    Best Coaches Of All Time

    Hasler best coach of NRL era until the introduction of the 6-again infringements in 2020. In this 21-year period, Bennett took star studded Broncos and Dragons teams to 3 premierships and another GF. But he was helpless at Knights, and the first few years at Brisbane, literally had the QLD...

    [Resurrected] Brandon Smith

    Seibold should move Haumole to the left in any game we play the Roosters next year

    Caleb Navale

    Waddell has experience, can play 80min if needed, and can play edge. I think Navale will be ahead of Brown by season's end however

    [Resurrected] Hasler named Titans coach after shock Holbrook exit

    False. Bulldogs missed the 8 in both 2010 and 2011. Des took over and they made 2 of the next 3 GFs Des was a great coach. Unfortunately, he has not evolved with the game

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    If Roosters really do push for a mid season transfer, say, with an opportunity too good for DCE to refuse, then the issue will be by how much does a sulking DCE further derail our season? It's not like DCE would ever threaten to stop training if his demands were not meant, right? Come on...

    Kaeo Weekes

    You can say what you want about Stuart, but I thoroughly respect his authenticity and the unwavering care and genuine respect he has for his players. I would be proud to have someone of his character coaching our team. His passion is unparalleled, and often comes across as 'having a whinge'. He...

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

    The only thing I would tweak would be a fit Aloiai on the bench over Crokes. If Jazz and Simpkin perform well in their 13 and 9 positions, and Navale kicks on as hoped. I would think we need a little more size from our middles? This keeps a spot left on the bench for Talau 8. Trbojevic 9...

    2026 Captain

    Jake would seem like the obvious choice considering Tom spends too much time out, but he is not known for his training standards. He himself doesn't shy away from the fact that training is not his strong point, but when it comes to game day, there is no fiercer competitor, nor a more loyal Manly...

    Too much speed?

    How good was Matai taking those early runs from dummy half. He was always quick to get there, deceive the markers, gain 10m through sheer acceleration, and get a quick play the ball. Even if our wingers miss their mark, Koula and Garrick should be rushing in to dummy half for a scoot, and not...

    I feel that way about Tyson Gamble for some reason, but don't really know why

    Hooker

    I was all for Starling, especially considering his playing relationship with Fogarty, and the fact his contract situation and value translates to actual attainability for Manly. But after watching Simpkin's performance on Saturday, I think we should back Jake all the way. Zaidas and Ashton to...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    I think the issue, for me at least, was before that contract, and instead when it became known that a first year rookie who found himself in a premiership winning team, said he will stop training if he doesn't immediately see more money. Imagine you are part of a tight-knit group, who worked...

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

    Well done lads, great win. The most controlled and disciplined game in over 8 months. Simpkin, Taukeiaho, Tevaga, Bullemor, Navale great middle third performance. Garrick continues to impress with his growth and maturity Ola'akautu and Tom our match winners. Stoked all day today

    Game Day: Panthers V Manly [Round 8, 2025]

    Actually very interested to see this new look pack play today - looks to be a more mobile rotation. Bully, Jazz, Navale have leg speed over Aloiai, Jake, Sipley respectively. Hoping that Talau improves on yardage carries over Saab. And who knows, maybe Simpkin-Gordie combo may provide more...

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

    Love your optimism, and we should be optimistic given this kind of feels like the last stand. Unfortunately, I see nothing but an almighty shellacking coming our way. Probably the most feeble middle third in the comp, now missing Jake with our other defensive stalwart Croker. No Paseka, and...

    Starling is the one we need

    Jamal Fogarty

    Yes a good kicking game is critical. But this is one of DCE's best qualities, and it hasn't helped us a great deal. Maybe this is the reason we haven't picked up a wooden spoon (although I doubt this - if anything, Jake's ruck defence would be the single determining factor in helping Manly avoid...

    Jamal Fogarty

    The bulk of this logic is based on the assumption that we will be mediocre without DCE, as you put it. If we are currently not a mediocre team, then what are we? How much worse could we be with this forward pack? Would not it be wiser to use much needed cap space on actually fixing the very...

    Middle Forwards

    We need Haumole in the middle. Put Schoupp right edge forward
