    [Resurrected] We are at rock bottom!

    I started reading this thread, not realising it was from 2015! Somehow it still felt relevant though 😔 My initial thoughts were, it’s not rock bottom unless we finish last. I have to admit, it does feel pretty bad this morning, after how the team lost last night.

    Happy to see the end of this season...

    Once Tom got injured, you could almost sense the dejection that they couldn’t do it without him. However then they seemed to find some form with strong showings against both the Cowboys and Storm and it looked like, if they could fix those late fade outs, they might be half a chance. Then came...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Eels [Round 21, 2022]

    It was only going 1 of 2 ways. Play with unity and spirit, like a team that wanted to play finals. Or look like a divided and disinterested team that just wants the season to be over. We got the latter. It wasn’t even like Parramatta appeared to want it more, to me they just went thru the...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Roosters [Round 20, 2022]

    Really good effort by the 17 that showed up. To think if a couple of passes stuck, we might have won. The Roosters were way off their recent form and all the drama around the match, clearly effected them as well. Smalley went well enough to keep his spot over Saab for the rest of the season ...

    Poll added - Sea Eagles Everyone in League jersey

    It’ll be interesting to see how all of this shakes out over the 6 months. The group that are playing, how are they going to view those that aren’t? It’s a team sport and regardless of how angry you may be with the club, you don’t leave your teammates hung out to dry like that. Or the flipside...

    Yep, my sentiments exactly

    Poll added - Sea Eagles Everyone in League jersey

    What a day. In a nutshell; I strongly support the notion of inclusivity the jersey was supposed to represent. However I’m furious with the club administration, for the breathtakingly poor execution of it. I also support the players right to decline to be involved. But I’m my heart, I can’t help...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Cowboys [Round 15, 2022]

    This. He’s been at the club a very long time and done plenty of good things and won us some games. However, if there was ever a player that just goes thru the motions to collect his check every week, regardless of the result, it’s him. Twice now we’ve had the choice of keeping Foran or DCE and...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I know these “no look passes” have a general perception of being “too flashy” and “risky”. However can you name anyone currently playing, that does it better? In the juniors, he was very much a running #6, who would constantly take on the line, often with the ball in only 1 hand. Then draw the...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Warriors [Round 13, 2022]

    Happy with the win of course but apart from Foran’s general play, there looked to be little, to no attacking structure. I can appreciate Schuster was having his first start in the #6 in a long time and “structured plays” aren’t exactly his thing. Perhaps it gave us a glimpse of what next year...

    Is it time to face the facts ?…..

    If Tom played centre, he’d still be our best player, so yes it’s an option. However as others have said, if we didn’t play him at fullback, there’s at least a dozen teams that would happily pay him $1M+ to be their #1. He’s the best fullback in the world (when fully fit) and we’re incredibly...

    Fullback - Koula,Weekes or Garrick

    Shifting our #1 winger away from his best and preferred position, to play him at fullback is not a smart or forward thinking move. Although Des does have form with this, remember the days of playing Robbo at fullback when Brett was out. I was against it then as I am now. Koula is a fullback...

    Fullback - Koula,Weekes or Garrick

    Whenever Garrick is put into fullback, the thing that strikes me the most, is how slow he is to accelerate or change direction. It’s strange as once he winds up, his top speed is up there with the best of them. I can’t fault the effort but he’s much better on the wing. He’s a terrific finisher...

    Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 11, 2022]

    Yep, I couldn’t believe DCE didn’t have the common sense to take the 2 points in a tight game. Instead he rolled the dice with 55 seconds to go… dumb.

    Really proud of the effort but Cummins was the difference between the two sides. He’s a disgrace. I just hope Turbo is ok.

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Broncos [Round 10, 2022]

    Wow, that was embarrassing! I thought a win tonight was unlikely, considering their recent form compared to ours but not a 38 point thumping. We do look like we’re carrying some injured players and they’re not playing with much confidence. They just need to ride this period out, get over the...

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    Yep I tend to agree. Jake doesn’t offer enough in attack playing in the #13. He’s arguably our best defender and makes plenty of metres, when he just concentrates on hitting it up. That’s a role for a Prop. Schuster is so good, he could play Just about anywhere and have an impact. I’m sure in...

    The Kieran Forum

    He’s always been an elite/rep level player. There’s no doubt, he’s coming towards the end of a very good career and his best form has been whilst with us. He offers so much to the team, as long as he’s healthy and form is good, we’d be crazy to move him out of the #6.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    He was really good. Short on match fitness and looks to be at his heaviest playing weight but he kept going and always looked threatening. Once we get both Tom and Haumole back, the 3 of them are going to absolutely kill it.

    Post-Game Discussion Souths v Manly [Round 8, 2022]

    Another week, another loss. Yes they were brave and had a dig etc. Yes there were of other factors, injuries and suspensions and the send off but at the end of the day, they made too many mistakes. I’ve said this before, we’ve got plenty of good players and when we have anything near our full...
