What exaggerated dribble this is. It’s 2 rounds into the season & they’ve scraped past the favourite & 3rd favourite to win the wooden spoon. ‘South’s are laughing at us top 5’ 🤣 are you an undercover bunnies fan or something? Chill out mate, there is still 25 rounds to go.

Keeping it simple he wanted to play halfback & isn’t anywhere close to DCE’s level. At south’s he was battling an import with 0 nrl games, pretty easy choice for a 23 year old that wants to play 1st grade.
100% you can’t keep them all. He would of been a quality #9 for us but he was always going to go elsewhere if he was told he would play halfback

Exactly, he's got a good pass and kicks well, and a good goalkicker. The big tests are yet to come tho.
 
Turbo won't play , wet night, forwards will get smoked by their pack. Their speed will waltz through the rice paper wall of DCE and Garrick. Raiders by plenty.

Brown and Talau will almost certainly come in, making the bench:

14. Simpkin
16. Bullemor
18. Talau
21. Brown

That's a very very light bench. Hence, if those two come in, they'll probably switch Simpkin and Tevaga, so that the bench is:

9. Tevaga
16. Bullemor
18. Talau
21. Brown

The numbers don't look pretty, but that's a much stronger bench.
 
So did we “ let him go “ or was it that we offered him a contract but couldn’t guarantee him a starting position.

To be honest I’ve heard both sides of this story.
That's possible Mark, but for so long he was talked about as a successor to DCE , however in the only games that he played in first grade was as a hooker, from memory, which was hardly a ringing endorsement from the club, that's what's disappointing.
 
Great to see you “ at work “ again Mick , transmission normal.
As soon as Seibold Makes a Winning Transmission
Mick will make a Positive contribution to the forum
As I have said Many times feathered friend Mark
When the Winning Starts The Whinging Stops

At Manly We hate Losing with a Passion
Show me a Good loser and I will show a Loser
Proud Manly People are not Good losers

Manly Loses have a Devastating emotional affect on Passionate Manly People
NRL is not just a game
The Manly Club is not just a Club
It is a way of life
and no one want to keep living a life as a Loser

The Overwhelming feelings
of a Devastated Manly Fan after a Manly Loss
