    Post-Game Discussion Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    We looked better with Simpkins at #9 and Tevaga at lock. Tevaga and Jake should share the #13 role. Forwards had a dig tonight too. Please get rid of this stupid sin bin rule.

    Worst selection error in Manly history.

    And he continues to pick Ben T. He's just been mostly awful. Arthur, Chee Kam, Patolo and Navale all need to get a shot. Continuing to pick the same team is just ridiculous.

    I've said for 10 years I actually reckon hooker is his best position. A bit like Ben Hunt. They want to be halves but are better suited to #9.

    Jake T.

    Jake is so far out of form, I think Nevale would offer more to our team and hes on 1/5 of the money.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    With some smart signings in 2026, we can be ready to make a run at top 4 again. Although, I really see 2027 as our best opportunity to get the squad we want/need. Losing all those players next year wouldn't really cost us much at all. They would all be replaced and can't be any worse than what...

    DCE parents supposedly seen at the Gold Coast getting wined and dined last week. Could end up being nothing, but Titans look like they are at least interested.

    Sack Spoony Siebold

    Is it the coach or is it our spine? Tevaga and Simpkins would be at the lowest level of hookers in the 17 teams. Hoppa is a young gun and very safe but is really unable to create like the better fullbacks in the comp. DCE has always been a flat track bully. Brooks was side today but again isn't...

    [Resurrected] what the f**k is wrong with our club

    It's been downhill since we tried to copy and paste the Storm mould of the "big 3" we had Jake, Turbo and DCE on massive money and they just never really got close to the heights of a big 3. When we had that much salary cap in 3 players, we just can't compete, especially when 1 is never on the...

    Game Day: Sharks V Manly [Round 6, 2025]

    34 tackles in the opposition 20m. We scored 1 try from an intercepted another from a scrappy last tackle play which was a bit of a fluke. Our spine just does not create enough. A quality #9 is still a massive issue for us and has been since Fainu.

    Game Day: Sharks V Manly [Round 6, 2025]

    This is the exact type of game DCE does NOT deliver. He's a high flyer when we are on the front foot. He's been shown up by Trindall toady

    Jamal Fogarty

    1.2 mil for 2 years is a great buy in my opinion. I like Arthur but considering he is a big body, I'd have him in my 17 instead of Waddell. He can easily cover backrow, lock and halves. At his age Fogarty is in his prime and is a genuine half-back. I feel we will have a very similar squad in...

    Look at the Dogs. On paper its probably the worst spine in the comp. The coaching plays a massive part.

    Test affiliation Pasifika

    Woodsie good to see your posts again after all these years. I used to be with you on this but something Corey Parker said has changed my mind. There were 13 "Pasifika" players that played in last years origin that have already played for a tier 2 nation, so it's already happening. If we open it...
