    Post-Game Discussion Tigers V Manly [Round 24, 2025]

    I live in Norton St. Unlike the utter travesty at Leichhardt last year, Tigers deserved winners. We need Matty Ballin as head coach next year (*we have ‘never’ won a comp coached by people who have not played for the club). Also, disregarding 1995 and the NRL sanctioned robbery in 2013, we have...

    Game Day: Bulldogs V Manly [Round 21, 2025]

    I would go with the Manly that beat them x2 in a row away last year. But I think the Dogs have been a different beast this year (although perhaps fortunate last week)

    Pre-Game Bulldogs V Manly [Round 21, 2025]

    Surely Eddie Ward’s performance will go down in infamy as the very worst. We know, from 2013, how incorrect and possession changing decisions kill momentum. In 2013 there was one forward pass howler - and myriad wrong calls. In 1995 there were 2 forward pass tries to Dogs and a 7 tackle try (and...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    Knights have won 3 out of last 4 games against us in Newcastle so that will be a test of how we are really travelling.

    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Broncos [Round 13, 2025]

    What a night! This is how we do it. And without Turbo. And cough better discipline. One ruck infringement.

    Can’t believe we’re 6th

    Playing the Broncos drumroll at home. If that doesn’t motivate them… it’s been 11 long years.

    Post-Game Discussion Cowboys V Manly [Round 11, 2025]

    Three winnable games coming up. And playing the Broncos at Brookvale in a couple of weeks. Very impressed with Burbo last night. He really put in. And with the amazing Tommy Emmanuel who I saw last night in Newcastle after the game. There really are no superlatives fitting to describe what I saw.

    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Cowboys [Round 1, 2025]

    We fell off a couple in the last 8 or so minutes, and Chez too. Their last was particularly egregious. But round one etc etc. I think our attack is really our best defence - but we did defend well for 72 odd minutes. And Scott Drinkwater is class. I hope Ola being the first scorer for 2025 is a...

    Trial V Wabbits

    I still can’t forgive him for the Sin Bin farce/stitch up at Leichhardt last year.

    DCE to announce retierment

    I had hoped he would stick around till 2026. That’s when the premiership window probably closes for this decade I think (ending our proud record of at least one per decade if it closes). And, of course, robbed in 2013.

    Post-Game Discussion Bulldogs V Manly [Finals Week 1, 2024]

    Just like Josh ‘Grub’ Reynolds. I will always remember his milking a penalty by putting himself in a dangerous position to win in 2013.

    Post-Game Discussion Tigers V Manly [Round 25, 2024]

    I did leave early and the comeback started. Should have left 5 minutes earlier!

    Post-Game Discussion Tigers V Manly [Round 25, 2024]

    And when the Tigers put on a clear high shot, penalty only, no report and no bin. This is twice now in the space of a month where I have gone to games (Roosters - also got flu from packed into light rail) and the ref has played a big part in the outcome.

    Post-Game Discussion Tigers V Manly [Round 25, 2024]

    At the game (I live in Norton St). Also back home by the end. I was bemused by Bullemor bin. Got straight up from tackle. And Ola’s bin (no head involved). Just like 2013 GF, the refereeing killed momentum and hope and the players generally didn't rise above it. It was like something scripted in...

    Post-Game Discussion Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2024]

    Brooks kick on for our first try was sublime. He’s such a smart footballer. Had a great game.

    Post-Game Discussion Roosters V Manly [Round 21, 2024]

    Just the reminder of a decent centre pairing complementing each other Eagle1. As a child (70s) John Gibbs was my favourite player. I grew up in Wollongong but Steve Matai is probably my favourite player of that time. And so modest as well. Thanks for the welcome!

    Is a good loss a thing?

    I remember being in Melbourne in 2013 at the game for the 10-10 extra time draw (not a loss, not a win but never gave up). Last night like that.

    Post-Game Discussion Roosters V Manly [Round 21, 2024]

    Can’t wait for Croker to return (Michael Crocker was the dog shot not even penalised on Brett Stewart in the 2007 GF).

    Post-Game Discussion Roosters V Manly [Round 21, 2024]

    We all know the rank injustice of 2013 but I think that was end of an era that began in 2003 with 3 years in the ‘merger’ wilderness and a core group. Since the 70s (and with the exception of that decade), we have one comp per decade - albeit coached by ex-players (can Seibold break new...

    Post-Game Discussion Roosters V Manly [Round 21, 2024]

    Bully reminds me a lot of Jamie Buhrer - he’s really come on this season. I thought Brooks had a good game too, and he can defend.
