    [Resurrected] Zac Saddler

    I get the feeling he could be a late late bloomer. Like BJ for us, now Davey. One of those kids at 27 you read who says he wishes he would have applied himself etc. We will see.

    Tolu Koula

    Truly, if Koula comes good, imagine the speed we have on the paddock!! I've been a supporter since 1980 or so and I can't remember so much pace. Tom, Saab, Koula and Garrick. Our centres are too slow and we need a strike weapon on one of them at least to win the comp. Defences know they can...

    Manase Fainu

    I reckon guys mentally he would be struggling with what is happening in his life for so long. Shoulders, can't play, the court case being delayed. He's a young kid and probably is really lost at present. Not making excuses for him though but it would be a tough time as he also sees his brothers...

    Tolu Koula

    Imagine if Tommy and Saab did their hammies in this race. Harry would be immediately put in a "safe" location and whisked out of the peninsula never to return. :p

    Five Sea Eagles named in NSW Future Blues

    Ahh, got it wrong, well at least he's been with us for a few years then. ;)

    Five Sea Eagles named in NSW Future Blues

    The pathways is doing great. I remember going 15-20 years ago and we would be mostly locals and getting flogged. I hardly remember seeing many kid from the juniors coming through. Obviously Beaver and Tooves!!!! Now the Fultons and team are making great signings and our strength is going up and up.

    Five Sea Eagles named in NSW Future Blues

    Josh Feledy the try scoring centre is another local. Ben T, Weekes is North Sydney area, highly rated rep prop Alec T, other prop James Uesele ( I think) Daniel O'Donnell (from David) Levi Hoppa, as mentioned Ollie Cummins is talented. Smoking Joe could add to this as he knows his stuff.

    Lawton a gun

    Yes, where does he fit into the 17 unless he is taking Croker's spot? You can't have him and Walker on the bench at the same time. Bit like Morgan Boyle. Not sure where he fits either?

    Five Sea Eagles named in NSW Future Blues

    Roy came from nowhere in the juniors and has killed it. A huge left sided 2nd rower which we really need in the future. Big guy and fast. Another Westfield kid and I think Hales has got great relationships there.

    Kikau signs deal with Bulldogs for 2023, as picture in rival colours angers Panthers

    THE NRL is mad for allowing this to happen. Taking photos. I'm sorry, absolutely no loyalty and if he was one of our boys then send him to Blacktown. This type of stuff kills the fabric of clubs trying to win comps. There is no way now he can give 100% to Panthers. His mind is now elsewhere and...

    Latu Fainu

    Interesting for Josh, not sure he would want 2nd row to be his future?? Latu and Humphries are only halves.

    Is anyone able to post the article as it's behind a paywall.

    Latu Fainu

    I think the respect the club have from his family and the wider Islander community will pay us back big time in the future. I don't blame guys trying to get a pay day as their careers are only 10 years as well. You can see the great work happening in the Pathways and kids finally coming through...

    Our Centre Dilemma - or is it ?

    Can't win the premiership with those two.

    Manase Fainu

    Absolute agree, I have been thinking of this. He surely could sue for damages and loss of earnings. How could he not? He was proven innocent. I also think nearly 3 years of stand downs for a player who still remains not convicted is wrong. And I mean any club as well.

    Manase Fainu

    Amazing family coming through. The respect we will receive of the Islander community will pay off in the future. Latu the 5/8 from Matts will be an absolute superstar in the next few years. He is playing up an age group and was the best player in the comp. Sam the front rower will be too.

    The Hoppa Poll . Change vote option activated

    It is such a sad thing that when you think that there was a whole lot of John's kids who were local rep juniors and Dad was a star at our club and none ever made it with us, except Will, who left us straight away. Then you look at Tom, Jake and Ben. The Hopoates will always have a masive chip on...

    Does Manly pack have enough Mongrel ?

    I really hope we don't lose out with Koula. You can't coach that pace and he is so fast guys like him will change the way defences work. Look at Jimmy the Jet, I now he had issues but imagine marking him, if he got away from you he was gone. Bit like Saab in the clear. It also would make it...
