    2025 recruitment & retention

    I agree about the Panthers dynasty bozo, but I feel it's FAR more than Seibold that has Manly "A long way off" this lofty standard, as an example, do you feel if Manly had Ivan Cleary as the coach for the past 4 years we would have Won the past 4 Premierships, because I reckon we would have...

    The game has moved on from me and a lot of people from my generation

    I still get pretty pumped, don't get me wrong....its just the game had a more "Natural" vibe to it back then.....but of course Manly Winning is always going to be exciting....

    The game has moved on from me and a lot of people from my generation

    I recall as a kid going to the SCG for a game between Manly vs Easts. There was just a way different atmosphere. As the teams came out to the 'old" team song as in "Up the Mighty Seagles" and the confetti was flying around everywhere.....it didn't seem so much a "product", but a game for tough...

    Onitoni Large

    I get your point too mate and it's got merit, but prefer to stick with the footy talk "not the off field stuff" and my opinion was purely based on Manaise footy talent....if we wanna flip a coin the other way and looking back in time, I'd prefer to say if we had made the decision in hindsight...

    Onitoni Large

    I have no doubt if Manaise "stayed fit" and had been here since that 'incident', Manly would have formed another dynasty and we would be having Epic games with Penrith to decide the NRL comp....I don't base that on JUST Manaise Fainu, though in his own way would be as good as Grant imo, but the...

    No doubt, if Manaise stays and plays, they are ALL at Manly today....

    True that If we had a Time Machine that went back o the 2018 version I'd say "Let's make it happen "

    Onitoni Large

    I think the Fainu situation was more a decision Manly heirarchy wanted "Instant Success" and were VERY open to the move to Tigers. The sitiuation with Onitoni Large was simply a kid with Massive potential falling down the pecking order at Tigers and with Manly looking at life in the halves with...

    Lodge, you Monster

    I was far from impressed with Aloiai in 2024 Hardly made a dent in attack The odd big tackle accompanied by many lazy grabbing efforts Always on he ground as the opposition play the ball Hands not great and offers no offload or quick play the ball I think along with Jake, 2 way overpaid...

    2024 GRAND FINAL

    1 of the biggest chances Melbourne had on Sunday, was for the spine was gunna be off the back of big NAS winning momentum with power charges and quick play balls....but fact is, he done the crime so does the time...Tallis is a hypocrite and though he was a strong player, I don't feel he is an...

    So far off the pace

    Offended and difference of opinion live on Silvertails and that's just how it is, so there's no big issue, it's just a footy site.... I think most would fit into these categories now and then including myself and maybe even you Bob. I did like your middle content on this last post - Keys to...

    2024 GRAND FINAL

    Very true and I didn't realise NAS is up for a 4 week rest....that maybe would open up a can of "Monster" worms if he got off for the GF .... But I'd still take the chance, even though what your saying is 100% correct ...

    2024 GRAND FINAL

    If I'm Storm most definitely challenge it....his power chargers could be a big factor as it allows Grant to run on the back of almost every run, plus creates huge momentum and just his size is of Massive importance against that rugged Penrith pack. Agree 100% "should" be suspended based on...

    I'm gunna get in trouble for this comment, but this is how I see it....as an attacking unit this is the fastest backline in the comp and when given space can score points against ANY team....but i feel the shifts are over used at times where Manly are basically playing sideways and if there was...

    2024 GRAND FINAL

    I 100% prefer Penrith over scum, even though they've won 3 in a row and usually would go the "other" team.....if it wasn't Storm !! Also think penrith will win, but far less confident after seeing the Storm demolition job on Roosters....I expected them to Win well, but Melbourne won so with...

    [Resurrected] Edwin Ipape

    This is EXACTLY the viral internet moment that got Manly interested and there is no doubt he offered an explosive running game....fact is, if his passing, tackling, vision and other attributes were up to this level, every NRL club would have been knocking down his door, but let's be clear, they...
