    That Elusive FG

    Cant help but feel how important that field goal would have been in context of the season. Would have given us 3 wins on the trot against more fancied teams, kept us in the hunt for the 8, yet we lose the unlosable and back it up on Thursday night like a team defeated before kickoff.. That's...

    We are AWFUL

    Don't cry, not a massive surprise considering where we are at..

    Manly vs Cowboys [Round 13, 2018] - Pre game Discussion Thread

    Yeah, but.. on a typical slow track at night at Brookie and with 3 of our best attackers out is a whole new ball game.

    Manly vs Cowboys [Round 13, 2018] - Pre game Discussion Thread

    Even though they have more players on Origin duty those players haven't exactly been setting the world on fire. Jake and Tom are more important to us then the ones they have out.

    Manly vs Cowboys [Round 13, 2018] - Pre game Discussion Thread

    i don't think this game is going to be decided by a standout performance or spectacular play, I expect a scrappy affair, and the team that is more 'up' for it will get the cookies..

    Manly vs Cowboys [Round 13, 2018] - Pre game Discussion Thread

    If Taupau can match or get the better of Taumololo in the forwards, we should have them covered in all other areas. Api coming back in is a huge plus, not such a bad thing having the week off with all the work he does up the middle. Their backline is one of the worst and slowest in the comp - no...

    Storm Vs Manly [Round 11, 2018] Team lists & Pre-Game Discussion

    Danger men for them no doubt are Munster and their back 3. Contain them and we go a long way towards winning..

    Hodkinson returns to Manly

    Personally I think Suli is suited better to wing then Kelly. He is taller and likely better under the high ball, and he has a stronger carry coming back from our own end. That's what you want in a modern winger. Just needs to trim down a tad..

    Hodkinson returns to Manly

    Yeah cant recall the exact circumstances but assume he was allowed to go due to the fact we had DCE and Foz coming through - cant keep them all. Could be wrong though..

    The Life Of Brian (Kelly)

    Also this argument about speed, Esan Marsters at the tigers is probably the form centre in the NRL and hes probably one of the slowest. He's just got great footwork and ball skills and the ability to make things happen around him.

    Hodkinson returns to Manly

    Probably already been mentioned but how ironic is it Hodko is coming back presumably to partner DCE when all those years back he was moved on to make way for DCE. I think its a good move considering he would be on peanuts.. Also will be interesting to see if he assumes the goalkicking, I have a...

    The Life Of Brian (Kelly)

    Enjoying reading this thread and peoples opinions on players. Im also on the Kelly bandwagon, and atm if it came down to squeezing players in to a tight salary cap id have him over Walker. As Bearfax says he seems to have that ability to make time stand still - a lot of the indigenous boys...

    Origin

    Jake yes, Tom unlikely unless he really steps up next few weeks. Hookers will be McInness and Cook.

    Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 9, 2018]

    We played ok today, but the reality is the roosters despite being strong on paper have been ordinary all year and were there for the taking again today.. A better team would have put them away.. Anyhow reasonably pleased with the effort.

    [Resurrected] Please, please Trent... Pick Tom Wright

    100% correct - pretty sure not every player to play NRL has got them from dominating in the lower grades. Its about having the talent and showing glimpses of it. Some players actually rise a level or two when they are thrown in the cauldron..

    [Resurrected] Please, please Trent... Pick Tom Wright

    They keep picking him at centre so cant see him getting a call up at 6 in first grade. Apparently Joey Lussick has been solid in recent weeks so another good game from him might get him the call up..

    DCE eye gouge ?

    That's just how i see it panning out - time will tell. If he does get charged - would be interesting to see if JB comes out in his defence and says there was nothing in it, after all apparently they are best mates..

    DCE eye gouge ?

    Maybe he will get one week tops.. not a bad thing in the current climate. Hopefully this means blooding a rookie (nothing to lose now), but wouldn't surprise if halves pairing is something Hastings/Koroisau. Should make for an interesting game today for Blacktown. Hopefully Tom Wright can have...

    D walks??

    If he doesn't show some glimpses of form in the coming weeks id be open to letting him go - considering what he's on. Should be in the prime of his career - we cant afford to carry players on potential, need to strengthen other areas.
