    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Exactly how manly Manly first grade games were played from 2000 until the end of 2002?

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    Does anyone realize that provided he stays healthy ... in 3 weeks at Brookvale against Penrith, Daly Cherry-Evans will play his 310th first grade game for the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles to become the most capped player in club history?? On that day he should pass the current record of 309 held...

    POLL Brooks Vs Shoe

    I tend to agree with that. Look, DCE is 35. He is in the final years of his career and TBH if his Origin career lasts beyond this year I'll be surprised (it'll be his choice) while I give his NRL career another 3 years at best. Luke Brooks will be 30 in November. These guys aren't going to be...

    Comment about our Defence

    Our defence needs a lot of work. But its only Round 2, we'll see improvements. Just on this subject I looked at the NRL ladder and came up with 1–17 in both attack and defence, remembering that both the Titans and Tigers have only played one game each. Attack: Cowboys (64), Raiders (60), Sea...

    Who misses out?

    Who misses out?? The best headache a coach can have. But I'll say this ... of all those out right now, Saab on the wing is the only one who should be a walk up start. Lets hope the team is playing well enough that those coming back from injury or suspension have to fight their way into the XVII.

    Coach Seibold thoughts so far.... so good

    We are clearly more of an attacking team than we are a defensive team. But the name of the game is to outscore your opponents. I said it last week, I'll say it now.....while I prefer good defence, I don't care if we let in 30 per game so long as we're scoring at least 31.

    The pass to send Hammer down the sideline for his first half try was only about a metre or so forward.....

    Not good news out of the Manly sheds. Tommy Talau dislocated his ankle. That's him gone for a while.

    Its his first time regularly playing centre since 2018 for the Dragons in NSW Cup. And the transition from wing to centre is not as easy as some of us think. He'll own that No.4 jumper.

    Add in the 2 Brooks didn't score. At least. Get that far ahead and who knows if the flood gates would have opened??

    MVP: Rd 2 v Roosters

    3 - Paseka 2 - Brooks 1 - Koula Paseka finally ... FINALLY ran like his size is his advantage. The bloke is 6'6" and 120 kg. Today he finally ran like he IS that big. Brooks didn't get a lot of chances to run today ... but his cool head under pressure when others (DCE and Turbo) were...

    Truth be told we should have won that by a LOT more than just 7 points. If we ever actually click ... damn we're going to be tough to stop.

    Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 2, 2024]

    FYI today is Garrick's 6th game at centre for us @BOZO But you're right, he'll learn and improve.

    Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 2, 2024]

    @HK_Eagle ... 100% agree on Ray. Heart, passion, enthusiasm - he has all in abundance. Unfortunately his talent level is NSW Cup. But I get the feeling if Talau is out, while we're also without Saab it'll be Ray who gets the call.

    How does the slowest bloke on the field get to that ball first?? Jake never gives up.

    Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 2, 2024]

    At least we have options. Ray Vaega is one. Or move Garrick or Koula to the wing and play Parker at centre. Play Burbo at centre and bring Brown or Schuster into the back row. We have options.

    Hopefully Talau's OK. He's been good today up against a taller and faster opponent.

    Sanity finally prevails from Sutton in the bunker. Knock-on Chooks.

    Game Day: Manly v Roosters [Round 2, 2024]

    The 2 may have been the easy option but at least we had something to show for a couple of penalties to get down there. I might have gone for a try though. Might have.
