    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Sharks [Round 27, 2024]

    Agree about the dummy-half situation. Manly will continue to NOT progress whilst it continues to stick with Croker - who is the least effective dummy-half, (which arguably is the most important position within an NRL side), in the competition. I am now of the view he actually holds the team...

    When will Manly accept the fact that Croker is completely inadequate at dummy-half. Lacks speed and any suggestion of evasiveness. Service is also far to predictable. On balance is marked negative for Manly.

    Clayton Faulalo

    Probably has as much physicality as young Hopoate - and he seems to survive OK. If he has sufficient speed he should do OK - as he seems to be a good footballer..

    Post-Game Discussion Bulldogs V Manly [Round 26, 2024]

    Dont agree - he offers nothing in the way of speed, deception and good passing.

    Post-Game Discussion Bulldogs V Manly [Round 26, 2024]

    Of course he is a goer, but in reality he is the least effective dummy-half in the comp.

    MVP: Rd 26 v Bulldogs

    Just imagine how good Manly could be with a top class dummy-half!

    Just a thought - key ingredient missing

    IMO we lack, desperately, an effective dummy-half. Really Croker offers very little - has absolutely no running game (therefore no deception) and his service is mediocre. Chan Tong is promising but at this stage not good enough. But time to stop wasting time with Croker.

    Sure is. His drivel plus the stupid music spoils the occasion.

    Pre-Game Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2024]

    Once again team selected without a backline player on the bench. IMO stupid policy.

    Ben

    But definitely NOT as a centre!

    Post-Game Discussion Roosters V Manly [Round 21, 2024]

    When the team was originally picked I thought that the coach had made some very poor selection decisions - mainly by putting Ben T in the centres when it was obvious that he lacks adequate pace. The better choice would have been to keep Ben and Laughton in the second row - where they had...

    Pre-Game Manly V Broncos [Round 11, 2024]

    Not sure if he is eligible but I would bring in Fulalo to the centres. He looks to have a touch of class and is a try scorer. No doubt he would get a chance if at other clubs e.g. The Dolphins! Keep Ben in the forwards where his defence is needed. Also bring in Harper in the forwards for his...

    Lodge, you Monster

    Thought Lodge went OK and believe he will get better with each game. Sipley looks unfit with restricted lateral movement - obviously not fully recovered from Knee injury. But too many prop type forwards in the pack. Next week I would bring in Harper as an edge forward. At least he will tackle...

    Ben T's centre days are over. Too slow. He is now a forward and has a good future as a forward.

    Thought that Parker had an excellent game. Tackled very effectively throughout the game.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    But he would be a great acquisition for Manly.

    Pre-Game Titans V Manly [Round 7, 2024]

    Parker had an excellent game last week against the Warriors NSW side. He is an experienced player and so should now be able to handle NRL as a 2nd row forward/lock. If necessary Waddell could easily handle front row if necessary.

    Post-Game Discussion Warriors V Manly [Round 6, 2024]

    Paulo is a disaster. Sleep walks, no power, hopeless under high ball. No wonder Easts had him in second grade.
