    Pre-Game Manly V Eels [Round 8, 2024]

    We don't want to thrash then by to many, id hate to see Brad Arthur lose his job at the squeels. He's the gift that keeps on giving, 11 years under his tutelage and nothing, nada, zip, diddly squat.

    Pre-Game Manly V Eels [Round 8, 2024]

    When Jason first came to Manly I thought, here's a bloke who can run like the wind but he's probably going to be a liability in defence. Fast forward a few seasons, and whilst he's had some defensive issues I've warmed to having him at the club. He always plays with enthusiasm and he genuinely...

    Pre-Game Manly V Eels [Round 8, 2024]

    I was reading that Gutherson has been getting his knee drained after every game. As others have said there's a good chance he won't pull the boots on. Manly by 12+

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I wonder if we pay him $200,000 for 3 years if he signs with another club.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    By the time we upgrade Lodge and Brown there won't be much of Schuster's money left..although I just remembered Lawton is going. Maybe $400,000 all up for a good rookie with potential.

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

    For the past few years, we could all see we lacked grunt up front. The problem was identified and the addition of Brown and Lodge was just what the doctor ordered. Yes, we still have the right-side defensive issue to sort out but DCE said they know the problem exists. It's become a target for...

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

    Glad that one is done and dusted, I was always more worried about this game than I am about the eels at home next week.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I'm trying not to let my bias towards Manly make me take sides but I do think Mestrov is thinking sensibly when it comes to Josh. If they can't reach an amicable agreement i think it could make other clubs even more wary than they are now. If they do reach a monartary agreement on the basis...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    A few people on here have compared Josh to Olsen Filipaina and as an older rugby league fan I reckon that's pretty close to the mark. I remember Filipaina having unbelievable ballplaying skills and he could turn a game in an instant. But I also remember him bouncing between firsts and reserves...

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    I'm a believer because I think the team now looks like they're playing for each other and not just with each other, and you need that bond to go to the next level when things get tough. Also, apart from the Schu dilemma I'm reasonably happy with recruitment, Brooks is fitting in and Browns...

    2025 recruitment & retention

    I get a bit peeved when I hear players telling coaches where they want to play and I actually applauded Shane Flanagan for his actions when Lomax tried to start calling the shots. Same thing with Reuben (who i really like) I don't think any player should be bigger than the club or the team.

    2025 recruitment & retention

    I have absolutely no idea who's worth what but I'm guessing both Brown and Lodge aren't on big money and they made need upgrades in 25 if they continue to produce this year. Hopefully, we still have enough to entice an up and comer with plenty of upside. Again, it's early days but it's nice to...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    He'd have to have performance clauses built into his current contract because I remember Cherry and Seibs making vague insinuations that Josh needed to train harder last year. Also, Mestrov seems like a pretty smart operator to me and the warning signs were already there, I mean even us...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Maybe I'm reading to much into it, but it's quite telling that the Dragons haven't made a play for Josh, I mean they have plenty of cap space coming up with the departure of Lomax plus Flanagan would have seen plenty of Josh last year. I hope the club does have a clause in his contract because...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I'm surprised the Telegraph didn't lead with "Schu gets the boot for being a loafer" On a serious note, it's hard to be too critical, he never brought the club into disrepute for being a dickhead and he was never a cheapshot merchant. I think he's just a young bloke who lost his way and maybe...
