    Referendum

    So....Mundine would prefer a treaty/treaties to the proposed voice and thinks that a no vote will help things move in that direction. A question for you then: If the referendum was calling for treaty rather than the voice, would you be supporting that? And, if your answer is yes, then why do you...

    Game Day Thread (idea)

    Sounds like a discord server would probably suit. Not sure how Dan would feel about something that took traffic away from the site though

    How to improve ? Positives and Negatives !!

    I'd argue that it's not so much our specific players but our training that's causing the issue. There is no reason for Schuster to still be the size he is, yet here we still are. Likewise, we have plenty of forwards who could easily shed 10-20kg. I think too many of our players just love the gym...

    Egrets, I've had a few...(musings and some pics)

    and on the subject of animals that are cooler than bears... Here's a little someone that I had to remove from my partner's car last week. Don't worry I found them (the spider) a nice new home in the letterbox @:D

    Egrets, I've had a few...(musings and some pics)

    I believe it's a rainbow lorikeet. (also know as a woke or groomer lorikeet, there are debates about if it should be considered a native species....and it's probably not very popular at manly training ;p)

    Are We Fit Enough

    I pretty sure I'll get called out as some sort of Dunning–Kruger know nothing (again)...but as I've decided to make fitness a bit of a hobby in the past few years, I figure I'll chime in anyway with some thoughts and theories. And, I'm not claiming to know the answer, but am just putting forward...

    Team List Tuesdays ... Should be a ripper.

    I imagine the thinking is that there's F all happening in attack. Which is a pretty fair assessment when you look at he number of players standing around either not knowing how to add something or waiting for something to happen. And, throwing Croker there could definitely add some spark. I get...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly v Roosters [Round 18, 2023]

    We have the muscle but lack either the motor or the motivation through the middle. The Roosters forwards really showed up (to back up the junior players) but ours turned to wet cardboard. Something needs to change, either with the way they are training or with how they view the team.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    (IMO) Locks have essentially become the modern day 5/8 (second receiver) with 2 halfbacks (first reciever) managing one side of the field each. And Schuster is far more a 6 than a 7 in a traditional sense. It makes sense, and plenty have already called for the move but, it could still open our...

    The Tartak (Crown Sports) purge

    Yeah, but who else is under Tartak? I'm pretty sure that lines up with those players and if they don't like the line of put up or shut up, then it's a pretty convenient line to hand to the media to claw back control and I wouldn't be at all surprised to hear it from Tartak or Aloiai. For all of...

    The Tartak (Crown Sports) purge

    As good as this would be if true....is anyone else worried about the media sh**storm (& potential legal action) that could hit if we get accused of turfing out players of a certain background?

    Cleanout for 2024

    If there was an attempt at moneyball, it wasn't carried out very well: Billy Beane, the General Manager (GM) of the Oakland Athletics, explaining how to change the team during the regular season, from “Moneyball” by Michael Lewis (page 193-194 if you’re interested): “No matter how successful...

    1995 - 1997 which one?

    Even though 97 was a split comp (with SL) and probably didn't/doesn't count as much as 95 & 96, losing the way we did in the 97 grand final still hurts today. I also wonder if winning it would have prevented our slide into the Northern Eagles days. 97 for me

    Game Day: Storm v Manly [Round 17, 2023]

    My 6 year old came home at 5 and decided that we were all going. Made it into the ground for kick off:) We started solid but the forward rotation took all the wind out of our sails. Its been sunny but cold all day but there was a big but short downpour around 4pm. So the ground is probably more...

    Pre-Game Storm v Manly [Round 17, 2023]

    I got the impression that "virus" was Bellamy's code for; still hungover:yum: I imagine that dce (although he probably deserved to let lose) would likely be more restrained than munster :)

    Pre-Game Storm v Manly [Round 17, 2023]

    I've made it to every Manly game played in Melbourne for the past 10 years. Even before the Turbo loss, I was thinking I'd give this one a miss. But for some reason, I'm starting to think it might be worth the 2 hour drive (each way) to see what happens. Our season is definitely cooked, but...

    SOO INJURY CURSE STRIKES. Tom probably out for season. Is Manly’s NRL season toast?

    Hang in there everyone...especially those of you who haven't reached the acceptance stage yet :p

    Kaeo Weekes

    Kaeo's weight is actually listed as higher than Addo Carr (182cm 90kg vs 183cm 89 kg). But that is still significantly smaller than Tom. Which probably is a good point - if the plan is to play him as a replacement for Tom, then it aint going to work. Either put Garrick back there or switch the...

    As an unwashed, bleeding heart, greeny leftist....I can confidently say that.... ... ... .... Mr Bean is right on the money (and I've been saying the same thing for years :))
