    State of Origin Team Predictions

    I may have missed it but I am surprised Brooks name has not even been mentioned in the media. I have only heard Moses, Luia, Walker (with comments he is unlikely due to form), Burton and Hynes. I am not saying he should be the 5/8 but I think his form deserves some discussion.

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

    Watching the replay and the highlights what stood out was Garrick's defence. 3 tries scored from either poor reads or soft first contact. Not sure what is going on there however fix that and the scoreline would have been a lot more comfortable. Also as some have said turbo doesn't jump for...

    2025 recruitment & retention

    Like this but wouldn't come cheap. At least $500-$600k per season. Not sure we can afford it.

    Jake Toby, what a shame

    Agree with this. Saw him in a couple of Manly pre-season games and certainly a livewire in attack. Absolutely exposed under the high ball and NSW cup is his limit in my opinion. Has been around now for 3/4 years and hasn't cracked it yet. No way he makes the Storm team and wouldn't/shouldn't...

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

    I would swap Talau for Paulo and I think Lodge will start and Brown on the bench. BUT we know Woods will be in instead of GCKT.

    Lehi Hopoate

    Think he becomes a very viable option later in the season, probably on the wing. Definitely see him in FG next year in some capacity and will provide good depth at FB, Wing and Centre.

    Is Mestrov really our Messiah?

    How do you do that blocking thing again?

    Coaches

    Jury still out for me. I think there have been some great changes over the past 12-18 months but not sure if that is Mestrov or the coaches. And then there are games like the Dragons which do my head in e.g. "we didn't turn up". Well, that's the coach's job to ensure mentally we are up. Our...

    The fairytale is over

    After the 'Manly Way' video's and the whole Las Vegas extravagander I was optimistic of a Top 8 finish. Up 14-0 versus the Eels I was even thinking "gee we have got a very good team this year". Then the second half capitulation against the Eels, followed by a whole lot of excuses. The...

    Woodsie's Team List Tuesdays

    Going to be very hard to beat the Panthers. Even without Cleary and Fischer-Harris the Panthers do everything quicker than Manly. I just think they will spread the ball wide at every opportunity and expose our fragile defence out wide. God help us if they end up with repeat sets on our goal...

    Pre-Game Dragons v Manly [Round 4, 2024]

    Agree with this. I know we won there last year but we always seem to struggle in Wollongong. And as fired up as we may be, so will they. Flanno would love to put one over us.

    Garricks performance at centre

    Agree young Hoppa looks special however body is still very slight. Give him a few more months (or next year) and watch out. Plus I don't think he is eligible to play until rnd 11 anyway.

    Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    This. The top teams overcome these obstacles. We need to defend better on the edges AND stop the winger rushing in. Little plays like stopping the Parra try off the kick - we had enough players around the ball. The try where Turbo came across and hit the ball carrier short of the line. The...

    Is Jaxson Paulo a starter

    Jury out on Paulo however the issue of wingers flying in off their wing is not new. Tuipolotu did it regularly for the last 2 years. Either it is the coaching or an individual choice. Either way I never really saw Tui sanctioned for it.

    Leaking points in the 20m

    Agre - been an issue re leaking points in our 20m for the past 18 months. IF we can tighten this up then it will improve our chances this season. I must admit when watching games and a team enters our 20 I feel like they can/will score at anytime.
