    New coach Poll

    One of the problems I see with Manly's appointment of Seibold is he's clearly not interested in building something. He went all in on the Trbo's and DCE to win him a premiership. Now the Trbo's are broken and DCE has flown the coup and we're left with nothing.

    I don’t agree but each to their own.

    All NRL Games [Round 15, 2025]

    I actually think it’s common sense to award the Roosters that try. If you slow something down enough, you can find separation in almost every grounding. I’m with Andrew Johns. Replay at full speed and unless you see a knock on, award the try.

    Foketi, a 10 game rookie for the Chooks, offers more than anyone else in our pack. Amazing athlete.

    New coach Poll

    It’s been said so many times on these boards, but we have a wooden spoon quality pack of forwards. Unfortunately, a number of them were recruited by Seibs. He may or may not be able to coach. He sure as hell can’t recruit though. I hated the Woods signing. I hated the Brown signing. I hated the...

    New coach Poll

    Tooves was sacked because he aligned himself with the Quantum side of the board. When they were paid out, Penn went about removing those in opposition. Hasler and Penn have hated each other for years. They put their difference aside for as long as possible, but ultimately couldn’t ride it out...

    Jason Saab

    Saab is the biggest gumby in the NRL. Soft hit ups. Drop balls. No game awareness. Laddish attitude. Occasionally catches a bomb or a torches a slow winger with some speed. I'd send him packing if I were Manly. The end.

    New coach Poll

    I think there is zero chance that Seibs is about to get the sack. It's rock bottom for Manly fans but it's not rock bottom by comparison with what it usually takes for a coach to be punted in the NRL. Still, if I had to choose, I'd take Holbrook. I thought he did well with the Titans and was...

    Tom Turbo .. interesting if true

    I’d love to know how he can go from looking big, strong, and fast for Australia 6 months ago, to now slow and incapable of making a tackle break. He’s had an MCL and a cork injury; surely they don’t suddenly render a player completely incapacitated. It’s a remarkable collapse in a very short...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    It will be hilarious if no one wants him anymore…or at least no one wants him for 750k +. He was very smug in the way he communicated his intentions with veiled swipes at Manly. It was cocky. If he ends up having to take 500k to play for the Titans, it will be very funny.

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    The Fogarty signing would have given it away…or if he kept the club in the dark, the Fogarty signing wouldn’t happen at all. His decision to leave in the first place, blew up the season. His decision to announce it via 9, was disrespectful.

    The Trbojevic era is over

    I totally agree. It was obvious the game plan was to shift the ball wide and Newcastle came alive the week before with the same strategy in the 2nd half. The only way to stop those shifts from being effective is with line speed in the middle (to shut the play down before it gets to the edge) and...

    Sack Seibold Immediately

    Yeah but if you read the thread, people were suggesting Ennis could be the next head coach, hence my post.

    Sack Seibold Immediately

    Mick Ennis was asked at halftime what was wrong with Manly's defence and he couldn't string a sentence together. You could tell he didn't really know or understand the problem but also had to conceive of an answer and he couldn't come up with one. He's not a head coach. It was clear that our...

    Aloiai Gone

    It’s been a pretty bloody ordinary contribution from Oshay to be honest. His first season was peppered with ill discipline; be it suspensions or dumb penalties. Then he sorted his discipline out and started getting injuries. Then he played chief agitator in the Pride saga, then went on a stretch...

    Our hooker for 2026

    I think the fact the Dogs are moving on from Mahoney speaks volumes. That he was once their captain adds another layer of subtext. That they’re on top of the table and flying adds a third. That Gus keeps the players he really wants, adds a fourth. We keep hearing it’s cap related, but he’s only...

    Passion for the club

    I respect people’s take on things but I don’t feel it’s that dire. I think we are just frustrated with the way Manly tease supporters with occasional big wins against decent opposition, only to turn around and lose to the cellar dwellers the next. The place doesn’t need to be blown up. The...

    Seibold Spam

    I agree we don’t need the spam, we get message, but…I don’t really agree with the notion that Seibs and Tony are playing the ‘long game’. I think Seibold is petrified of too much youth after his Brisbane debacle and outside of Hoppa (a generational talent) hasn’t really turned to rookies with a...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    I hated him for a couple of weeks but more because I felt betrayed by a player I have always defended in arguments with opposition supporters and someone I felt was a 'clubman'. I've come to terms with it now and like you, just feel disappointed. I'm not at the point where I'd be happy to see...
