    Boo hooing DCE is not the way forward

    To Boo DCE starting this Sunday is not the way to go....in fact I reckon Eels fans will enjoy it, but I have high doubts the other Manly players will appreciate it. Still wearing the Seaeagles emblem, he is still part of Manly in 2025 and "IF" he is in opposition colours in 2026, that's the time...

    What a Hoppatunity !!

    The Turbo is out and we need some hero's to stand up Sunday, enter Lehi Hopoate ....... As always the engine room is the place this starts and ends....but the importance of the 1 in the modern game is a match breaker more than ever. The young man in the Hot seat has all the skills to get it done...

    The ruck interpretation kills us

    I see Manly lose on both sides of the coin in recent seasons In attack, opposition like NZ tonight, seem to get away with holding us down. I feel every supporter can claim this at times, but when it happens to Manly, it continues all game and there are errors and pushed plays in the back of it...

    Frustrating game lacking resilience

    Firstly Manly were expecting to just rock up and "outscore" NZ Well to play the flash you need to Win the bash Manly didn't handle the physical exchanges and the latitude given to the NZ defence, where the champion teams take on the bad calls and get pi""ed off, showing the resilience to simply...

    > Siosiua Taukeiaho <

    Big bloke played unreal Ran with vigour but smarts looking for offloads, which is 100 % what Manly need to go next level....you don't break down Penrith, Storm without 2nd phase play Felt he was exceptional last night and deserves some recognition

    It's a "Big year" or "Bust" for Aloiai !!

    Every now and then Aloiai comes up with a strong game....even a couple in a row. But I'm gunna call it straight up, has been very disappointed with majority of his time at Manly. He had that enforcer type of image based on some tough rugged games for the battling Tigers and seemed a likely...

    Brailey on outer at Newcastle

    I doubt we are still searching for a 9, but Brailey is a reasonably good quality all round dummy half with great service Whispers growing Kinights are keen to see him look elsewhere Couple of Manly things- already have a few vying for this role now so depth seems ok, but not at that standard...

    Is the comp more even in 2025

    Have seen in recent years aside from Penrith dominating, that by mid season it gets pretty obvious which 2 - 4 teams will fight it out ..... mainly Penrith who have dominated and though will no doubt again be in the mix, personally feel they may do it tougher than many pundits predicting they...

    I see Top 4 and expect it

    This side not only has potential, but key players everywhere This is gunna be a great season and I'm not usually game to come on here and claim it if not Brace yourself for nothing less than a Top 4 finish From Finals..... it's anyone's But I reckon we are starting in a great position 💯 🙌

    Oka Leadership role a great move

    Big Oka has been easily our Best forward the past 2 years and now is rewarded with a Vice Captaincy role. For a bloke who has come so far I feel it's a great reward and a worthy decision also. His powerful impact on every game offers X factor also and this added responsabilty does not so much...

    Most 'Important" position in modern NRL

    The game has changed vastly to the point Star fullbacks command Monster $$$ as are involved far more than chiming into the backline, kick returns and last line of defence as now ball play and more involved ....heck your wingers are now the biggest inflences on momentum at times and used to be...

    Hoppa "MUST" be in the 17

    Watching over a few 2024 games and Hoppa in his debut season was nothing short of outstanding. Has every quality to be the Best Hopoate to put on a Manly jersey and I realise he is still young and has time to grow.....but I really feel he has to find a position in the 17, it's a hard juggle from...

    Can Taukeiaho & Tevaga add that "Brown" impact ?

    The off season signings of the 2 experienced forwards Taukeiaho and Jazz Tevaga had had mixed reviews. Can these players add what Brown gave Manly in 2024 with that impact off the bench, in fact will they even make the top 17 ? I believe they have been signed to play significant roles...

    We were blessed at centre

    Watching some old games Mick O'Connor What a freak He joins us 1987 and win and MASSIVELY part of that I'd add Shearer but he played everywhere Then Lyon who imo was just ridiculous So skilful and if he was a hog would have doubled his tries Let's hope our 2025 centres can show this type of...

    3 Favourite Current Manly players

    In a team hopefully on the up - well results in 2024 say yes but Im with Bozo on this - I expect more again in 2025....but how do we get there ? Well the players are obviously a major part of this and we do have some Stars in the side. Just want to see the various opinions on "Favourite"...

    Big Oka is a Scary Thing

    We all scream for some intimidation in our team, especially the forawards....but Big Oka is just ridiculous. He is naturally stronger than anyone and his timing is near Perfect. I think that Collins is gunna pull a hammy before we play Roosters in 2025. Not sure if he is Captain material, but I...

    Young Hoppa - Gotta be in top 17 in 2025

    Not sure where ppl have young Hoppa, but I reckon the perfect combination of class and skill and a Must to be in top grade from day 1 in 2025. I reckon outside Talau who was super in 2024, Hoppa was our best outside back. Where do we fit him in and if so, who misses out ?

    Great season- bad game

    Disappointed - yes But a decent season I felt they went hard but fell short so that's ok And to keep it real - if that ordinary Rooster s team won tonight, we were Buckley chance vs Penrith or Storm I'm pretty frustrated but we gotta stick together and look back at many positives throughout the...
