    Pre-Game Manly V Tigers [Round 17, 2025]

    We all know manly love playing **** sides back into form but I think this week we will also facilitate the arrival of Latu Fainu as a star. Any bets this kid serves manly a dish of F’you on friday

    Manly In Crisis 2025 edition

    The new coach will need to be a miracle worker given the more recent Hasler-Seibold failures. Neither coach could make sense of a fair roster. Given it’s never the fault of the playing group I pity the fool who puts his hand up. Will need broad shoulders and a sense of humour

    Michael Ennis

    Exactly and what recruitment decisions did he make with his short term ambitions in view. Reminds me of Bennett at the knights. Loaded up for 1 tilt at the premiership and left the cupboard bare.

    Manly In Crisis 2025 edition

    You are forgetting the team that loved Des put in some equally diabolical performances as well. Des had arguably a better side and yet they defended just as badly. Many were happy to see Des go. He ain’t no messiah. Sadly neither is Seibs

    Time for change

    Well you better get used to losing. It’s not the mid 90’s or 2007. We are a feeder club not dissimilar from the Dragons, Tigers, Knights, Titans etc. we are poorly run but we are also let down by our playing group. Crowds have never been bigger yet our performances so insipid. Hopefully we hang...

    We are Laughing stock of the NRL

    A stronger management team should have stripped DCE of the captaincy, possibly negotiated his early release. Yep I blame them also. Your rot started with DCE.

    And DCE’s parting gift to the club. His legacy you may say

    Post-Game Discussion Titans V Manly [Round 15, 2025]

    So very very predictable. losing to the last placed team is of course expected. That’s our thing. Being red hot favourites and getting pumped .. ditto. Expectations for this squad are so low it’s almost hard to care. They are not playing for their captain, each other or the coach. Significant...

    First coach sacked.

    We have been capitulating for the last decade at least. What we have now is a continuation of the same, it’s not new. Poor defence, inability to defend a lead, losing to lowly placed sides, moments of greatness followed by painfully predictable incompetence. Watching the Raiders play highlights...

    The real premiership window - 2027 onwards

    I wouldn’t worry. I can assure you Geoff Toovey was a complete ahole at school also. In fact the earlier description of Walsh fit Toovey perfectly. Suffice to say he mellowed but as an 18 year old he was not likeable.

    Strategy

    Do you ever hold the players and your beloved DCE accountable? Siebold is no Bellamy we know that. The soft underbelly of this side and inability to grind out a win goes back many years. I’d argue the chaotic on field leadership has just as much to do with it. Perhaps it’s no surprise that DCE...

    Who abducted the team from the 1st half ??

    Agree, it’s not losing that burns it’s the way they keep throwing games. Seriously how many people could feel a 2nd half capitulation coming before they even ran back on the field. We get run down so often it’s beyond predictable. It’s almost a surprise when we don’t. The players seem unaffected...

    Who abducted the team from the 1st half ??

    Yes both missed a stack of tackles

    Post-Game Discussion Knights V Manly [Round 14, 2025]

    That frivolous kick with a minute to go in the first half wreaked of DCE arrogance. Felt like the Canberra 20 nil capitulation of last year. Another chapter of gutless stupidity from this mob. Such potential but so little heart. Absolute pretenders

    Game Day: Knights V Manly [Round 14, 2025]

    So very predictable. Anyone read this book before. Manly out to a big lead, get cocky and wasteful and try hard to throw it away

    Young Forwards - Do we have any?

    From memory the Vautin v Fulton blow up was based on similar issues I.e. Bozo kept picking his fairly ordinary son to sit in the bench at the expense of better more useful players. This was talked about post GF loss in 97. In an era where no one carried a sub hooker, we were a player short with...

    Sea Eagles' Feet of Clay

    Yep don’t disagree. The owners are not blameless and our back office ain’t no Arko or Stanton. I just expect the coaching staff to impart more influence over the squad than an owner who lives in NY. We haven’t lacked talent. We’ve lacked substance and desire. Speculating obviously but I’m...

    Sea Eagles' Feet of Clay

    this constant blaming of the owners feels misplaced. They aren’t involved like Politis and I’m not sure we want them to be. Salaried staff run the joint. It’s fair to say we were always a factional mess until the Fulton influence was finally removed but surely the back office is now cohesive...

    Game Day: Eels V Manly [Round 12, 2025]

    Unless the owner chooses the players, coaches the players and has a run himself I’m not sure what you want him to do. This mess is a decade in the making. Mostly caused by Terrible recruitment decisions. Some ****e coaching hasn’t helped

    Game Day: Eels V Manly [Round 12, 2025]

    Losing to the last placed side. Seriously is anyone surprised.
