    Pre-Game Knights V Manly [Round 14, 2025]

    Sipley has had about five weeks to look into the mirror, to regret tackling someone whilst unconscious, get over the niggles, and hopefully get a bit fitter. I don't mind him there in the absence of TKO and Aloiai. Rest of the team makes a lot of sense. I think having both Tevaga and Jake off...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Can he play prop? LOL this makes no sense. EDIT: This guy works at the Roar and Neds... Hardly a reliable source. It's about the same as me receiving word that Gifty is coming out of retirement to play wing.

    Burbo

    I don't know how you watch that game on Saturday and come anywhere close to that opinion. Funnily enough, playing players out of position doesn't help them! Ben is a second rower, and Waddell is a middle. That's it.

    Bullemor...-----> bullys more

    Apparently, from what I've heard at least, that plan is changing, with Pappy being the preferred option once again. Last I heard, they were nearing an extension for Pappy, from which they would allow Faalogo to leave. It's a bit of a back and forth, but Pappy is having a fantastic season so...

    The Jazz thread ... all that Jazz

    Water-tight ruck. How long since we've had one of those? I like the idea of combining those two (Jake and Jazz) in defence, but I worry about our yardage game. There's two sides of the ruck, and Cronulla just outran us with Jake and Jazz. I wouldn't mind seeing it again though. Personally I'd...

    Run Koula Run

    Perth could do a lot worse than him at fullback. He has a player option for 2027, and no doubt we'll be up against the Bears to keep him. If they give him the sort of money Hammer was given to play fullback, there's no way we will win. That said, Faalogo looks likely to go to the Bears too...

    Bullemor...-----> bullys more

    If DCE was going to be allowed to be paid $450k under the cap by the NRL, then Jake would likely be $400k. I believe Tom will go down to $700k or $600k max, as he'll likely be moving into the centres in 2027. That means it'll likely be a $1 million+ haircut between the two of them. That gives...

    2025 Rumoured and confirmed signings (NON-DISCUSSION THREAD).

    That's in 2029... Quite a while away. Haas and Carrigan doing this right after being flogged by their old coach is telling.

    Mid-season Report Card

    We are doing about the same as we did last year. However, we have no Paseka, constant injuries, off-field rubbish, and a bit more inconsistency. We didn't have those negative factors last year, which made me more disappointed that we lost three in a row nearly full strength last year. We have...

    Pre-Game Knights V Manly [Round 14, 2025]

    Seibold has already said they're not playing Turbo, and if it was a Sunday night they'd play him. Ponga will be playing injured because AOB is a genius coach. Lodge will be dropped, they only played him for 11 minutes and those minutes were garbage. Probably will be the following: 1. Loppa...

    2025 Rumoured and confirmed signings (NON-DISCUSSION THREAD).

    Bully to be re-signed until 2029

    Clayton Faulalo

    Credit where credit is due - I didn't particularly see much value in him, but he bloody proved me wrong. Great reads in defence, good positioning in attack although a little clunky to begin with, and some amazing skills. One of our best last night. Would love to see him get another contract for...

    Hass goes to market

    Remember this? Well he's open to leave Brisbane, so that's one hurdle down. MANLY ENTER HAAS CHASE AS SEIBOLD OPENS UP ON DCE Superstar Broncos prop Payne Haas has emerged as a potential target for Manly in the wake of Daly Cherry-Evans’ decision to quit the Sea Eagles at season’s end. But...

    Lehi needs a nickname

    Silky. Time just slows down around him. He has a fantastic set of skills, and just nails the plays. Can someone explain grassy? I must be missing something because I don't get that one

    Lehi deserves the 1

    We could not have a better heir to Turbo's throne. They are very similar players in their brilliant silky skills, and powerful builds. If it was between keeping DCE and him, we made the right choice.

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    I just checked because often these stats aren't true - accurate since Saab arrived in 2021. The last game we won without neither, Round 18, 2020 vs Bulldogs. That team was: 1. Funa 2. Albert Hoppa 3. Parker 4. Harper 5. Miski 6. Cust 7. DCE 8. AFB 9. Levi 10. Taupau 11. Gosiewski 12. Sironen...

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    I really hope Faulalo is not marking Selwyn Cobbo... That could be an incoming disaster. Ideally Talau is back on the left. I wouldn't mind seeing Willett or Vaega in first grade over Faulalo. Aside from speed, I'm not exactly sure what Faulalo offers.

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    They can take people on unders, because they actually have had a functional system with a functional coach for a long time, that players want to go to... And they are given leeway in third party agreements outside of the cap to keep Melbourne competitive. Fairly sure you've bumped up both NAS...

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    I don't think he has the cap space. You said he went after Flegler, which is true, but this was prior to the 2023 season where he truly established himself, and before the Dolphins offered him a boat load of money. Remember, hypothetically, we could have say 800k of cap space available...

    Lehi deserves the 1

    Big disagreement here. Hoppa has vastly better line management than Koula. That's an underrated skill that isn't easily observed, but it's not coincidental that we have had 40+ put on us numerous times with Koula at FB. I also think Hoppa has better playmaking instincts, and knows when to chime...
