    Keep your Inglis/Slaters

    Snake Stewart is the best No 1 in the game. Maybe not as strong as Inglis or dynamic as Slater but his allroung game is the best out there. This includes defence , positional play, making good decisions, reliability, guts, setting up supports, outstanding backup play & what many dont talk...

    2013 Seaeagles VERY underrated

    To start the year many as always, many were calling the side too old & lacked this or that. The recruitment has proved top shelf with the best bargain buys you would ever find in Horo , Lawrence & Fa'aso who have raised the tempo in the Seaeagles to another level. Imo the best outside backs in...

    Much better lines and structure in attack.

    Structure & shape has improved due to more bodies in motion. This is creating plenty of poor reads from the defence & instead of always hitting the 2nd man play at the back ( usually B Stewart) are also hitting the A & B runners flat & short ( Horo, Buhrer) creating far less predictability...

    I Miss TREX

    If he had the aggression of Fa'aso & the motor of Lawrence it would be a sad loss. Fact is for every 1 of these big plays he gives away 10 penalties & allows 3-4 line breaks through lazy defence plus some dropped ball....generally disinterested in 2013.

    Manly, penalties, referees, Tooves & Bellyache

    You beat me to it Mick, we got doubled in penalties in the following game to this supposed outburst where everyone, bar Bellamy & his pet gerbil thought Toovey was on the money. Also still think the Hiku no try has slid under the carpet again, common sense try all day. Moral of the...

    2013 Rumoured and confirmed signings.

    Tbh I am a Rose fan - not the conventional build of the modern foward but ALWAYS adds go foward & replays of opposition tries rarely show him up - if its a supposed exchange for big George its thumbs down for mine.

    2013 Rumoured and confirmed signings.

    Have seen worse turn into solid players under the Manly system. Have kept an eye out during Brocs games since this link weeks ago & he seems fairly rugged, but misses a few tackles & did not penetrate as much as expected in those particular games.

    2013 Ladder and Finals predictor

    Got a Manly/Storm GF. They have been the dominant teams over the past 7 or so years & apart from injuries at vital times - particularly Manly imo, they could easily have won EVERY premiership between them in this period. Roosters/Souths still the main rivals but these 2 above know how to...

    Obstruction Rule

    Yeah its a frustrating situation with fines for speaking the truth, but all the ridiculous things the average punter can see clearly on the 1st replay they look at every angle 8 times. Then when its debatable they dont look once???? :huh: This play is almost impossible to defend when executed...

    Resting players

    The players will benefit more from weekly footy leading up to the finals, rest is not the best unless carrying an injury. Its more an opportunity to perhaps give the bench players more time on the field to harden them for the big games ahead. In the case of Brett Stewart - save him for week 1...

    Obstruction Rule

    99 out of 100 times the video ref will look at these & by the same token only get 70% right. Thing is why was there not a 2nd viewing of the Hiku try?? Watch the replay & its a straight out poor defensive read allowing Hiku an easy passage to the line.

    Sad News For Me

    Well done Buhrer

    Has improved as the season kicked on. Seems to be a little more rugged with his approach & his contact both in defence & attack seem tougher. Rewarded with a great angled run for a try that will be great for confidence leading into the finals. Earlier this year Buhrer seemed to be coming off...

    Obstruction Rule

    Have a bad feeling this grey area will cost a team in the finals & hope its not Manly..... Hiku strolled through for his 2nd try & was called back immediately without the usual 12 replays with the video ref. On a closer inspection the defender clearly makes a bad read & is actually the one who...

    This Ammo Helps!!

    Not much help from that direction....

    This Ammo Helps!!

    Its all so familiar - don't they learn?? All this Manly hating is what binds the club, officials, fans & most importantly the players together so strongly. The poor refereeing with Tooves stepping up to the plate speaking out loud showing his players the tenacity & passion he has for his...

    DCE and Stewart bros rift?

    There seems truth in Broncos wanting DCE - what team wouldn't?? Also may well be some rifts between certain players but in saying that, what team does not have this?? We are talking competitive world class players & anyone who thinks this only happens at Manly needs to crawl back under their...

    R24 MANLY NSW CUP V CRONULLA

    Chisolm is on the bench to add some thrust, hoping defensively they can halt a Sharks attacking outfit thats been scoring tries for fun this season. He is there for the same reason he has not been playing NRL, his defence comes up short & against possably the best offensive team in the NSW Cup...

    Inglis - Are you still there??

    Yeh I fell for the old bring back the traditional Souths hype elevated by the nrl at the time. Actually enjoyed seeing them start building a competitive footy side. Confess to supporting them big time in a final they lost to the Dogs last year after Reynolds went off injured & with Manly out...

    Cannonball will cripple

    After watching another replay of Manly/Souths there was a repeated trend of 2 players holding up a Manly attacker & a 3rd man (Luke) usually diving very intentionally at the players knees. This must be rubbed out asap before a player is crippled to the point of no return. This is a tackle...
