    Turbo good to go

    Tom has to be hampered. Maybe 80% at best. I cannot see how he impacts the game in a positive way. Cronk was protected all game at 1/2. Tom will be exposed to high balls and his game revolves around a lot of involvement. p.s. it may not matter. if we defend like we did against the Sharks...

    Waddell - a pleasant surprise

    WTF. 3 years? Could understand a 1 year extension. Hope it is on minimum salary.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    You may be right however he was given every opportunity to succeed at manly under both Des and Siebold. I think even Schuster has admitted that a) he got a fair go; and b) he just wasn't in the right head space. I wish him well however it was not meant to be at Manly. Schuster has to take...

    Pre-Game Manly V Warriors [Round 24, 2024]

    Not sure why we are raging hot favourites. That Warriors team looks very, very decent on paper.

    Ben

    I do not believe Paulo is a better option. Refer his games in FG this season and have a look at the NSW Cup games/highlights. Lovely bloke but not a FG.

    Nathan Brown

    Sipley also misses a ****load of tackles.......just sayin. I don't think any team would take Sipley over jake.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Stefano on $500k. LOL c'mon. Bulldogs will quote $500k but with 3rd party and endorsements he will be on $800k. Bulldogs = Roosters. AND Stefano has done 1/2 of what Jake has achieved.

    Is a good loss a thing?

    To answer your question, NO. When the whips were cracking early, we were lacking. Some of the turnstile defence was particularly concerning.

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    DCE looks tired and in need of a rest. Most other clubs have the luxury of being able to rest their stars after an origin game. I expect this to be another tough week for DCE with the likes of Crighton running at him all day. This feels like a bridge too far this week vs Chooks. I expect...

    Lawton a gun

    Maturing nicely and looking good on an edge. Ola + Lawton are perfect foils for each other. Wish we were keeping him (as a back rower).

    Has Bullemor improved big time ?

    I always thought Bully was a decent player not getting a lot of minutes. Often the first one dropped which never made a lot of sense given he has some fair weapons including speed. For mine it was the game against the Dragons when we went down to zero subs. Siebold had no choice but to leave...

    TEAM V roosters

    And maybe Faulolo number 14.

    TEAM V roosters

    But you know he will be. I expect Turbo, Talau, Garrick, Burbo, Saab.

    Origin III - The Decider

    DCE played behind a far inferior pack. The scoreline flattered QLD and credit where its due their relentless goal line defence/scrambling was amazing at times. However it told late in the game through fatigue. While not DCE's best game he was constantly targeted in defence. Johns even said...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    While I think we dropped the ball on Humphrey, would have liked to have kept Lawton (but he had a history of injury when Cowboys came knocking so understand our hesitation), think Sam Fainu is one we will regret (but hints at other underlying issues swaying our decision) - I also have seen a lot...

    Jamie Humphreys

    Re Walsh it is bloody hard to find a lot of detail on his league career. I could only find a few appearances off the bench for the Roosters HM side and then it appears he did his knee (I think Smokin Joe referenced this in another post). However given his junior pedigree then benefit of the...

    Club News 2024

    Humphrey's has a decent set of Warwick Farms. He would certainly beat DCE in an arm wrestle. Just sayin!

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Any chance of Tuitavake and/or Fifita back in the maroon and white. Not setting the world on fire at Dragons (according to their fans) so may be good squad additions. I guess it also depends on who their manager is.

    Juniors Discussion Thread

    At conclusion of Australian schoolboy championships this past week he has been named on the bench of the Australian Schoolboy merit team e.g. top 17. Hopefully a very bright future in the maroon and white.
