    Tommy T Injured - usa bound

    He got absolutely no quality ball. Tedesco the glory seeker, all he did was cut back inside and get shut down. He had a number of opportunities to put Tom one on one with his opposite and ball hogged instead. Without seeing the ratings, Teddy the pet will probably get an 8/10 because he “looked...

    Weekes - need's Blacktown ASAP

    Yeah, I can see the other clubs smashing down our door to sign him after today.

    Kelma Tuilagi

    Agree with all of this. The charge down showed some commitment from a bloke getting flogged in the last game of the year.

    Kelma Tuilagi

    I agree. But I actually think he has that. He runs the tough line, but has been mostly used as a decoy, criminally underused overall. If he armed grabbed a couple of times today, I can forgive that. Why should he put his body on the line when no one else is? He was one of 4 players busted by...

    Kelma Tuilagi

    Sorry for the repeat posts, but I’m watching a recording of the game as I have been typing. Since my first comment he’s done a few hit ups with at least one tackle bust, an offload, a charge down and a few tackles. I’m reserving judgement.

    Kelma Tuilagi

    I agree with your first comment. I don’t think anyone thinks he’s Ben Kennedy though.

    Kelma Tuilagi

    I’ve kept my eye on him whenever I watched a tigers game, and he has ability. Not bad when attacking high kicks (dragged a short dropout back today) and also scored a couple from kicks during the year. He can bust a tackle and has an offload. Sure, he hasn’t shown star qualities but seriously...

    Manly in Crisis (a mega thread)

    I couldn’t be bothered scrolling through all of this thread because it’s tiresome to me. I’ve been following Manly since Bob Fulton became my favourite player as a kid. So since the early 70s. And I’ve seen all of this before. 1979, the year after our magnificent gf win in 78, we missed the...

    Poll added - Sea Eagles Everyone in League jersey

    If they requested a release, then I can’t see them getting another gig in the NRL. Any club who signed them would be seen to be supporting their stance. To be honest I don’t think the NRL would ratify a new contract with another club as it would also be seen to be supporting them. I think it...

    Poll added - Sea Eagles Everyone in League jersey

    I wasn’t going to get involved in this as it is so highly emotional. But here goes. Firstly, I’m fine with the jersey. As a matter of fact when I first saw it I thought it was a good initiative. But this post is not about the process and the outcome. It’s about those who are sitting out. The...

    Pre-Game Storm v Manly [Round 12, 2022]

    For the punters, Manly currently paying $5.50. That’s a great price.

    Smartest thing that club ever did.

    I’m a big fan of DCE and I think he has been worth the money. He helped steer us in 2011 and was MOM in 2013. He is not the type of halfback to steer a team around the paddock. He is an off the cuff player, with a magnificent kicking game. The best in the comp, as evidenced yesterday. That’s why...

    The Manly forward pack are Soft

    Firstly, the Panthers’ line speed is incredible. Just ridiculous. So to combat that you need your dummy half to be putting your forwards on the front foot. I like Croker, but he isn’t doing that. He rarely runs, and doesn’t engage the markers, so they are free to head straight for the player...

    Forwards

    It’s been touched on here, but what I think we do miss is the fear element. By that I mean we lack the player that in Peter Sterling’s words “you like to know where they are” when running the ball. The one who might make a runner or ball player change their mind and give up an error, the one who...

    Vlandy’s

    I get the crackdown. They are essentially changing the way the game is played, and will be played in the future. They have to. In my opinion, and I’m serious here, the game won’t exist in 10 years if getting concussed is considered “part of the game”. The world is changing, like it or not. A...

    Special mention to Harper

    The rule they use for a tackle is “the ball or the arm holding the ball touches the ground”. That’s exactly what happened. He stood up to play it and they dragged him over. If he stood up and planted the ball over the tryline, it would have been called a double movement, I have no doubt. Just...

    NRL is a disgrace.

    If it’s the moment I’m thinking of, then I’m with you 100 per cent. He should have hunted in field looking for Turbo or DCE but instead went for the hero play.

    Best interview Ever "Snake Stewart"

    This really rankles me and I’ve argued it before, but Snake was an all-round better footballer than Slater. He had more skills and it was only injury that stopped him being spoken of like Slater is. There’s no doubt that at the end of 2008 he was the number one fb in the game, but unfortunately...

    Surrounded by BS on here.

    Am I the only one that remembers some of the beatings we got back in 2004/5? I remember we had 60 or so points put on us at Penrith one night. Point I am making is that we have been here before. With the same criticism of the coach, roster and owners. And then look what happened. Am I...
