    Croker should be 13; keep him in there for defence and leave the ball playing to Schuster and Lawton/Gordon

    Other Games [Round 11, 2023]

    I think the non penalty try Melbourne should have got for the Walsh shoulder charge on Olam was more crucial. It was a 12 point turnaround as Brisbane got their penalty try straight after.

    Pre-Game Manly v Sharks [Round 11, 2023]

    Souths have been doing that against top 4 teams for several seasons. We only do it on the odd occasion except for Turbo’s breakout year.

    Pre-Game Manly v Sharks [Round 11, 2023]

    The thing is we have 2 first grade coaches yet we look even worse than last year. Compare us to the way Souths play in attack and defence and we seem light years from a premiership.

    Lock for the rest of 2023 and beyond

    Croker has no idea in attack at dummy half let alone putting him at 5/8; he is a gutsy player but is one of the reasons we struggle in attack. Would rather blood Fainu if it came to it, but only if Schuster doesn’t come good.

    Tommy Talau

    Harper was one of our better players today; Parker is more of a liability, and Woods and Keppie should both be in reserve grade. Croker is great in defence but does nothing in attack. API showed what we have been missing in a 9.

    Pre-Game Souths v Manly [Round 4, 2023]

    Not sure about a reasonable game, as he butchered an easy try in the corner by not using his right arm, therefore keeping Gutherson away from his put down. Also dropped a bomb late which kept Parra in it till the end. If the jamming is coached then that’s another issue, bit otherwise that side...

    Game Day: Manly v Bulldogs [Round 1, 2023]

    What’s the point of having Koula at right centre when all we do is go left

    Trials team/squad announced - Sipley what's doing??

    Feledy has been included by the Tigers on the bench, so if he impresses, they may be looking to fast track him into first grade. Pity we didn’t take that opportunity.

    The Samuela Fainu thread ..

    I thought Feledy showed just as much promise as Latu and was deserving of a similar contract as a potential star of the future. It’s not like we’ve made any big name signings to take up our cap, and seem to have spent money on less deserving current and ex-players. Feledy has a touch of class...

    Also read Seibold putting a lot of emphasis in Union regarding catching and defending high kick’s which would be a big plus for Manly.

    Annesley's weakly "Why this happened" report - 2022

    The question is will Atkins have more influence on the result by being in the bunker, given Sutton disallowed 2 of Penriths tries that should have been awarded.

    Finals week 3 ( 2022)

    I think Penrith win also, but it won’t be 40-0. The NRL will want the Parra fairytale. Imagine if Atkins is appointed as the ref?

    Finals [Week 1, 2022]

    Happy to see Canberra win but u shouldn’t be able to score a try of a falcon that goes forward and then you fall on it.

    Other Games [Round 22, 2022]

    Contrast the way Souths play to our team; lose their halfback late and put in a rookie and don’t miss a beat. Their depth is outstanding and if Mitchell stays fit can win the comp. I thought they would struggle when Bennett and Reynolds left, but it just shows how much we need to improve to...

    How to stop this terrible 10 minute patch

    Having watched the replay today, I think too much has been made of the last 10 minutes; we were up by 10 with a minute to go so were never going to lose. Also the ref and bunker intervened to give Melbourne a chance. I know Schuster was in front of the kicker, but no advantage from a long kick...

    [Resurrected] Turbo injury,healt..wait..injury - updates

    Why can’t he play centre, but have the same roving role he has for NSW? Was still devastating and won Man of the series.

    Under 19's mens State of Origin

    The reality is the NRL wants Melbourne to succeed to maximise broadcast revenue. Otherwise, why would you put up with a club which has introduced every cheating method possible in its’ short history to be successful. Even when they were “punished” for the salary cap scandal, they were still...

    Thoughts from Cowboys match

    I just watched the replay of the match and aside from the DCE stuff up which ended up costing us the game, I thought he had one of his better games. Manly was by far the better team overall, and if the bunker did their job, there would never have been a grandstand finish. How do you get the...
