    No Room for DCE or Jake in Aussie squad

    Funny, in club land its easier and cheaper to punt the coach than 30 players. In rep footy, the players have been given the punt and the coach is kept on.

    No Room for DCE or Jake in Aussie squad

    At least Snake put Manly first. Just one game for the Kangaroos in 2007. To be fair, Tom T has only played 4 games for the Kangaroos.

    The game has moved on from me and a lot of people from my generation

    The Penrith ruck manipulators got over the top of the referee and the Storm ruck manipulators, which given how good the Storm ruck manipulators were, is sure saying something. Yes yes Penrith are the best team ever apparently. So great they couldn't score their opening try until they got to...

    Team of 2008 was one of the best!

    Happy 40-nil Day! 5 October 2008. Radio 2GB game call. Beaver's try.

    DCE Leads Dally M after 18 Rounds

    Judges favour the star players and most likely they are right anyway about who were the best players in the game. If manly win the points are going to DCE and/or Turbo. Full stop. Same reason Greg Alexander won the Dally M one year as there were so few other stars in that Penrith team.

    2024 GRAND FINAL

    It's now Wed night and excitement is exploding like an untied party balloon. Doubt this grand final will sell out without cut price assistance or freebies.

    Pre-Game Chooks V Manly [Finals Week 2, 2024]

    Roosters will 120% try to do the fast start that Storm and Penrith did last week. These teams all try to win the game in the first 20 minutes with a knockout. They all think they are Mike Tyson. Survive the 20 minutes blitz and fight it out over 80 minutes. Manly needs to go the distance...

    Pre-Game Chooks V Manly [Finals Week 2, 2024]

    Last week Manly went into camp for a few nights & had a run on the ground at Homebush a day or two before the game. They said it really helped. Wonder if doing same with the SFS game.

    Pre-Game Chooks V Manly [Finals Week 2, 2024]

    Despite lots of adverts & graphics this week showing Manly in maroon vs Roosters in blue, Manly will be in away kit.

    6 day turnaround

    And now NRL has decided Storm vs Manly/Easts will also be 6 days after this Saturday night's game. Manly will have to go into 1978 mode. The grand final replay was Manly's sixth game in 24 days.

    Pre-Game Chooks V Manly [Finals Week 2, 2024]

    NRL better let Manly play in maroon jersey. Looked spectacular today. There's no need to put Manly in the white away jersey.

    2024 FINALS: [All Games: Week 1]

    Sharks admit defeat, saying can't get a decent crowd to SFS for semi vs Cows. NRL should move the game to Townsville or Brisbane or Auckland.

    2024 FINALS: [All Games: Week 1]

    Just my opinion. Pretty clear the referees are prepared to let Panfas and Storm have their own way at the ruck. When they bring speed to play the ball and/or walk off the mark, most of the time the refs seems to get excited by the speed and react to it by giving six agains and penalties...

    2024 FINALS: [All Games: Week 1]

    Sharks drop kickoff. As usual, the team that lifted when it played Manly, returns to being run of the mill rabble the next week.

    Pre-Game Bulldogs V Manly [Finals Week 1, 2024]

    I got a feeling Dogs backline will be changed late in the hope of shoring it up defensively. Skelton was picked out by Manly attack a fortnight ago and the other winger Kiraz got injured vs Cows. Maybe return of Taaffe at fullback and Tracey to wing.
