    [Resurrected] Keith Titmuss death: Family turns to Australian Brain Bank

    Not a fan of Scamps, but she isn't wrong. Those dangerously hot conditions increasing in frequency will increase the odds of heatstroke. That's not political, that's scientific fact, and is already significantly affecting the productivity of South East Asian and Central Africa. Conflating it...

    Pre-Game Manly V Sharks [Round 10, 2025]

    Remember that when he arrived at Manly, he immediately moved Jake to prop. Unfortunately our only other lock options were Aloiai and Keppie. I would not be surprised to see him move him to prop, once we have at least three other NRL-ready lock options. Currently we have two, and Navale is slowly...

    Post-Game Discussion Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    Roy Masters is commending the refereeing of this game. Are you kidding? Retire old mate. There were four successful challenges, and the head high calls were so bad that they had to overrule precedent of not being able to challenge them. I cannot see how anyone can commend the bunker or the...

    Pre-Game Manly V Sharks [Round 10, 2025]

    Whoops thought this was round nine... You're correct. In that case I hope it's Jake and Taukeiaho as starting props. Aloiai off the bench, with Brown, Bullemor, and the remaining spot Navale vs Talau. I think Talau will be selected ahead of Navale. Given Navale only got ten minutes, I figure...

    Is Mestrov looking to get out?

    I think it is very clear that Mestrov has favoured News Corp for a long time... Even long before the DCE saga. Brent Read and Buzz seemed to be the people Manly would send info to in the media. Weirdo got the scoop from DCE, and absolutely nothing else after that, and hence is still pissed...

    Pre-Game Manly V Sharks [Round 10, 2025]

    I like that list but I'm fairly sure we get Lodge back next week. Had a pretty quiet game in NSW Cup, but after a couple of weeks of training with the NRL squad, and in the absence of Paseka, I think he's a must. I think Bullemor was great starting, but still plays his best footy off the...

    The Elephant in the room

    Yep I'll give you credit for that. You do stick around, and to your word, even if I think your word is completely rubbish 🤣 Much prefer that than a lot of the people here, who just disappear when the narrative is against their opinion for that time.

    The Haumole Bible.

    We have him till 2031 on a pretty good deal. I keep pinching myself about that fact. The fact that he has great ball-playing potential, and is one of the fittest on this team, means that deal can't really go the same way Taumalolo and Jake did. He'll be performing until the end. Absolute beast.

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    Yep. Seibold at training, he picked the team, and then told DCE to ****ing sort out the game plan so he can go back to Macca's to have a nap. Are you ever happy?

    Ruben Garrick's chances of playing Origin

    He's missed like one or two try-causing tackles this year. People are acting like he's Casey McClean, and there's just a gaping hole there. For a first grade centre, and particularly one situated against the direction of most attack in the NRL, he's done very well and has improved.

    The Jazz thread ... all that Jazz

    I'd play him at 14, coming off the bench to play 40 mins at lock, and 10 mins at hooker to spell Simpkin. Jake will clearly be more effective with less minutes now. The #9 is Simpkin's to lose now. Jazz is a lock, and our best one.

    The Elephant in the room

    To the Spoonbold brigade, who are shockingly absent, who thought we would have 50 put on us - ye have little faith. I tipped us this week, and I was right. Our execution was greater with longer prep. Just don't ask me if I tipped Manly last week lol

    Pre-Game Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    Going to this game... Actually have some faith that we can get this one done. Seibold said that this week was the first time in a month that they have been able to train 13 vs 13. Absolutely crazy. Given our style of footy, I think drill and preparation is our Achilles heel. If we don't get...

    Jacob Samoa

    The original comments here aged like milk... Blacktown was absolutely garbage. Hope the new solutions bring more than mediocrity.

    Manly Needs a Full Reset

    I can't help but think that everyone is overreacting... We lost three in a row last year, beat the Storm. We lost three in a row this year, we play the Panthers. Obviously there are long term structural issues with the club, but I've maintained that opinion even when we have been winning. A lot...

    Tof Sipley

    Sitili Tupouniua gets five weeks, for two intentional knees to someone's head, and a shoulder to a head. Isn't even referred to the judiciary. Meanwhile, unconcious Sipley drops on someone's legs accidentally, and is referred straight there, and given four weeks. What a ****ing farce. A...

    Pre-Game Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    As in Navale replacing Bullemor? Or both Navale and Bullemor?

    Should Turbo/DCE Play State of Origin?

    What are the odds that the unsigned Bullemor makes it, but not any of them lol

    Pre-Game Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    So it'll probably be Hopoate next to Garrick. Same centre/wing pairings as the finals last year. I don't know if Faulalo even gets the bench spot to be honest, Talau might've only been in the team for Saab.

    NSW Cup 2025

    Arguably our only product was Haumole Olakau'atu... By chance too, because he was in Parramatta's system originally. How embarrassing. Everyone else came through locally (Hopoate, B Trbojevic, etc)
