    Terry Hill RIP

    I remember that try with much joy. Great effort.

    Terry Hill RIP

    Truly sad. So enjoyed his efforts for Manly and combination with Craig Innes at centre. Also enjoyed his crazy TV appearances. A real rough diamond that one.

    [Resurrected] Lol @ Parra

    Manly need to be careful with this one coming up. The Eels have copped flack from their coach, the media, no doubt their fans. They cant afford to drop the ball on this one. I suspect it will be close.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Agreed, though managers are there to promote their product and make money. Schuster is a product he's seeking to sell, and he's not going to promote deficiencies if he wants the best deal. Though its frustrating, we are not all clones from the same manufacturing plant. Just as we have...

    Space!

    Ah, another of the Plutophiles. True believers. Yes I was upset when the dog planet was downgraded to a dwarf planet with the rest of the riff raff. Bastards I said. No respect. But then some dude discovered these other dwarf planets and found one further out called Eris. WTF. This bloody world...

    Post-Game Discussion Post-Game Discussion - Titans V Manly [Round 7, 2024]

    After seven rounds my assessment of this teams attack and Defense Attack: 9 Defense: 4 Overall performance: 7 Manly has the attack to compete with the best. Their defense though is leaking badly.

    Space!

    Old news but could be something eventually found. The reasons relate to the behaviour of Kuiper Zone dwarf planets Sedna, Makemake, Eris, Haumea and Quaroar, the latter having a ring and moon called Weywot. They are the biggest so far found, Eris being only slightly smaller than Pluto. All have...

    Manase Fainu - Discussion

    I see it somewhat differently. I felt the pathways structure was fine. A lot of talented kids were coming through, and the benefit of them growing up together meant they knew each others game and the Manly style. However, I felt the next step was flawed. The old reserves, under 23s allowed...

    Manase Fainu - Discussion

    I try my best, though I should have told Gutherson to pull his socks up yesterday. However your other comments are quite valid in my opinion. Manly was a mess after 2015. Finally seeing a little hope at present....a light at the end of the tunnel. Hope its not just some firefly losing its way

    2025 recruitment & retention

    Storm, Roosters, Cowboys? Teams recruit young players for their juniors or before they've played more than a hand fall of first grade, often from elsewhere and develop them. As a result they know the clubs style, they tend to remain more loyal given the comradery they develop with other juniors...

    Manase Fainu - Discussion

    Another example of Manly in the past putting all their eggs in one basket. Yes and that included Schuster, when you have Latu Fainu on your books, letting Gutherson go because you have Turbo on your books. In this case putting all their stocks on a fairly high risk gamble with Manese (given he...

    2025 recruitment & retention

    Seems to me most successful clubs have a foundation of players from their junior ranks in the premier side, with just a sprinkling of imports. One reason is they know each other's game when they've been playing together for a few years in the junior ranks.

    Lost opportunity through a moment of madness. What a waste.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Sad situation. I always maintained he needed time to resolve his issues. Regrettably too much time has expired and I don't blame Manly for their decision, though I've felt in the past decade there's been a tendency by the Club to show lack of patience and to seek quick fix solutions. I feel...

    Lodge, you Monster

    Always good to have someone with grunt in your side. Now we have two, Lodge and Brown. One element we missed badly for several years. Tough no nonsense types. Not the sort you invite to a garden party for tea and crumpet.

    Pre-Game Titans V Manly [Round 7, 2024]

    Agreed. That's why I suggested the coach is probably holding him back because he's adapting to a totally different role. Its a position we have not seen him play and I suspect for him it takes a lot of adjustment in positioning, involvement etc. He's only had a few games in the back row. Needs a...

    Pre-Game Titans V Manly [Round 7, 2024]

    Would be interesting having Parker on the backrow bench. He's only had a hand full of games in the position and perhaps that's why he's being held back. But I think he needs to be considered in the not too distant future. Tall, strong, good defender and for a backrower has a bit of pace. I would...

    Croker Creativity

    Always dangerous to be definitive. There are no absolutes only perceived better probabilities. We can't know something effectively until we experience it. Croker may not be suited to lock, but his characteristics suggest he may have what is needed to fulfil that task. Might fall on its face but...
