    Things i dont want to hear in 2022.

    At post-game press conferences especially, the mundane and uncreative questions from 'supposed' NRL journos.....ok 'opinion piece' writers "So Des, didn't go your way tonight?" - No d#$khead, we lost "So tell us, what impact does Turbo has on the team?" - Maybe a positive one, seeing he setup 4...

    New Winger - Christian Tuipulotu

    His trial game last year was unflattering to say the least. Was outside Suli though, who was all at sea and seemed illiterate in defensive reads. Bit harsh to compare him to a hatrick-scoring debutant. I'm sure T7u's finishing is equally impressive. That is not what his mentioned weakness is...

    Friday's Trail

    Missed the trial game, we actually won for once. Highlights show more in 2nd half - did Tigers replace most of their squad with young'uns? Some nice backline plays from high-numbered players. Never read too much into Trials, but as long as we didn't have any major injuries, and as long as the...

    Tom T is "not" the Best FB

    Tom has much bigger upside than Tedesco. Teddy is a determined guy, but determination can only take you so far when you have someone with the physique and brain combo Turbo has as an alternative. Teddy was once injury-prone if anyone cares to remember. He overcame it. Teddy is a great...

    Friday's Trail

    Much more interested in getting through all trials with no injuries, and then putting in a good showing, Win/Loss/Draw. Also, regardless of win I would much rather we get some youngsters who put in a blinder and stick up their hand for consideration. Put the incumbents on notice, no complacency...

    Tolu Koula

    Will Koula come on at Centre or FB I wonder? Could be our potential Suli replacement right there if we still sticking with Garrick as cover for Turbs, and might even leapfrog Tuipulotu (btw gonna call him T7u from here as its easier to write - represents T-7letters-u) Looking forward to...

    what 5 Manly players under pressure to perform 2022

    Under pressure list - no particular order to this: 1) Lachlan Croker This guy is just under pressure not to get injured or regress to his early-2021 form. We have Lawton as a backup 9 I guess, but that wasn't how Des used Karl last year. With our lean stocks in the number 9 stocks, we have no...

    How the Rorters always get their man.

    Guys like Politis treat the NRL as a business, and are far better at business than the NRL administration. He brings in likeminded, business-savvy stakeholders who in turn bring new ideas to the table at a club-level that the NRL administration can re-appropriate league-wide. He knows how to...

    Cliffy Lyons - An Immortal ?

    Yes. Cliffy has my vote.

    The block of cheese!!

    Kinda on the fence about the Cheese - I mean I like that he's cheesy...i mean cheeky, and no question he is a hell of a player, but there is this party-element he has which can combine with his profile to turn him into a potential dickhead. Peer-pressure to like... come out and hit the (nose)...

    The block of cheese!!

    Hmm I think Sam Verrills might be found in a toilet cubicle with a bag of questionable substances, so the Roosters can ship him on sans payout with no salary cap implications - so they can sign the Cheese who was recorded in a hotel room with a bag of questionable substances. Maybe Sammy can...

    Hoops are back for 2022 !

    Nice Jersey design, but having pointsbet scrawled along the front is akin to vandalism. Wish URM would return to the front of the jersey and do what they do best. Take out the trash.

    Tech billionaire Mike Cannon-Brookes buys stake in South Sydney Rabbitohs

    Becoming quite the celebrity club now. Can only help grow the game into the US further, to a different crowd than Rusty offers. Guess its good that its only a 25% share - however having total celebrity club ownership will lead us down the path of the EPL eventually with all their rich-as-fk...

    Latu Fainu

    This is great news! Love seeing players we develop so keen to stay at Manly and chase success. Manly's future looks great - we're fast becoming one of those clubs that other players will take unders for, just to be a part of a successful and attractive club - positive reputations (with Manly's...

    Game Day: Souths v Manly [Finals Week 3, 2021]

    Good luck Manly! No, actually.... Go good Manly and you will win! Better team, and team of the future vs a team at the end of their premiership window. Mix-a- Manly-matosis on the way people!

    1 game in 4 weeks

    Bunnies will come out a lot harder than the Rooters did and not drop away as fast as they will be fresh and focused. We need to keep our completions up early, and fight for field position through solid line-benders from our big boppers, fast play-the-balls, and strong kick-to-corner kicks on...

    Pre-Game Souths v Manly [Finals Week 3, 2021]

    The odds on the NRL site haven't - Manly started 1.77 | 2.00 - moved out to 2.05, then 2.10. Now Manly 2.15. Souths have shortened to 1.74 in that same time, having moved to 1.70 in that time at one stage (I think..) I abhor gambling on sports so don't have a good understanding of what that...

    The nutty professor

    I just like how Des looks like he has just got out of the surf at North Narra and mussed up his hair with his towel to dry it off, leaving it all salty and tangled. His breathlessness in the press conference is because the surf was epic, and he was committed. He doesn't treat media gronks that...
