    Game Day: Manly V Eels [Round 4, 2025]

    There are two things that worry me about Hopoate as a winger. 1 - he's not exactly the fastest runner. Even Turbo ran away from him in the Pacific Champs last year. 2 - his lack of size. I think he needs to bulk up a bit because he does get manhandled. Otherwise his defence is generally good...

    Game Day: Manly V Eels [Round 4, 2025]

    Is it me or are we finally trying to actually make use of Saab's speed this year?? We seem to be going right more and more so far in 2025.

    Those legs are just too skinny to grab. Only the ankle tap works.

    It might be a full house at Brookie today ... but guaranteed there is nowhere near 27,655 people in the ground today. Edit: its the Brookvale ground record vs the Worms from 1986

    Turbo didn't play last week because of tight hamstrings..... Shows up this week wearing a knee brace :lipssealed:

    He was in fact the only Manly player not to miss a tackle all game. 20 tackles, 0 misses, 0 ineffective. His 158 running metres was also the 2nd best for Manly behind only Haumole.

    I bet Stuart won't complain about not getting called for offside before that 40/20.....

    Hammer hasn't even looked like scoring this season so far. The Dolphins are struggling to get him involved.

    I reckon Dom Young has definitely slowed in the past couple of years since joining the Chooks. 3 years ago when the Knights came to Brookie, while unsuccessfully chasing Jason Saab, Young was recorded on the old Telstra Tracker at 38.0 km/h.....exactly the same as the top speed Saab has been...

    For mine that was exactly the same as the one that Saab was given. I'm not saying either one was the correct decision ... I'm just highlighting the lack of consistency from the bunker. And its why I will always maintain that referees themselves should not be in the bunker. That job should be...

    When was the last time they conceded 5 tries in the first half ... and all while scoring a big, fat duck themselves.

    I won't go so far just yet as to say the Penrith bubble might have finally burst. But.....

    I hate Souths with a passion. But right now its not hard to enjoy Penrith being spanked, even by Souths.

    And the actual half we had on the field that night, did nothing at all. He literally just stuck to the left side of the field. Whether he was under instructions or not I do not know. But that night, Brooks had the chance to show his wares and TBH, he didn't.

    Fun Fact: It was actually Tommy Talau who "played" halfback that night against Souths......

    Sorry to go off topic for a moment, but I honestly think we robbed ourselves in that 2013 GF. We led 18-8 with 25 to go, then our defence just fell apart. Regardless of the forward pass at the end of it, we literally let James Maloney stride 30 metres downfield without a hand being laid on him...

    If the club rated Humphreys as a halfback, they wouldn't have been trying to turn him into a hooker / dummy half. Especially, regardless of anything that's going on now, knowing DCE's age and that he wouldn't be forever.
