    Kaeo Weekes

    I don't think anyone is acting like we lost the next Cleary, it's more just a frustration that we've let another of our exciting juniors leave and they've inevitably gone onto improve and play well at another club. All while we make moves that we think will help us contend in the short term yet...

    Kaeo Weekes

    The Raiders are 3 wins ahead of everyone else and have beaten the Warriors twice, Broncos, Dolphins, Roosters, and Melbourne in a game where Weekes scored the try to send it to golden point. Sure he has a mistake or two in him like every young player (see Hoppa last week) but I’d say he’s doing...

    All NRL Games [Round 18, 2025]

    Galvin’s game last night just reminded me of how I’ve always thought of DCE tbh. Pushing passes, trying to score off every play, no composure even with a big lead. That style of play can look good occasionally, but it just doesn’t translate to winning games consistently. We will be...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Kobe sounds like a decent signing if true, hasn't been great this year tbh but would stand out a lot more in our pack of aging plodders than in Brisbane's gun pack. Feels like someone where a change of scenery would only do him some good. Definitely the better option of the Hetherington's as...

    Does anyone else find it bonkers that we are 1 win away from 5th?

    We will find our true position after the bye when we play Storm away, Dogs away, Roosters at home & Raiders away. I'd be surprised if we won any of these games and we'll likely be closer to the bottom 4 than top 8 by the end of it. A lot of people talk about how tight the comp is and how the...

    Should go after Ryley Smith now

    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Tigers [Round 17, 2025]

    One of the few games I’ve missed live at Brooky in recent years but not surprised to hear the crowd seemed a bit flat, this is one of the most uninspiring Manly teams I can remember and that first half was true punish to watch. The captain doesn’t want to be here and isn’t a particularly...

    2 sets of 3 brothers

    Yes the nearly 250-gamer in Brooks outplayed Fainu playing 80 minutes in the NRL for the first time of his career and without Luai. Was nice to actually notice Brooks out there for the first time in a while but I’m struggling to take it as a positive when this was a recruitment move aimed at...

    Tallyn Da Silva

    Given we are coming off a game where our starting hooker played 80 minutes and did not take a single run the whole time.. going after Da Silva is a no brainer. Would be worth the $$$ given he’d be filling a hole we’ve had for 5 years

    Manly In Crisis 2025 edition

    Sipley and Waddell joining Saab and Croker in NSW Cup this weekend. Was initially excited especially to see Waddell's name, but realised it has no bearing on our team list for next week and any or all of them could be straight back in first grade after the bye.

    Manly In Crisis 2025 edition

    As I said I certainly wouldn't be calling them easy wins. Just on paper they are games we should win and I suspect that if we don't then Mestrov would no longer have a choice.

    Manly In Crisis 2025 edition

    I wonder if this has all been timed given we are on the bye and are likely to win our next two matches anyway. Both at home against 2 teams that have a combined one win from their last 8, with that one win being Souths beating Tigers. Although we've lost to the only 3 teams below them in the...

    We are Laughing stock of the NRL

    So you are saying Seibold didn't get the spoon because he actually had the Broncos in 15th place and then quit before getting sacked? And the bloke that replaced him for the last 7 games is the same one Seibold brought to the club as a Recruitment Manager and is now our Head of Football and...

    Storm make BIG 4 work - we don't

    Their recruitment is on another level to ours (and the rest of the competition). All the players they've signed in recent years to build around their spine have been young guys with potential who for one reason or another were on the outer at their previous club. Katoa (now one of the best...

    The Positive Thread

    The Dollar Chaser having less than 10 games left for the club is by far the biggest positive. Good ****ing riddance

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    Talau has been fantastic. I hate this team but can respect a guy having a dig and constantly making good runs while everyone else is ****ting the bed.

    Wooden Spoon

    I hope people are ready for us to break a 78 year drought because it’s looking like a genuine possibility now. Losses to the bottom 3 teams in the Titans, Knights and Eels in the last four weeks, and only 2 points clear of last place now. Lost our best player for potentially the year in...

    Game Day: Titans V Manly [Round 15, 2025]

    I’m sorry but if this is what Tom is now he shouldn’t even be in the 17 at all, even if he is ‘fit’ to play. Lehi, Koula and Garrick are all better options at the back. Seibold has a lot to answer for too but careful criticising him as it may be considered spam

    Our hooker for 2026

    It is absolutely time to move on from Croker, the bloke is approaching 30, has had all sorts of issues with concussion and knee/neck injuries, and was never a hooker to begin with. He plays tough and is a great clubman, but if anyone is genuinely fine with him still being the starting hooker...

    If we can’t beat this GC team next week Seibold should not be on the plane home
