    Is Brandy the biggest knob ever ?

    Over the years Brandy has been very fair to Manly. Whether we like it or not the farce no try comes down to the stupid black and white interpretation. According to the letter of the rule its a no try. Yes it was a crucial decision, did it cost us a win? Potentially. What you cannot ignore is a...

    Ian Heads dies after long illness

    I did that in August 1982. It was the week of the Tooth cup when Manly beat Newtown in the final!.

    Leaking points in the 20m

    The team has to build resilience when we lose the ball, far too often a try is conceded from a turn over and what we do with the ball when we have, especially getting to the end of our sets is crucial. One good sign on Sunday, when there 26-18 down and really going no where, DCE put in a...

    Ian Heads dies after long illness

    I got to know Ian Heads when I had the opportunity to do work experience at Rugby League Week as a 15 year old boy. Fantastic gentleman who loved rugby league and I admired his passion for sports writing. Vale Mr Ian Heads!

    Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    Manly had the game on their terms, they they frittered it away with bad indiscipline which meant that our errors led to points for them, we had a chance to control the game at 14-0 and we aided and abetted their win today!

    Post-Game Discussion Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    Two points given up. Cruising at 14-0 and our errors and discipline get them into the game. From the 15th minute till the 70th minute we were really poor. The try on half time was against the run of play to be honest. At whingers Park, you cannot afford simple errors and we committed so...

    RIP PHIL LOWE

    Our try scorer in the winning 1976 grand final. Big, tall dominant second rower who was a constant menace in attack and defence to oppositions. Would always annoy Rex Mossop with his one handed put down when scoring a try. Condolences to all his family and friends in the UK and Australia, RIP Phil!

    Nathan Brown Impact?

    Watching him play last Sunday was really refreshing. He adds a lot coming off the bench, he has a good side step and made good yards with the ball and his defence is really sound. If he stays fit and focused, he could be one of the buys of the year!

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    As usual there is a lot of noise about Josh and his form. His first game back was way underwhelming and lets see if hes prepared to put in the work to break back into the first team or if he sinks into the abyss of mediocrity!

    Lehi Hopoate

    Let the boy develop, if he has talent he will get his chance. I do not have a lot of faith in the name Hopoate as their loyalty is always driven by the almighty dollar!

    [Resurrected] Jackson Hastings

    The consistent problem that Hastings does not deal with is criticism of his form. He had so many clubs and he bails out and moves on when this happens. He has not been able to have much stability apart from his stint in the UK, might be a message there!

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    DCE is the master of the clutch field goal, it must give the team so much confidence in tight games that he can get it done!

    Pre-Game Eels v Manly [Round 3, 2024]

    This is a very difficult match coming up, Typically when you player at whinger stadium, you are not only playing their players, you also deal with officials who are not going to give you very little. To win there, you need to match their pack which very strong and get in the face of their 7 who...

    Blacktown Workers

    They were clearly off the pace from the first minute, the Roosters looked fitter and organised and Blacktown looked pedestrian. Considering the team they had out there, they were poor yesterday.

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I watched the Blacktown game yesterday, Schuster is a lot bigger in size this year compared to last. Obviously for a 2nd row position. It was his first hit out, the team including him played like bludgers yesterday, He looked out of juice pretty early in the game and had minimal impact on the...

    POLL Brooks Vs Shoe

    I saw Shu play today for Blacktown and allowing for it was his first game, he was pedestrian and pretty much anonymous today. He has a lot of work ahead to be a contender for first grade!

    Comment about our Defence

    That first defensive set after half time, laid the platform for 15 minutes of dominance which got us further ahead and for some reason denied a try that puts us well away from the Roosters. The Roosters are a very dangerous football team with so many attacking options and in general Manly...
