; and if somebody can give me a rational explanation for it I'd be appreciative: Why does Manly score way more points when running south? Gus touched on it when we played Doesn'tmatta, joking that Brookie Oval must slope south. Yet there is truth in the lopsided scoring...

    One of those days ( nights ).

    Yep. I've seen this type of performance over the past decade to write it off as "a wake-up call". There is something amiss mentally when we lose so many matches to average opponents after holding big leads.

    All NRL Games [Round 9, 2024]

    Agreed. These are two of my top three most disliked teams but I was happy to see the arrogant Brisbane cop a hiding. Easts still has an amazing roster. It sickens me to see the quality they can buy. How in the hell did they lure Young from Newcastle, who would have been prepared to pay anything...

    So very predictable

    There are a host of teams this season that are inconsistent; we are one of them. In fact, I'd say there are only two teams you can count on to perform to a high standard every week: Melbourne and Penrith. Even though Cronulla is currently leading the comp it has yet to play a top side. I'll...
