    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Storm [Round 16, 2022]

    She’ll be right mate. On the bright side - no injuries or on reports, gave Jake a break with 10 to go and Ola with 20 to go. Played in first gear first 15 minutes and last 10 and still beat a Top 2 team. What really impressed me was our defence for 70 minutes, our kick returns, and forwards...

    How to feel deflated after winning? .... Follow Manly

    It wasn’t that. Marty’s one became 26-12. He wasn’t even on the field the last 10. It began when both Schuster and Keppie came on the field. But… a win is a win and that against a top 2 team. We blew them off the park and Des took off Ola and Jake. Post the bye we will be good as no more...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    He seems to be the problem last 2 games as when he comes on he has replaced a forward who was doing very well and he comes on, lazy on defence, and gives the opposition a leg up. Des has to decide to either start him, or send him to Blacktown. He may be penalised by Des for his management...

    Wishing every one a Merry Manly Finals Journey

    I I was thinking similar and went on the ladder predictor as well. We can still finish as high at 4th if other results go our way, or as low as 10th. My view is that the team has been playing a lot better the last 4 weeks without Turbo, with the Storm loss the only one which we lost by 20 but...

    Pre-Game Manly v Storm [Round 16, 2022]

    If we play the full 80 like we did the first 73 minutes we can win by 13+. The boys have 2 weeks to make sure they play 80 minutes. Have faith in the team. It’s was 4 minutes of switching off thst cost us but we were all over them for 73 minutes.

    Taking the 2 Points from Penalties

    Against top teams take whatever points are easy to take as they may come in handy in close games. It’s the coaches box that sends the message down.

    Sorry all catching up on overnight posts 😂 hence why I’m back to back - like our winning streak.

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Cowboys [Round 15, 2022]

    Time for Schu to start and Davey back to the bench. We lose something in attack when Davey plays but he is good defensively.

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Cowboys [Round 15, 2022]

    8 minutes to go, Crocker kicks ball downfield, Drinkwater let’s in run in his ingoal then beats 2 defenders to get infield, Koula tackles him then ref blows a penalty for not being square when he was. Cowboys kick from penalty, go downfield, kick and score. 26-18. Manly kick off, Cowboys keep...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Cowboys [Round 15, 2022]

    We were the better team with DCE playing for 73 minutes. People forget his kicks that go us in good field position. It’s the last 7 minutes which is on the entire team not just 1 player. Yes he may have dropped the ball for the last try but it was Drinkwater making a play on his hand. We were...

    Stick ya no looker up your arrse

    It wasn’t his fault. It was our urgency last 7 minutes that cost us. That kick chase where Drinkwater got out of his ingoal followed by the penalty was the game changer. And the Nanai setup which he hadn’t run 10 metres.

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Cowboys [Round 15, 2022]

    All started when the ref determine Nanai ran 10 metres forward when he ran 5 metres and Robson wasn’t onside. That changed the game as the Cowboys just threw the ball around for next try, then DCE was knocked free - I’d say more a Drinkwater knock on the arm that knocked the ball out. We...

    Game Day: Manly v Cowboys [Round 15, 2022]

    Geez that was a great first half from us. We missed few chances to be 22 nil up, Walker bad bounce and Ola over the line. Clearly the ref has got the Cowboys back in the game with some 50/50 penalties. We start well in second half and we have this. For me Schuster will be a game breaker.

    [Resurrected] Jackson Hastings

    Affecting my Fantasy team last 3 rounds. He was going good and showed the passion and I think Madge’s exit has resulted in form drop.

    Game Day: Manly v Warriors [Round 13, 2022]

    Doesn’t matter which team we play that half has been our best football since the Cowboys game last season. The forwards were all over the Warriors - it’s more our go forward and the defence that has not allowed the Warriors in the game at all.

    SOO, Jake, DCE, general discussion

    Hopefully Jake will now realise that he is not a walk-in to the squad and needs to get his performance back up again. Look for a big game this weekend against the Warriors. The players picked have shown form lately hence why their clubs sit much higher than ours. I’d rather have a fired up...

    This is a bottom 4 team

    And… next week Saab will be picked over Jorge. I would bite the bullet and put Weekes at FB, Garrick and Saab as wingers, Koula and Tui as centres for rest of season. Schuster to start instead of Davey and Davey to be used off the bench. We defended very well tonight, just some silly mistakes...

    [Resurrected] Turbo injury,healt..wait..injury - updates

    5 months is max time, it’s minimum 3 months but being in a contact sport and depending where we are placed in 12 weeks time it may be season over. At least it gives him time to build more mass on his legs to avoid future hamstring and knee issues. Good luck on his surgery and rehab.

    Season Over?

    When Turbo was out earlier this season we actually played alright and other players stepped up. We belted the Knights then had a good win against the Titan, take away Talakai we came back strong second half against the Sharks, and didn’t do too badly with 12 man against Souths. Having Turbo out...
