    Turbo tied up long term

    Appreciate the detail mate, that really puts the contract situation in perspective. From my point of view, I honestly don’t see how Jake should be going past 2026, let alone 2027 — I’ve said before that his output has already dropped off significantly, and then when you add the concussion risk...

    Turbo tied up long term

    Hey mate @AndWeDon'tCare, just wondering if you’ve heard anything on Jake’s contract status? The Chammas article today said he’s been thinking about retirement post his “current deal that ends in 2027” – but his contract only runs until the end of 2026. From what I understand, Manly have...

    MWSE Squad Contract Status & Top 30 List

    Add Blake Wilson to that list. That makes it 29.

    Jamal Fogarty

    You make some fair points, but I think you’re still overplaying it massively. Every halfback can have games where they go quiet or get exposed defensively, especially against the top sides. The difference is DCE has had far more of those games than Fogarty over the years. Singling out Fogarty...

    Jamal Fogarty

    I’ll take what you say with a grain of salt, as I’ve noticed over the years you’re a pretty avid pro-DCE fan on here. But I still want to put these stats out there for everyone else to see, because they clearly dispel the idea that DCE is “so far ahead it’s not funny.” Fogarty is the halfback...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Another player I’d be looking at for next year is Ativalu Lisati from Melbourne. He’s a 24-year-old second rower — tough, hard working, very mobile. Not sure how many of you watched last night’s game, but I saw a couple really nice things from him that I liked. He scored a really solid...

    2026 ( the Nostradamus thread )

    Willett, Zaidas, Laiafi all confirmed to be top 30 next year, but I’m unsure about Large. Others on ST have mentioned he’s signed on a top 30 until end of 2028 but don’t know how accurate that is. Paul Bryan is another one I’m not 100% on but my understanding is that he’s a direct swap for...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Yes good pick up. Forgot about him. I believe it was announced as being a reserve grade or train and trial type contract, similar to what Lodge is on at the moment. So minimum wage I’m assuming.

    [Resurrected] Zach Dockar-Clay

    Played 16 games for first grade for the Roosters first grade side this year… he’s also played 130 games of reserve grade across his career, so definitely NSW Cup standard at the very least. No where near Ron Massey level. He’s an upgrade on GCKT that’s for sure. Much more versatile too, with the...

    Hugo Hart 2025 tries

    Yeah good pick up. My main point is that the best clubs always have a steady stock of players in every position coming through year after year. Manly, on the other hand, have only just started to sign a handful of young guns over the past year, and we’ve had nothing announced so far this year...

    Hugo Hart 2025 tries

    Unsure what your point is here. Munn is a prop and Dowell is a halfback, so they’re completely different positions. On top of that, Munn also played across three grades in one season and managed to win Best and Fairest in two of them. That’s exactly the kind of junior you should be rewarding...

    Callum Dowell has just won the Jersey Flegg Players’ Player award and Campbell Munn picked up the Best and Fairest. That makes it two years in a row where both of Flegg’s top award winners are leaving the club — last year it was Lenaz and O’Donnell, now this year it’s Dowell and Munn. There is...

    Current SG Ball captain and prop Campbell Munn has signed a two-year deal with Canberra starting next year. Real shame, as he’s risen quickly through the grades — captaining Harold Matts in 2023, winning the SG Ball Players’ Player award earlier this year, then going on to play Jersey Flegg and...
