    Game Day: Warriors v Manly [Round 5, 2021]

    How good is the Captains Challenge? Allows us to challenge the obvious dud decisions. It also makes the refs giving dud decisions think twice as they know they might be challenged and be shown to be wrong. Not sure why the ref said we couldn't challenge the decision about Harper's play the...

    Game Day: Warriors v Manly [Round 5, 2021]

    A typical example of the lack of footy smarts by a lot of our players. Jake knocks on a metre out. Ball rolls towards the dead ball line. Croker runs through. Thought we was trying to stop it going dead and would either force it or pick it up meaning a play the ball a metre out. No he just...

    Big story brewing

    No he was able to retire straight after that job. Uncle Nick looked after him.

    PRE-GAME DISCUSSION: Dragons v Manly [Round 3, 2021]

    Des won't drop Parker. Said how well he played. Think Suli might be the one to go with Walker in the centres and Funa or Harper at the back. How long is Boyle out for?

    Guess the crowd figures

    The DT article said the capacity was less than 6000 with the northern hill out. Not sure if this could be right. Quoted capacity is over 20 000. The north end would have been less than 20% of the total so capacity should still be over 16 000. Covid restrictions are now 100% of seated areas and...

    Other NRL games round 1

    Agree. No need to do a huge leap into the air followed by a forward roll. Gutho knocked him and stopped his somersault leading to him face planting. Just had to slide in. In some cases defenders would be better diving low to where the winger will eventually plant the ball instead of trying to...

    [Resurrected] The end of Scam Smith???

    Rule is that you have to be retired for 5 years before being considered for a nomination. So as Scam didn't retire until 2021 it should put his selection back to 2026.

    Countdown to selectageddon

    Thought Cordner was being rested for 13 weeks so they could buy another top class player.

    Blonks of 2021

    Yes it was Fifita in Bali. But he was with the Broncos then and of course he paid the hush money himself so nothing to see then.

    Fullback Round 1

    What depth for one position. Nine options to cover for Turbo. I am sure that one of them will be able to do the job.

    Smokin' Joe's glorious juniors thread.....2021 edition.

    Good to see the juniors get two wins against the Eels who are always strong in the juniors. The DT did two articles highlighting the best players in the HM and SG Ball. Mentioned 30 players including 4 Eels. No Manly players. Maybe Narrabeen was too far for the journalist to travel to or she...

    Roosters at it again

    My understanding is that they can sign someone for the year. Not sure how it fits with the cap of 30 players. So they can sign a player at the start of March for $350K for the 8 months left. This equates to a $525K player. Cordner can then come back fully rested for the business end of the...

    SILVERTAILS' TEAM ... NOW PICK YOUR #14 ..

    I think that the worst thing can happen is to lose one of your back three early as it usually means moving a centre and using a backrower in the centres, throwing out combinations. I would go for Shearer who can cover 1 - 5. Bozo or Jamie could move into the halves if a half or Krilich was off...

    Hooker for 2021

    I remember when Gift was considered a reserve grader and was only signed so that we could get his younger brother to sign. Spent a couple of years as a reserve before cementing a spot in the top grade. Not saying Croker will turn out the same and think that Cust will get first go but happy to...

    socks down

    Raises the question. Why do they need long socks. Soccer players need them to hiod their shin guards. League players not so necessary.
