    Is Brown our new "BK"

    How ridiculous. Browny had an absolute ripper of a season! Who would’ve thought this bloke that a lot of us had such disdain for from Parra would become the cult hero and hard working legend he’s been for us. Slowed down a bit towards the end of the season but the bloke put his body on the...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Hooker is our biggest issue. Not sure if Simpkin is the guy but I’m sure as hell he’s better than Croker

    So far off the pace

    Well we beat all three of the top teams this year but couldn’t do **** when it was away from Brookvale. Lends in to the team’s poor attitude and that if the slightest of things are against them they won’t show up for the occasion. Plenty to learn for next year, whether Seibold is the guy to...

    The scales of Reuben.

    Chopped and changed a few positions this year but Reuben at centre was a constant. And I would argue his defence there was worse tonight than it was in round 1 this year, absolutely zero improvement over the season. Back to the wing next year, and that’s if he’s any better than Lehi, Saab or...

    Tolu try

    Incredible try. He's had a fairly quiet season which some on here have been far too harsh on him for, but that right there is pure speed and talent and the reason why he needs to be in the side every week, no one else is scoring from that position on this team. Easy to forget that he's only just...

    Game Day: Bulldogs V Manly [Finals Week 1, 2024]

    Really important game for a few of our bigger name players today. Obviously it's Brooks' first ever finals game but Tom has only played 4 finals matches before for just one win. Jake only has 2 wins from 6 and DCE only 2 from 8 in over 10 years since the 2013 GF. It's the last bloke there that...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Having watched Tevaga a bit more closely since we've been linked with him my excitement has definitely dipped off a bit. He has some of the worst hands I've ever seen and looks pretty busted after a number of injuries over the years, he's also nearly 30. I'll give him a chance as I thought...

    Turbo good to go

    Penrith flogged Parra in week 1 of the finals and then again in the GF in 2022, and that was after losing to them twice during the regular season. Mind you that team had/has a lot more resilience and mental toughness than ours do. I'm not confident in this one, but only because we're such an up...

    Pre-Game Bulldogs V Manly [Finals Week 1, 2024]

    Tom even at 50% makes our team look much better but I'm really struggling with the makeup of the bench and Croker at 9. Don't know what Simpkin has done to be left out of the 22 entirely again but we've gotten worse since he's been dropped and Croker came back in. Lawton to 9 and Burbo on the...

    Seibs Going Right Off at Presser.

    I cannot understand the Croker to lock talk. It can’t be for his defence because we’ve been leaking more points since he came back in, and our ruck defence has been woeful. He has no running game either so wouldn’t help our go forward which we already struggle with, could you imagine both him...

    Go On Record Manly vs Dogs Week 1 finals score

    Dogs 28-12 Both teams are seemingly cooked at this point but I think they have the edge in leadership and composure with Crichton and Ciraldo… which is pretty ****en sad given how long DCE has been around

    Jake Trbojevic... take a bow

    Won’t be a popular opinion but **** it. Jake is the biggest problem in our team bar Croker and he’s on 500k+ more than him. Offers absolutely zero in attack and is constantly praised for his defence which mainly consists of giving away set restarts and missing crucial tackles due to his lack of...

    Game Day: Manly V Sharks [Round 27, 2024]

    He is awful. Seibold deserves some pressure for caving into team popularity and bringing him back in for Simpkin. Weak decision that very well may cost us a home final and chance to go any further this year

    Game Day: Manly V Sharks [Round 27, 2024]

    We are losing this game because we are being dominated in the ruck and that solely comes down to Croker and Jake IMO. I’ve had a few beers and I reckon I could do a better job out of dummy half than Croker right now , and Jake doesn’t look like he can go a set without giving away a set restart...

    Bring on the Bulldogs! Wherever that may be.

    The main concern I have is the quick turnaround in games against them (reminiscent of vs Penrith round 26/finals week 1 in 2017) but Canterbury are not a good team and the hype around them this year has been beyond ridiculous. Their soft draw has caught up with them in the last 2 weeks and if we...

    Now this is someone we should be looking at, would be a great replacement for Lawton https://www.aapnews.com.au/news/kobe-hetherington-set-to-leave-broncos-oates-nears-end/JQrjmIWBL

    Pre-Game Manly V Sharks [Round 27, 2024]

    Koula to fullback, Faulalo wing, Burbo to bench. Good team list but would have liked to see another hooker on the bench in place of Burbo...

    We are playing for a home final this weekend and they are playing to avoid a 3rd straight wooden spoon

    The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

    Been on and off about Seibold (much like our team's performances under him) but he absolutely nailed that team list on Friday. Starting with Lodge was a masterstroke and making the tough but absolutely correct call in leaving out Burbo showed he can make the right decisions even if it's not so...

    Finals bound

    Don't want to get too far ahead of ourselves as we'd need to win 4 in a row (something we've only done twice in the last 7 seasons) but with the Roosters injuries yesterday we could potentially have a pretty good run into at least a prelim final in Melbourne. Knock off the Sharks who are already...
