Non-Manly Games [Round 3, 2016]

In hindsight we probably should have let Skivy go when the Warriors wanted him 2 years ago.
You are running on only 4 cylinders with your comment on letting Skivy go 2 years ago HoldenV8. This is what he did last year with more to come against the Sharkies on Monday behind a more competitive pack.

 
What time this morning did you start drinking Turbo?

I'm 15 mate I'd be doing a pretty good job to sneak a couple of long necks in. Until manly win a game or atleast try to I think all the players deserve criticism accept Taupau, Trbojevic bros and Parcell

No fair enough. Good to see a young bloke on here mixing it with (some) old cranky bastards! You stick to your guns Turbo.....and stay away from the drink!:tmi:😀

Luv ya passion @Turbo give it to em if you're not happy, after all it's the only thing they do all day is train and play.
 
There is more of that to come feathered friend . When our forwards settle Skivy and Killer will make us proud again

While I do agree, the question is how long will it last though?

Guys like Hiku and Gutho will probably still be playing first grade (either here or in the SL) in 2026. Killer and Skivy, legends that they are, are unlikely to go past 2017 at best.

The reality is that although Tom is earmarked to take over at fullback when Snake retires (probably to France), when he moves and both Killer and Skivy go we're going to need a winger and two centres.

Santini may be first grade quality by then, and I guess we could move Walker and buy another 5/8 if someone like Tom Wright hasn't progressed. But right now we're rather short of depth in the outside backs. Quality depth that is.

Remember when Lillee, Marsh and Chappel all retired around 1983/84? As good as players like Border, Hughes (Kym), Lawson, Wessels etc were it still took the Aussie test team about 5 years to come good after that. That's what I fear we're looking at once we lose Snake, Killer and Skivy.
