Seriously we're in trouble when we're calling for Boyle to BE included!
Lol,he has been playing well and defending particularly well which we lack......
It just annoys me that Woods and Lodge are brought in and automatically are selected each week.(along with a couple of others who seem to be autos)
Boyle has been here all year,trained all offseason,injury free and Seibold can't even give him one opportunity all year with some below average performances from some of our middles.
It stinks I tells ya.
I am biased,but I think he is easily in our top 4 props and would pick him every week,just like all posters here I have my favourites ....

Oh, we're Manly, yes we are, and we've come to play,But against the Panthers, we'll just fade away,With Reuben Garrick running, and Jason Saab so fast,You'd think we'd have a chance, but we're destined to come last!

Tolu Koula's in the centre, and Brad Parker's at his side,But face the Panthers' might, and there's nowhere to hide,Raymond Tuaimalo Vaega, he might try his best,But against the Panthers, lad, you're just like the rest.

Oh, the Panthers, oh the Panthers, they're going to beat us flat,Our coach Anthony Seibold's pulling hairs from his hat,Josh Schuster and Cherry-Evans, Daly at the helm,Sorry, boys, the Panthers are in a different realm!

With Toff Sipley charging, and Lachlan Croker hooking,You might think we're looking good, but we're actually just cooking,Sean Keppie and Olakau'atu, they're solid, but they'll fail,Panthers' claws are sharp, and our defence is frail.

The Trbojevic brothers, Jake and Ben, oh, they're a pair,But face the Panthers, lads, and you'll just gasp for air,The bench is looking fine, with Woods, Tuilagi, Dean,But Ethan Bullemor knows, this match is just a dream.

Oh, the Panthers, oh the Panthers, they're going to beat us bad,Our coach Anthony Seibold, he's looking quite mad,Matterson and Tuilagi, Woods and even Dean,Sorry, boys, against the Panthers, we're not the winning team!

So here's to Manly's players, all gallant and all brave,Facing the Panthers' might, it's a beating they'll have to waive,But win or lose, we'll cheer them, 'cause we're loyal to the end,Even when the scoreboard reads a message we can't defend.

Oh, the Panthers, oh the Panthers, they're going to make us weep,Our coach Anthony Seibold, he might not even sleep,Manly's team is trying, but the effort's just in vain,Against the Panthers, boys, there's only defeat to gain!

So raise a glass to Manly, for their courage and their try,But against the Panthers, lads, we're not going to fly,We'll cheer and we'll support them, even in defeat,'Cause being a Manly fan, it's never a retreat!

In a clash of giants on the field so grand,
Where strength and spirit firmly stand,
Manly's warriors rise with might,
A challenge to the Panthers' flight.

DCE, the captain bold and true,
Leads his team with skill and view,
With vision clear, he guides the way,
Through every challenge, come what may.

All hail Keppie, fierce and strong,
A pillar of the team, all season long,
His courage shines, his heart aglow,
In every tackle, he's a force to show.

Saab, the speedster, lightning fast,
A sprinter's pace, a game-changer's blast,
He races down the field, a streak of light,
A flash of hope in Manly's fight.

And Croker, Burbo, Jurbo, and Parks,
A quartet of effort that leaves their marks,
They never stop trying, hearts so bold,
In pursuit of victory, they're a story told.

Against the reigning champions' might,
Manly's spirit takes its flight,
With every pass, with every try,
They aim for stars up in the sky.

In this grand clash, a chance they see,
To topple giants, and set hearts free,
For heroes rise, when times are tough,
And dreams of triumph, they're made of such.

With passion fierce, and strength anew,
Manly's colors stand bold and true,
In every tackle, cheer, and play,
A famous win might come their way.

Cool :thumbsup:

Maybe we'd be having a better season if ChatGPT selected the team each week instead of Seibold :)

(slight correction needed - Burbo instead of Turbo)

I liked Ryan's outside the box style of thinking and support his ideals of moving forward in a more positive way, than the stagnant performances much of 2023.
I like Ryan as well but what is so outside the box picking Harper inside Parker in the centres ?
Harper has been released and Parker should be retired !

I would have quite liked to see Weekes at 14, running hard from DH for about 10 - 15 each half, just to break up the rhythm a bit and maybe not let the Panthers get totally comfortable. Which I say with respect to Matterson, who I like. But I would like to see a bit more variety in our patterns for this game.

Bozo my good man, Your letting a personal resentment of Parker and Harper cloud your vision on Ryan's side.....the other youthful players adding zip around that middle, there's much to like.

Why? Because we should be thinking of next season.

Play Garrick in a spot he's going to.
Play Schuster is a spot he's going to.
Get Jake back to prop.
Get DCE to play with a ball runner (like Brooks)
Get GCKT into the team stat !
Strengthen our bench (drop Woods / Matterson & others)
Play Fainu (mobile, fast, aggressive)

Treat these games as trials now.

Good to see Ben T in 2nd row. Need to get the Schu / Benny show rolling.

Seibold, please get rid of Woods and pick Condon.
