    Trial V Panthers

    I must say how I've missed the footy! This place really goes off after a loss, highly entertaining

    Bench for 2025

    But Nella doesn't really assert dominance in the first 20 - in fact, rarely does any individual front rower. During the opening exchanges, dominance is gained through collective aggression, high energy and line speed, and quick play-the-balls. It is always during Nella's second stint, when the...

    The first 8 rounds will define the year

    Given Seibold historically has his teams starting fast out of the blocks, it will be during the Origin period and back end of the season, when niggling injuries accumulate and when the top tier teams step it up a notch, when we will actually see if this team is made of the right stuff.

    Bench for 2025

    This is why I would have Koula on the bench. He would provide backs cover, but if this was not needed, he would come on the back 20mins of each half and tear through the middle of tiring oppositions. An explosive bench could be: 14 Koula 15 Tevaga 16 Paseka 17 Bullemor 18 Brown / Navale /...

    Trial V Panthers

    I think he's recovering from a minor injury/illness from memory

    Depth

    My point is merely that there is a group of tough and seasoned NRL forwards playing in our reserve grade team. This is not common. Definitely agree that hooking position is still a relative weakness. But I still believe what we have is good enough, if the rest work to their potential.

    Depth

    If Taukeiaho, Waddell, Lodge, Patolo, Sipley, Chee Kam can't make your 17, I think this is indicative of pretty decent forward depth. Whilst we don't have Harry Grant on the books, the combination of Croker, Tevaga, Simpkin, and GCKT looks to be a pretty serviceable group of hooking options...

    Depth

    Navale offers leg speed, a quick play the ball, and tireless workrate in defence. Not flashy, but a more mobile lock than Jake. Also has the right attitude for this position, a leader by action in the lower grades. Won't be commanding big $ for a while, if ever, yet can already hold his own with...

    Trial V Wabbits

    For our second string team, that looks like a fairy decent and NRL-experienced forward pack.

    The Bully files

    Broken record mate... 1) This is not the same team of 11 years 2) Bullemor's defensive issue have nothing to do with missed tackles 3) You can't possibly compare tackle efficiency between a middle and an edge 4) By what metric are you rating Burbo as slow?

    The Silvertail's optimism pulse 2025.

    Well, for starters, Taukeiaho in for Condon, Patolo, Tevaga, and Chee Kam all in for Shuster and Lawton, are trades that technically offer an improvement. But more importantly, these should provide a fair bit experience, energy, and aggression, and such competition will motivate guys like Ben...

    one area Manly must improve in 2025

    An improvement in our defence to the same magnitude as the Bulldogs made last season

    DCE to announce retierment

    I think a halves combination of Arthur and Brooks will be more than adequate, for at least a transition period, provided Arthur gets in some much needed field time this year, and DCE's salary is well spent on strengthening our middle third.

    Can Taukeiaho & Tevaga add that "Brown" impact ?

    Fair enough, thanks for the clarification. That being said, I still think Chee Kam has something to offer and will be playing a fair bit for us this season

    Can Taukeiaho & Tevaga add that "Brown" impact ?

    Although I rate Burbo's potential, at this stage Chee Kam is without doubt the club's second best edge forward (which says more about our lack of quality depth in this position). MCK played almost every game last year starting 2nd Row and did pretty well when often starting centre. He's a more...

    If we are to go all the way in 2025 who is in our 17?

    I wholeheartedly agree with you re our mobility, speed and creativity issues plaguing our middle third. Whilst I believe Jake's role should be tweaked, to suggest that his selection in our team has been the reason we have regularly missed the finals, is absolutely ludicrous. If anything, without...
