    The Daly Cherrygraph

    I still think Cherry cares too much about his image and "brand" to go out like this mid-season, so I can't see it happening. But if it does, first - wow. And second, I'm fine with it. If he doesn't want to be here, what's the point of keeping him?

    Thank you for your service. Sounds promising, too!

    Pre-Game Cowboys V Manly [Round 11, 2025]

    Purdue played all his junior footy as a half, and has been killing it in the centres, a position he had never previously played. He is very quick off the mark and will likely cause plenty of problems in the middle of the field. Dearden never gives up. And on top of that, Drinkwater plays pretty...

    Pre-Game Cowboys V Manly [Round 11, 2025]

    I fear the Cowboys will be looking to pay us back for that Round 1 humiliation at Brookvale, and that no amount of @Wombat64's premium lube will save our collective perineum by the full-time siren.

    Tommy Talau

    I like Talau and what he did for us last year, but how many players who struggle to make it onto the field do we really need?

    No end in sight

    Couldn't I agree more. I said at the time that he was the one we could build a dominant forward pack around, and if he had stuck around, with players like Haumole coming through and a bit more luck, we could have been a very different team. To me, he was the key. Not DCE, not even Turbo. But he...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Seems to be two camps in the rugby league media at the moment: those who attempt to maintain the fiction that Cherry wasn't signed, sealed and delivered to the Roosters before he made his fateful announcement, and those who are willing to give nudge-nudge wink-wink recognition to the fact that...

    MVP: Rd 10 v Sharks

    He was definitely the Trbo-o-Bowl Winner from yesterday's game: 3. Burbo. 2. Turbo. 1. Jurbo.

    Young Forwards - Do we have any?

    He'd still do a better job than most of our starting forwards.

    Seibold presser ..

    Yeah, that infuriated me at the time and still infuriates me now. I remain on the fence about Seibold. Basically, I think our senior playing group is full of habitual losers. Some of them are great players, some of them are great blokes, but they are used to losing and are way too ready to...

    Seibold presser ..

    At least he didn't say he was proud and start making excuses. Said the errors killed us, not just at 14-all but all through the game. Said we weren't good enough, which is true. But he doesn't look like a man who is confident he has any answers. Instead, he looks like a coach who thinks his...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Sharks [Round 10, 2025]

    I was surprised when people started looking ahead to the Cowboys game, as if we'd already won this game simply because we were playing at home. Cronulla were awful in Perth and we couldn't beat them there. The chances of them playing any worse and us playing any better were never high. Players...

    No Heart

    Yeah, that wasn't good. Neither was Garrick gifting them a try. Or any number of passes Haumole threw that led to turnovers in possession (like the one before the Garrick fumble). But tempted as I am to blame one play or one player, really, it was all of them. As a team, we were woeful and...

    MVP: Rd 10 v Sharks

    Another one of those games where if the players can't be arsed, neither can I.

    Game Day: Manly V Sharks [Round 10, 2025]

    The problem being, we are pretty much all soft underbelly. Once that's gone, what's left?

    Game Day: Manly V Sharks [Round 10, 2025]

    Not the good one, apparently. It's like watching the Dragons game all over again. Haumole is taking the worst possible options he can think of, Cherry is giving the ball away and watching frontrowers stroll over for tries. Getting killed all over the park.

    Not sure I've ever seen a winger who adds so much value to his team. Even underdone against the Cowboys he was incredible.

    All NRL Games [Round 10, 2025]

    Oh, yeah - they've definitely struggled on the field (Dessie bites everyone on his way out), but they've never struggled for money. They're just using it way more effectively now:-)

    All NRL Games [Round 10, 2025]

    Yes, I know who Gus Gould is, and I respect his experience and intelligence. He's doing an excellent job. But you can't tell me that Kikau, Burton, Reed Mahoney and Chricton are not on serious coin, or that you're still not paying part of Addo-Carr's oversized bill. Tupouniua isn't on minimum...

    All NRL Games [Round 10, 2025]

    Not a huge fan of some of the niggle in his game, but no doubt he is an amazing player. Really lifts everyone around him, and I guess the on-field demeanour is part of that. But you don't have to look too far back to rediscover some hate for the Bulldogs. Think about Todd Greenberg luring...
