    Not sure what the fascination is with bringing in assistant coaches. Ennis is the being pushed by the media and Ballin is just Silvertailers fixated by the need to have a former Manly player be the coach. In the NRL era,only Bellamy,Ricky,Des and Flanagan(which doesn’t count), have won...

    There were poor results but I believe the fact his now ex wife and kids were still living in Brisbane and he was commuting every week to Sydney,played a part

    If they try to get him prior to June 30,it’ll either cost Manly/Penn,$$$ and we all know how cheap they are,or it’ll cost Manly a player that a) wants to leave or b) Tigers want and not sure there’s anyone they’d find enticing ot affordable for Manly to let go.Saab would be an option as the...

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

    I hope someone gets into Lodge’s ear just before they take the field and suggest he walk out rather than run out onto the ground ,because last time he played FG,he looked stuffed just taking his reserves jacket off

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

    Since when has Lodge ever given the team anything near 8/10? His last first grade appearance was quite possibly one of the worst front performances ever from a Manly front rower and even Grant Wooden was embarrassed

    I think the idea,from Tigers point of view,was that if they let him go now or end of this season,they can get some sort of compensation,$$ or even a player,which is why the Knights were in the conversation due to KPP,who is already heading to Wests in ‘26.Where as if they make him stay til the...

    Is the draft the only way to even the playing field?

    That’s why I said 6 of the top 8 and the Panthers are the perfect example of how to build a club.Admittedly they have a much larger junior nursery than so many clubs,but they were once down where Manly are and built to what theyve become

    Is the draft the only way to even the playing field?

    The irony of it all is that the wealthiest club in the comp,almost any Australian sport for that matter,the Broncos,haven’t won for near on 20 yrs,so it’s not all about $$$

    Is the draft the only way to even the playing field?

    Where are these “facts” that the Dogs offered him that much?A James Hooper story?(which I researched)

    Manoeuvre to where? Not the best time to be going to the market for quality players given 2 new teams are about to join in the coming yrs.Build from within is the only way to not stuff the cap

    Is the draft the only way to even the playing field?

    As I said,the draft would require a whole change in how the game is set up in Australia.Maybe an internal draft could work,as in players that have already played first grade.For eg Galvin wanting out of the Tigers,but like the AFL,players who want to leave their current club basically end up at...

    Is the draft the only way to even the playing field?

    With checking,I believe I’m right with that statement as well.Leaving Penrith and Storm out,6 of the 8 have 2 between them,Broncos 2006 and Sharks 2016

    Is the draft the only way to even the playing field?

    Then maybe do some checking

    Is the draft the only way to even the playing field?

    How did the Dogs sign Galvin to a “cut price deal”? He will be paid more at the Dogs this season and next than his original contract at the Tigers.Just because the Tigers offered him a million dollars to extend,doesn’t mean that’s Galvin’s market price.Was JakeT’s market price worth $900K...

    Mestrov’s error was re-signing Seibold,which meant DCE wanted out,much like when he asked for a release earlier in ‘24. To be fair to Mestrov though,Seibold was probably entitled to an extension of sorts,given he’d just taken the team to the second week of the finals.It also sounds as though the...

    Michael Ennis

    No,I’m dismissing him out of hand. He has the same League intellect as Seibold,great at the X’s and O’s,but doesn’t have that personal touch like a Bennett or Bellamy,where a player can trust them with their deepest secrets,so to speak.

    Thought we were trying to get rid of old players.Api is 33 this year

    Tallyn Da Silva

    True but at least he’s been stuck behind one of the best no.9’s in the comp,unlike the other Tiger rejects Manly have signed,who were beaten to their positions by witches hats and tackling bags

    Sack Seibold Immediately

    I believe there is as many in the 19’s Origin as there were in the one last night
