    Sack Seibold Immediately

    Seems to be some idea floating around that Siebold will cede his job to Ennis and take on some overseer role as head of the football department ala Phil Gould. So let me get this right - we are going to appoint : a guy who got a previously impossible spoon for the Broncos ;then in his next...

    Game Day: Manly V Chooks [Round 22, 2025]

    No doubt the usual defenders of this rabble will be out again after this capitulation , dreaming up mathematical possibilities of making the 8 and throwing around injury excuses .... but enough is enough. Simply the majority of these players need to go and take the coach with them. This is...

    Game Day: Manly V Chooks [Round 22, 2025]

    An ordinary team going nowhere. **** forwards ,Captain doesn't care. Long long way back to being a contender. Almost the entire forward roster are not only ordinary and aging , they are just the wrong type of bodies for modern footy ... and the blame for that decision firmly lies with the coach.

    Game Day: Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]

    DO NOT MOVE TOM FROM CENTRE I love the way we are going to Koulas side and not just defaulting to Tom's side. So much more confusing for defences with a roving Tom than just tracking Tom at 1. And Garrick is a winger.

    Game Day: Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]

    Best half in a long time -execution , effort and tactics. Love the way they are playing those inside balls in the middle, sucking them in and beating them on the edges easily. Brooks perfect tonight Keep it up and it's two points and a springboard for the next three weeks run. Geez there is...

    Pre-Game Storm V Manly [Round 20, 2025]

    Glad they didn't risk Haumole in a game we are no chance. He needs to be fit and firing for us to be any chance at all of squeezing into the 8. Storm by plenty via slaughtering our weak backrow/ centre defensive combinations on both sides. Fear this may be worse than the home game against the...

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    Get most of your points but this “ injury crisis” stuff is a red herring Ola had missed the last two games ( which we ironically won) so not sure why he is on list Paseka was a big loss as , despite his limitations , he is clearly our best prop. Aloia is a decent player but has been a...

    All NRL Games [Round 18, 2025]

    I can deal with Latu leaving as we have some good options but letting go Samuela and having to watch Burbot and the Duck run inside out flower pot lines at left second row brings a grown man to his knees.

    Game Day: Manly V Souths [Round 18, 2025]

    Tom to confirm the decision to play him centre is the right one today against a makeshift backline This is the long term future Not sure it will be enough to overcome our poor pack though - SKO and Bully will be carrying a lot of weight to make up for the others Manly by 4

    Burbo

    He is average at best and indicative of what we have come to accept as good enough. Would not make any top 8 side starting 13. Similar to Croker - “ trying hard” is good enough.

    Paul Bryan

    Also shows a lot of confidence from the kid taking a chance and rejecting an offer. Lord knows we need some confidence and steel in our pack.Too many choir boys.

    Tallyn Da Silva

    If Croker gets picked again as starting 9 over Simpkins then any doubts about Siebold being a fool will be gone. And he is worse as a 14 as offers zero in terms of impact. Don’t think Simpkins is the absolute answer either but at least he is a hooker and he shows improvement. Tuesday will tell...

    Tallyn Da Silva

    Can we all just agree Croker is not the answer ? How much evidence is needed. He’s not good enough and is getting bashed every week. If he’s in our plans then we have the wrong plan. The fact we are chasing the Tiger kid suggests they have finally realized the obvious, 5 years too late.

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

    Why does Brooks always use Burbot and rarely Koula. Burbot either runs that predictable slow outside in line or crabs sideways to cramp the outside backs / fullback.Plus he just has zero intimidation. It’s like having a Ferrari in the shed and using the Datsun. It is f..ing ridiculous and must...

    Jake Simpkin signed until 2026

    Outside of the errors I’d encourage people to take a closer look at the width and speed of his passing game tonight and compare it to Croker’s. It’s chalk and cheese. I cannot understand Siebolds obsession with Croker especially with Simpkins showing obvious signs of improvement. Croker is slow...

    Jake Simpkin signed until 2026

    Writing Da Silva off after one ordinary game with half the spine out is ridiculous. Outside a couple of communication mixups which is understandable given the halves he had, look at his passing from dummy half. It’s crisp and has a lot of width. Having him , Simkins and with Large in the wings...

    Game Day: Manly V Tigers [Round 17, 2025]

    I’d suggest there are a few other rounds screaming “what about me”in that regard.

    Game Day: Manly V Tigers [Round 17, 2025]

    Jerome out I think we win despite the weak pack. Think Tommy to 4 will be a game changer in future for us. Won’t beat the contenders but might get us the two points v Tigers/ Dragons/ Dolphins Then again we could get slaughtered
