    The great expansion conundrum....

    I will admit I haven't spent as much time thinking about this one as many others on here - but it hit home with the whole Humphries/Souths debate: We are living in a Rugby League world of Salary Caps and Expansion. It generally means that teams can only afford to keep so many players on their...

    Another Positive moving forward - Potential young guns

    I think the broader point here (and I like the thread intent BTW) is that we seem to still be producing talent through a range of pathways. Humphries is leaving - it is a shame..... But wouldn't it be worse if we didn't even have a bunch of players like Humphries in the first place? There is no...

    Nathan Brown Wins Us the Game

    He was great for 10-15 mins … yes Give him Credit for sure But DCE won us the game And Jake kept us in it

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    SEVEN times this man had done it in golden point Honestly Those ‘fans’ that dump on him and blame him for our performance are genuinely flippin stupid. This guy is the greatest player in our history…. Start appreciating him - hes the GOAT of Manly. That was amazing.

    [Resurrected] Lol @ Parra

    WOW - can you imagine if they bring back a 70 year old under achiever to coach them after being away from the club for so many years..... It is a crazy thought! Seriously - there does seem to be a massive gap in terms of coaching quality out there at the moment. Certainly none dumb enough to...

    Origin II - 2024

    The narrative down here in the Media has been anger and frustration that the AFL has again let the NRL swan in on a Wednesday night and not have ANY AFL competition up against them. They don't even have a Thursday night game this week... they've rolled out the red carpet, and the Friday night...

    Origin II - 2024

    Geez I hope we see Jake get more minutes tonight and allow him to take the lead properly. he deserves to be allowed to do his job - he never lets us down!

    Origin II - 2024

    Weather Update from Melbourne CBD: I don't know what the BoM are smoking (showers this morning?) But from my office it is clear skies and sunshine.... And no dew this morning either. Its crisp (7 degrees on my walk to work) but there was frost for the few days prior.... so I think it should be good!

    Jason Saab

    The long contracts are an intersting one actually..... There has been quite a bit of discontent about player managers and their influence. Doesn't a long contract kind of remove the issue or manager agitation for moves etc? Anyways.... for me, I love Saab.... i think its great to have the...

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    Mestrov and Siebold have an open agreement to start contract discussions after round 10 - which roughly equates to 'when you have 18 months left on your contract/half way in lets chat and see if we want to keep working together'. Seems like a pretty standard approach to how an employer and...

    Is Mestrov really our Messiah?

    Not throwing any shade at the original poster @Uber Eagle 72 This was just the last title dedicated to Mestrov. But on the back of the contract revelations over nights, I thought it worth throwing some individual credit his way. What an 18 months he has had since taking the reigns. Think back...

    2024 Optimist/Pessimist Thread - How are you feeling?

    I think my optimism is born more from the positive signs in the team rather than the actual results at the moment. Our forwards have always worried me for the last 5 years (since the decline of Tapau, and the lack of drive from Paseka). But with Brown, Waddell, Lodge et al starting to really...

    Who is in better form?

    I love how different they are. For me, Jake is always an 8/10..... so consistent. But never a 10. Tom is not injured - so now just working on form and confidence IMO. He is building - ut HEAPS of upside Burbo for me is most improved and showing a level we have only really heard about from match...

    2024 Optimist/Pessimist Thread - How are you feeling?

    Well - the optimism levels have stayed high, despite the shocker against the Dragons. I must say - if you had told me we would be 3-2 after the first 5 rounds, the the wins would be against Panthers, Roosters and Souths - we all would have taken that. Wahs, Tits, Eels and Raiders to come - 3...

    The Jurbo Journal - (just a really nice Jake thread)

    So you're blaming his parents, Mr and Mrs T? Crickey mate - ease up! ;-)

    2024 Dally M points

    Looks pretty well aligned to what everyone said in the MVP thread. No one clear standout - but lots of contributions! Great to see Ola doing well - he MUST make Origin IMO

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Geez he was good yesterday. Having a good number 6 to take the pressure off him has done the world of good. I think we may almost now have the fast halves pairing in the comp!

    2024 Optimist/Pessimist Thread - How are you feeling?

    88.5% after the Roosters win.... What on earth as to happen to get that grumpy 11.5% to turn their frown upside down???

    Has the Vegas experiment been a success?

    It is hard to get a good gauge on whether or not it has gone well - mainly because the only coverage of it is coming from Fox Sports, and they are spinning it deluxe like fairy floss. So putting aside the bias from the coverage for a minute - it certainly looks like it has been a success. Our...

    2024 Optimist/Pessimist Thread - How are you feeling?

    88.2% optimistic And why the bloody hell not after beating south’s in game 1. Well done Mr Seivild - so far so good. Fitness looks excellent. Brooks a top addition. But an injury to Saab - do we feel confident we have enough coverage? It’s one of our deeper positions at least Cmon you Eagles!
