Vlandys PNG top 8 on demand 2028 special
Think that there are some conditions or caveats with the 600 mil allocation and not sure of the breakdown on how the funds are going to be distributed but again seemed to be some get out clauses on an Australian federal government 's behalf . Just referencing an Australian government context in...- manly al

Pre-Game Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]
Yeah , i think it would be a better tactic to try and move the Storm "s defence around a bit but still try and maintain a high completion rate . They are basically full strength in the middle and Turbo and Koula could well be a bit of an X factor to trouble them . Need to utilize Lehi a bit...- manly al

Not only notable in the presidential sense in recent times with Trumpie and Biden but looked like the Clinton era as well . Serious corruption and even conspiracy assassination allegations with L B J , [ Johnson ] Regan with the Iran - Contra scandals , Nixon with Watergate and...- manly al

The Kieran Forum
Just D C E "s longer kicking game to consider but Foz 's ability and proven record to so skillfully and effectively direct and manage attacking plays probably on balance , would have given more overall value then whatever D C E has offered over the years . But then again , that bad run Foz...- manly al

Does anyone else find it bonkers that we are 1 win away from 5th?
Just have a sense that Manly could have the Raiders and Dogs measure . Not so much the Storm and Roosters at this stage , Dolphins a bit of an unknown . Still think that Manly will have to win at least two of these next four quite challenging games . Great start if they can somehow lift to...- manly al

Have to take into account also that quite bad run Foz had with injuries when he did part ways with Manly after [ was it ? ] 2015 , Just really pleasing that he was able to however , to have a pretty good run injury wise when he did return for those couple of seasons in 21 - 22 and...- manly al

Pre-Game Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]
Manly 's defence has shown some helpful improvement the past couple of games ,, particularly in the general ruck area . As is generally accepted , not against the better attacking sides going around for the season proper and a bit shaky again when the ball was spread a bit but still on the...- manly al

Trump

Lehi the 1 Turbo centre
Good suggestion but not sure if an N R L club can alter an exiting contract to enable a more club favorable or flexible deal ongoing . Probably only way if there would be some restrictions on a Turbo 1 . 2 mil - 26 contract arrangement to modify, and he would be agreeable to average out on a...- manly al

Lehi the 1 Turbo centre
Being able to attract or sign the fit for purpose , good level key positional players is the other side of the equation and that is not going to be a given . Especially with the two new sides to form up soon Depending how Fogarty or Walsh [ and could include Large ] shape up and keeping...- manly al

Jake T.
Not too sure how long or playing stint at prop that Jake does take on [ or has ] once the likes of Brown and co have been injected into a game at 13 but would be fairly considerable Depending on the interchange circumstances in the future if Jake does just revert to a prop role but would...- manly al

Lehi the 1 Turbo centre
Still some general opinion , well from some N R L commentator perspective and some Manly quarters, that Manly "s best shot in any finals run would require Turbo at close to his best from full back but not sure that it is going to pan out that way. Might to able to keep on gaining more...- manly al

Another typical Many stuff up
Recall Sam Fainu had a couple of good games towards the latter part of 2023 on an edge and think in one game against the Dolphins filled in for a while quite capably as a centre . in normal circumstances , definitely could have been in the keeper category and mid range money and very likely...- manly al

Can understand Trump's determination to try and control and instigate some better border controls , especially with the Rio Grande separation area but may have to pull his head in a bit with the threat to take over New York's affairs if an apparent more radical so called leftest major is elected...- manly al

Another typical Many stuff up
Brooks hasn "t been at his best for quite few games this season but could not really see how Latu would have been an upgrade overall for him . Not a lot of difference contract wise either and Latu has just come out of a quite difficult run with injuries . May have been a case for Latu as a...- manly al

Jake T.
Hard one with Jake , showed on the weekend that he can still provide some really impressive defensive input but even if a bit more enthusiastic taking the ball up , can only expect a few continuing limitations there . Some logic that he should just mainly revert to a prop role but guess that...- manly al
