The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)
He was exclusively a 6 for us but rep selectors were smart and picked him on an edge because they could see what was best for Josh. I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a big bust up and he ends up somewhere else. He’s not a ‘Des’ player and certainly not a Des 6. No one or nothing can force...- Snake

Overreaction
Great post... The only thing that should be keeping any of us up at night, is the injuries to Aloiai and potentially, Haumole. This loss was clearly a byproduct of COVID/bogey team.- Snake

The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)
In defence of Schu, there was a great deal of debate between development coaches many years ago about his move to 6 in Manly’s SG Ball side. Was it the best thing for his development? Long term (as in FG), would his best position be 6? The idea was that playing him in the halves and allowing his...- Snake

The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)
I agree and can see him coming good at some point. However, if he were fit and had a better attitude about doing the 1%ers, I think he wouldn’t be struggling so much. I know I’m repeating myself but concessions can be made for his footy, but not for his weight. If he was fit, I think the noise...- Snake

Yep. It was clear the impact of missing our most important defenders. We’ve been on a good run.- Snake

Post-Game Discussion Dragons v Manly [Round 19, 2022]
Apart from leaking the last try, I was pretty proud of the side tonight. I thought they dug in under serious adversity. Keppie lasted 20 minutes, Haumole was on one leg, and we finished with one forward on the bench. Add to that the players we’d already lost before kick off...Dragons should have...- Snake

Post-Game Discussion Dragons v Manly [Round 19, 2022]
As far as the performance goes, it still comes down to the players we had out so not sure why people are furious. We had no fluency in attack because we had no dummy half passing game and no link man in the middle....our second link man played dummy half and everyone was gassed from having one...- Snake

Post-Game Discussion Dragons v Manly [Round 19, 2022]
That’s all I’m upset about...the loss was expected but to have Haumole and Aloiai unfit as a result, is disappointing.- Snake

Game Day: Dragons v Manly [Round 19, 2022]
I have grave concerns about tonight. I was worried when Jake went down and then Croker sent me into a complete spin. Regardless of which team takes the field tonight, in any combination, it will not have the two most critical pieces to the ruck puzzle. Tonight is not solely about whether a...- Snake

3 out with covid and counting…..
You can and it gets evaluated on a case by case basis. However, we’d have to get this ‘Chee Kum’ a registered NRL contract within 24 hours and I’m not even certain he exists. He’d also count towards our 30 man squad, so it’s a huge gamble on a player the club has never heard of.- Snake

Who the **** is Chee Kum? Chee Kam plays for Souths and Chan Kum Tong wasn’t named in the initial squad so couldn’t come in for Frog anyway?! You sure you follow Manly?- Snake

True. I’ll be really upset if we lose to the worst forward pack in the NRL.- Snake

Pre-Game Dragons v Manly [Round 19, 2022]
The hoodoo is Wollongong, not Kogarah. We’ve barely played there in the last 20 years and won two of the last four there. Wins in 2013 and 2014 and then didn’t play there for 5 years before losing in 2020. It’s not going to be easy regardless, but we’ve done ok there in the past.- Snake

Tom Wright
I don’t wanna be a jerk but I seriously think the love in for Tom Wright is one of the most ridiculous things that pops up on this forum. The guy was a complete non-event and we don’t even need him now anyway. Who gives a **** what he is doing in rugby or what Barrett did or didn’t do...anyone...- Snake

Agree, which is why Wright won’t excel at NRL level, because he is only an offensive player. Don’t tell me all about his Rugby exploits...rugby? Bhahahaha- Snake

The race for the top 8.
I hate to say it but I have feeling the Bunnies are going to go deep into the finals. Mitchell and Walker are finding form and they can win most games off the back of their left edge attack. They don’t have the defence to win the comp but they just seem to find ways to win games by out scoring...- Snake

You just keep watching one half of what makes a competent footballer and ignore the rest...then you can kick back and ask yourself why our great club doesn’t ‘soar’ as you say it should.- Snake

If only RL was limited to speed and skill, you would be the best talent scout in the game. Unfortunately turnstiles are only relevant at the entry ways of 90s era supermarkets. You haven’t figured that out yet.- Snake

Tom Wright
The problem with a guy like Tom Wright is the all the stuff that the average punter doesn’t see...he is a highlight reel footballer but coaches (even the bad ones like Barrett) see everything, not just the highlights. Wright was an absolute turn style. Imagine him defending the line in a semi...- Snake
