2026 recruitment & retention
Personally could not care if Seibs stays or goes but would expect to see out 26 but pretty cruel injury outcome when all is said and done and in terms of having a more mobile complexion to a forward line up Just for example if the best run on pack was available for the majority of the time -...- manly al

2026 recruitment & retention
Looks like the recruiting grouping are at least trying to bring in young props who have or are showing some promise Don 't think that it was not long ago that Roosters junior prop and one from the Brissy junior comp, not to include Hart have been signed . In addition to the current Manly N S W...- manly al

Maybe every forum has the above and beyond colorful and passionate type characters . Bozo is certainly that and more Most of his posts might belie it but fairly perceptive footy observer when he wishes to be Might overdo some of his set positions and repetitive type themes which of course or...- manly al

Pre-Game Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2025]
Looks like Schoupp "s defence is up to scratch , doesn 't seem to have that much pace attack wise but as you say , solid enough all round competitor and off contract so may just make some extra effort to try to impress- manly al

Pre-Game Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2025]
In an ideal selection situation , Bully would be only a i st choice consideration as a prop but these times are far from ideal and starting the season in any case a bit lacking in edge depth Didn 't really think that Chee Kam would come into calculations and Bully I M O would be as good as...- manly al

Pre-Game Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2025]
Schoupp is an interesting addition , no doubt to cover Chee Kam . Doubt if he would instead start ahead of Chee Kam but maybe not too far into the game Only rationale to start with Chee Kam , looks like still has kept his mobility but surely must have been some serious consideration for Navale...- manly al

Lloyd perrett
Realize just an ambit claim but even a fraction of that amount could be on the dubious side , again taking into account the time lapse since the alleged lack of due diligence or whatever Lloyd wasn "t that bad a pick up , don't think that he was on that much money and can recall a few...- manly al

The Keepers -2025 Edition
Hard one with Jake at continuing at 13 but then not offering a lot of impact value yardage wise as a prop . Yet , a few others of the better rated sides have average go forward props but have sufficient value in other areas . And Jake still one of the most formidable mid field defenders in...- manly al

Irrespective of how credible any case or proposed case may be , 8 years after the supposed lack of duty of care and a 5 mil dollar claim just seems a bit on the sus side- manly al

Sack Seibold Immediately
Losing a bit of faith in Seibs and the general coaching staff ability to get the best out of the side and gelling but still have to take into account the extenuating circumstances with player or key player availability and performance level or consistency for a good part of this season Tent [...- manly al

Pre-Game Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2025]
Not even sure if Croker has been playing N S W cup recently but would think way underdone for i st grade regardless . Dogged competitor for sure and for a few seasons previously but hard to see him coming back anytime soon with his injury issues for a while now- manly al

Pre-Game Raiders V Manly [Round 23, 2025]
Might be inclined to put Bully starting in the 2 nd row with Waddell . T K O and Lodge still starting props , Navavle [ guess that he has been going not too bad in N S W cup recently ] to come on for Jake to revert to prop with Sipps . On the proviso Burbo is ruled out Would like to...- manly al

Post-Game Discussion Manly V Chooks [Round 22, 2025]
Top 8 prospects diminishing by the week but maybe see how D C E goes next game as the 7 But following last week's disappointing outcome , admittedly , hardly deserving a final "s spot for the side in general . Definitely worth giving Walsh a crack at 7 soon if D C E can not improve even...- manly al

Maybe is the time to get Talau into the starting side on an edge or backrow Seems one of the few players in the squad at present capable of some decent go forward or ability to break the line .- manly al

Just can not go with the better sides lately despite being quite competitive for an initial 15 - 20 min period . Deteriorating conditions just seemed to co inside with a total drop off in Manly "s ability to play for the conditions but the lack of direction and mistake rate just so much on the...- manly al

Not being unkind but Aloiai has experienced so many different injuries in his time with Manly , could well be a case for a genuine medical retirement if this shoulder injury is his main and recent concern now . Surely has to be some provision or interpretation when a player has no way of seeing...- manly al

Aloiai Gone
Paseka has been Manly "s best yardage prop , probably for the best part of 4 seasons now Think that he is seriously being missed since he has been out , Can only refer again to the fact that he was in the mix for S O O selection last season , not as a starting prop but in the N S W general...- manly al

Naturally can not judge the coaching ability in the N R L of previously being in charge of a lower grade side and then being considered at i st grade level but had the impression that Balin did not go too well at all coaching the Manly 20 "s a few seasons ago Only issue i might have with Manly...- manly al

Just could not imagine the same level of unforced errors and would be something wrong if the defensive or wrestling coaches can not somehow improve drastically and reducing that shocking high number of off loads against the Dogs Real downer with Haumole out but without his tackle busting...- manly al
