    The BIGgest defensive flaw

    Very true bob, plus again due to losing the collision, the Manly defenders are still on the ground or getting into position...even offside and out of play, as the dummy half has already taken off and blown up the middle and we know what happens out wide from there....it's just a snowball of...

    The BIGgest defensive flaw

    Getting your defensive line up quickly after the opposition plays the ball, cutting off the momentum stopping them getting any momentum, forcing errors, beating them into submission, also often leading to a poor kick and sets up good field position for us .... Hey wait a sec, your taking the...

    The BIGgest defensive flaw

    Manly have many defensive issues from line speed....allowing crazy momentum and quick play the balls....ridiculous amount of offloads and just simple hand grabs and arm tackles, but I feel the main contribution to all of the above comes from the first and most important / The initial Contact...

    Tom and Jake

    Personally know the T Bros and all are Champions and the Jake you see is what you get. Still feel on a forum it's 100% fair to have opinions based on performances and also missing games ect. Jake is the man, I feel for example that sloppy loss to Tigers by a margin, may easily have been a Manly...

    2026 ( the Nostradamus thread )

    I predict there will be a "good" forward signing, with another "decent" signing Walsh will be in the 17 Garrick will have his last season at Manly There will be some "changes" across the coaching staff - not just Seibold, which is definitely on ice already Think 2026 won't be as bad as some...

    Exactly this - Plus 1 decent forward signing, combined with minimal injuries

    next year's spine

    I'm not 100% sure I would not be considering Walsh for 2026. Yes he is young, but has stepped up in NSW cup and been 1 of few players to look good in a dud team, especially defensively which is where you want a youngster building his game from. There have been many players of the same age taste...

    Get Cleary

    Cleary is still a few grades up on Seibold, but the big thing bringing in a coach with great success like your Bellamy, Cleary and Bennett.....the elite players are far more chance of considering coming also, along with quality juniors who seem to want to play in the winning systems. Always felt...

    DCE 350

    Will he retire ?

    Get Cleary

    More chance of getting Bellamy.....unfortunately will be none of those options, more likely Ennis with an approach for Ballin is the reality moving forward

    Caleb Navale

    So obvious how much energy Navale added instantly....actually would fight to play that ball quickly, whereas these other Manly players "forwards and backs" - especially Garrick, just look at the ref throwing their arms around and looking at the ref, you get a penalty just working hard to play it...

    Team next week

    Not a Big fan of "changing" in desperation....but I am a fan of "changes" to add energy and enthusiasm after such a lacklustre showing. Other NRL sides have had Great success bringing in youngsters, who have excelled and lifted the energy levels of their respective teams. I feel 2 or 3 players...

    Most underwhelming Manly EVER

    I may have seen worse Manly teams on paper, but never seen such uninspired performances.... They look confused almost like a bunch of strangers thrown together and the effort and energy is at an all time low. I will be honest, never understood how Manly started as favourites over Tigers. Waiting...

    November Targets

    Thing was - Weekes got thrown to the Wolves....his debut (well starting at 5/8) his position of choice, they opted to throw him in against the red hot Penrith side and he got destroyed, both physically and mentally.....just poor decisions up stairs and can point the finger at a few, but the...
