    Why not Tooves?

    For the life of me, can some one tell me why Laurie Daly, Mat Johns, and other former players with no NRL coaching experience are being thrown around as potential NSW Blues coaches and yet Geoff is not even being mentioned? Its always baffled me the anti-Toovey bias in the media. Don't get me...

    I’m not one for ‘calling out’ players but….

    Geordie is just not up to it That pass to Brown was terrible. That miss (along with Brookes) was unacceptable. He’s not a 14 for me. I love backing out youngsters etc… but I just don’t think he’s up to it. I don’t mind if he now wins us the game and makes me look stupid….

    Where will we finish?

    If you had told me that we would be sitting in 6th place with just a few rounds to go - and would have an outside chance of the Top 4 - I would have said we have had a good season. But if you throw on top the fact that: We are threatening to get back to close to full strength We are basically...

    The great expansion conundrum....

    I will admit I haven't spent as much time thinking about this one as many others on here - but it hit home with the whole Humphries/Souths debate: We are living in a Rugby League world of Salary Caps and Expansion. It generally means that teams can only afford to keep so many players on their...

    Has the Vegas experiment been a success?

    It is hard to get a good gauge on whether or not it has gone well - mainly because the only coverage of it is coming from Fox Sports, and they are spinning it deluxe like fairy floss. So putting aside the bias from the coverage for a minute - it certainly looks like it has been a success. Our...

    Can't have it both ways!

    The Schuster conundrum (his exceptional potential, his glimpses of immortality, his lack of effort, and his ultimate disappointment - SO FAR) is something we should all keep in the back of our minds next time an amazing/gun junior leaves the club. I think about the Fainu's and the response...

    The Tartak (Crown Sports) purge

    Not my area of expertise - I have been informed by other far more astute members of the Silvertails population..... But it is IMPOSSIBLE to deny that Scott Fulton's move to Wests, and the well known Tartak-domination of our squad has led to a very interesting bunch of decisions needing to be...

    What is the new version of 13+?

    Credit to @Mark from Brisbane as he raised this in another thread - but I genuinely think it is worth a seperate conversation. When I was a young lad, is used to spend $5 here or there having a punt on the footy. I would often look at which games I felt would be 'close' vs which games would be...

    Des's next job

    Keen to hear people's opinion on the way forward for Des. There has been a lot of passion and opinions laid bare here over the last few weeks.... mainly about the treatment of Des by Penn (I won't re-open old wounds with my opinion) But if we step away from the Penn v Des debate - and instead...

    Manly/Turbo getting even more famous

    Hi all, I know not everyone listens to podcasts - let alone this one (The socially Distant Sports-bar) a comedy/sport podcast by three Welsh comedians imagine my surprise when this weeks episode at 38 mins started to watch/review a clip of our very own Tommy T and his individual try against...

    When should we think about resting players?

    Given it is a weird year once again (with the mental challenges of lockdowns on players, relocation to QLD etc) when do we start to think about resting players? If you think about it - we no longer are a shot at the top 4, and whether we come 5th or 8th becomes completely irrelevant (no home...

    DWZ to Warriors - stroke of luck for us?

    Ok - I admit i watch VERY few games other than Manly.... so this is only a semi-informed post. But with the news today of DWZ moving to the warriors, have we gotten a little lucky? We still have to play the Dogs twice - but I fully expect us to beat them on both occasions regardless of DWZ...

    Ripped off?

    Any 'mainstay' player in Origin (i.e. a player who will play in 2 or 3 of the games) is highly likely to miss at least one or two club games as a result of their involvement (or at least be impacted in the way they get involved for their club when backing up) I KNOW that Dally M points are...

    How short are our memories?

    Bloody hell Silvertailers. ONE loss to the frikkin Sharks during a season which will forever have a * next to the premiers...... and everyone starts doing their best impersonation of Chicken Licken??? I have just logged on for the first time since the loss, and you wouldn't know we are in the...

    Quick question re: Kayo, Foxtel, Live Pass or Channel 9 - please help?

    Hi all, Technical question here.... I have young kids, so can't always watch a live match - but i ALWAYS want to watch a match before I hear the score. Sometimes, it might be a matter of catching up an hour after kick off, or 2 hours etc (when they go to bed). I have Foxtel Go on my smart TV...

    What slot is 'prime time' in the new world?

    Hi all, Interesting to see we have heads of Sunday afternoon/twilight games, and a few other time slots sprinkled in throughout the year. Historically, Thursday and Friday night @ 7:30pm was deemed the 'golden ticket' for marketing $$$ with Channel 9 and Fox, followed by Sunday afternoon. But...

    Well played PVL - go hard

    First time posting an article, so have likely done it wrong.... but I am chuffed to see he has stamped down hard on these muppets. NRL hands out hefty fines to players for breaking coronavirus restrictions - ABC News

    What will the extended break mean for.....(injuries)

    Injuries? Will we have almost everyone back - fit and firing? Other than Fainu of course. Hoppa? AFB? Also - what about our opposition? We have played the Storm and Roosters already (no qualms there) but do any of the other opponents have any star players who might be able to make it back on...
