Players Playing to Their Strengths
Situation with Garrick in the centres is still going to be on the problematic side and if the side can do any better with someone else there . At this stage , only Turbo at centre with Koula and Lehi at the back , maybe could offer a bit more but according to initial indications , will not be...- manly al

Siosiua Taukeiaho
Ideal if it could be a bit different and probably has already been referred to but Jake on 950K , Haumole on about 850 K or even slightly more , Tent on probably around the 600 K mark , Alioia no doubt still on good coin , doesn "t leave a lot of cap room elsewhere in the forward line up...- manly al

Siosiua Taukeiaho
Playing only limited footy the past couple of seasons could have two factors associated with this. His body is just not holding up too well and a bit prone to injury or the extended time off the field has allowed for a bit of general healing and sure that he would still have some good footy...- manly al

If we are to go all the way in 2025 who is in our 17?
Did try and refer any Burbo to centre situation as strictly cover and in case a starting centre may unfortunately go down . Really no different to the previous roles of guys like Jetski, Tom Symonds , Beaver and so on . Could be a difference next season if maybe T T 2 or Lehi are on the bench...- manly al

If we are to go all the way in 2025 who is in our 17?
Jake , inadvertently or otherwise , had a pretty torrid 2024 on the field and understandable that he may have appeared just a little jaded towards season 's end . Still did not diminish his overall and important value to the side and really can not see that changing in 25 if he can be used in a...- manly al

Ezra Mam
Noted last week that one of the new Q L D government 's more senior polies was considering lodging an appeal against the sentence but looks like that has gone or maybe has gone nowhere . Extent of the fine looks almost farcical let alone some of the other penalties to date imposed , so not...- manly al

Yeah , i think that Burbo can more then hold his own this season and hopefully can even be a bit more influential overall on an edge . Can 't underestimate his ability to cover centre if the need arises in games but ideally on the lower scale- manly al

Looks like an interesting situation with both Patolo and Taukeiaho possibly coming into calculations in a game day 17 but looks like or understandably , coaching staff will just wait how things may progress and pan out , especially in the trials with injury and fitness issues . But , just like...- manly al

One has to go ... who ?
Didn 't realize Lehi was quite tall but don't think that he needs that much more weight to add to his frame as he definitely or already has some good natural strength and drive Interesting that both his and Turbo's current contracts are up in 2026 so just like in D C E 's present contract...- manly al

Confirmed: PNG Team Coming 2028
interesting concept but can not really seeing it happening . A F L has 18 sides now and another from Tassie maybe happening in future times but don't think that i have ever noticed a conference type proposal there and sure that just like in the N R L , there will be a range of reasons ...- manly al

The Silvertail's optimism pulse 2025.
Knock out final against the Roosters and late season loss against the Sharks probably indicated the present shortcomings to go to the next level and it manly revolves around defence and a bit more authority in the middle . Plenty of instability in the background organization wise during that...- manly al

Lodge, you Monster
Wonder what sort of money is being offered to players mainly designated for the Manly N S W cup side . Only [ or is it slightly more or can be more then 30 ] for the main N R L squad , development players to take into account also.. Train and trial guys Lodge maybe for a N S W cup level...- manly al

One has to go ... who ?
Still seems only two likely scenarios for outside back positions for 25 . Turbo at one , Lehi or Talau on one wing , Saab on the other . ,Garrick and Koula in the centres Or Lehi eventually to the back , Turbo to centre , Garrick to wing . Taking into account , Lehi an automatic or expected...- manly al

One has to go ... who ?
Don't think that will happen in the backline in the short term but could well be the case not too far down the track. Lehi goes better or can offer more at full back than wing, Turbo, no problems at centre but again would expect him to be 1st choice full back in the short term. Question would be...- manly al

One has to go ... who ?
Could be interesting after Nov i st next year when both Rueben and Lehi on their current contract arrangements will be able to field offers from other clubs . Not sure if there are any goal kickers presently on the books to equal or surpass Rueben 's strike rate so that could be a factor in...- manly al

One has to go ... who ?
Didn 't think Koula was on that amount , thought that it was more in the Garrick range but guess not that big a difference in the general sense . Also when manager's fees and whatever taxation arrangements are taken into account . Actually not bad value for Rueben when his goal kicking , speed...- manly al
