    RIP Bobby Fulton

    He was a wonderful man, treated people well, and achieved great things. I wonder if Manly would even exist now had he now been part of the story. This is a real hit, so unexpected, his illness was not public. Such a loss and he will be deeply missed. Rest in peace mate and thanks for...

    PRE-GAME DISCUSSION: Eels v Manly [Round 11, 2021]

    Its a fair stat to quote, just part of the pre-game buildup. I thought that article was a pretty good piece, actually.

    PRE-GAME DISCUSSION: Manly v Broncos [Round 10, 2021]

    23 wins a piece in the head-to-head, with a single draw. Been close like this the last few years. Hopefully a win and start to break away. One of the few teams we don't have a positive H2H against (Storm, Saints.... )

    We are faaaaast

    Lets get Tolu Koulu on the opposite wing to JS - then we'll be fast! I wonder how the two of them would go in a race, presumably Tolu would be the faster given his 100m performance in athletics.

    For & Against: Tom Trbojevic will be Manly's best ever fullback

    Snake had a few of those himself - as we all remember well. Similar issues, out a lot for injury and massive impact on win/loss with him in or not in the team. Our current team does not have a Jamie Lyon equivalent, one reason that Tom might be seen as having move impact when he is there or...

    [Resurrected] Zac Saddler

    Guac got MOM in his first game ... let's see! Zac looks to have great potential - hope he goes well, him and Guac a great potential future second row for us.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Mate I was the only Manly supporter in Tugun in 1984 - glad to hear there are a few more now!

    Lara has the smarts and is a good interviewer. They just love Vonnie for some reason.

    Braith Anasta

    Shane Flanagan's recent comentating showed what someone with both intelligence and insight bring to the commentary box. Braith Anasta adds very little, and some of the Fox commentater hirings they have made leave me baffled - WTF. At least the Broncos were good enough to take Kevvie off their...

    Walker, Sironen, Suli

    What proportion of those respective totals was Turbo playing? Without that data point the comparison not particularly enlightening.

    The Foz & DCE Show

    Agree - seeing they way they supported him after he scored was one of the hight points of the game. Great to have you back Foz.

    Game Day: Manly v Titans [Round 6, 2021]

    I wish I shared your confidence. I think Des will rissole Guaca for Sirro without any hesitation once he is fit to play. Harper will only get a few games. He'll probably do the same with Sipley as well. Its so frustrating and incomprehensible. You hate to wish injuries on anyone, but they...

    The Foz & Turbo Show

    Agree. I'm just worried about injury returns. If it wasn't for injuries, Sipley, Harper, Schuster and Guaca would not have had game time this year, same as last year. Apart from Walker (and hopefully Fainu) there is no-one else you would want back in the team. I hope he gives Saddler a run.

    Commentators

    I know some here won't agree, but I was surprised Fox let Mark Gasnier go - he was their best caller along with Brandy. Guys like Anasta, Parker and Ennis are earnest but don't add much. Also suprised they don't use Lara Pitt more - she is smart and tuned in. Not a huge fan of Vonnie as...

    Manly young guns eyeing releases

    I was at that Broncos game as well, agree with your comments. Not a single game last year for Sipley, and he is still being teased in the team list most weeks only to be let down, while the likes of Boyle and Gowski get a run. He must be a patient bloke, luckily for us.

    PRE-GAME DISCUSSION: Manly v Rabbits [Round 2, 2021]

    Same here. If he makes the obvious changes later in the week, I am all in ... in the meantime, just dumbfounded.

    Will the Real Des Hasler please stand up

    Great post and agree on all points. I have been so frustrated with the team selections, and then to see the performance yesterday shattering all expectation that there may have been learning from last year and the new rules and the manifest issues last year, so profoundly dissapointing. I have...

    Best interview Ever "Snake Stewart"

    Exactly that. These two were quite similar in some ways, both very good at marshalling defence etc. But Snake had the higher ceiling and could have gone 220+ tries with some injury luck. His 0.7 try strike rate includes the later years where he was scoring fewer owing ot injury. He might...

    2020 - 2021 Big change in pace !

    Tola Kuola is up there in Ado Carr territory. JAC quoted at 10.75 seconds over 100m. If he can tackle and organize defence, we might finally have our backup FB.
