Tof Sipley

[bob dylan]

Agree with a lot of what you say BD. RCG not so much from what I've seen from him at the Titans so far. Doesn't bend the line, mostly just plods sideways into the line. RCG's done well tho, nice little pre retirement deal on the sunny GC.

Yep he has settled in to the Coadt life 100%.

I was never a great fan anyway.

Soft Ipley needs to find some aggression.

All this means is come rd11,Lodge will likely have a contract and playing first grade.What has this club become

It's marginally better than 2023 when Sharon Woods got regular game time.

Been referred straight to judiciary for THAT tackle. Saints player that was tackled apparently out for 3 months. I think we loose Sips possibly 4-6 weeks.

Bloody marvellous, Tof usually takes a break this time of the year, weather it's injury or suspension, carbon copy with Paseka.

Useless.

Like Brbo!

As usual the management where asleep at the wheel this year with player movement in the front row ranks.

Sure we werent going to get Fisher Harris, but RCG and AFB were both available. Tigers got Terrell May for $650k per season.

The talk of Alex Twal would have been an upgrade on some of our players.

That said I am more than happy with Taukeiuho as our 3rd string prop behind Paseka and Aloia. We should be getting better results but injury has hurt us.

I feel Sipley is our 4th pick, so its harsh to be too critical. He offer more than Taupau at about one third of the price.

Daniel Saifiti was also available! Doing well at the dolphins!

Going to be fun watching half of our useless NSW cup team running around getting flogged in NRL 1st grade.

Hopefully that is just about the end of him in Manly colours. His offside play last night as well as the hip drop, cost us a sloppy win. With all the injuries, Spoon will finally be forced into making a change or two. My guess is Navale and Patolo. But it's Spoon so he might pick four wingers on the bench to try and out think Ivan Cleary. Get ready for another free throw at the stumps press conference excuse from our coach.

Surely the penny's dropped now, got to take a punt on Patplo and Navale, even if they're not going so well in reserves.

I'm guessing Spoon will try to be clever and then brag about how he stretched the premiers like when he got our FB kicking on first tackle. He's about to be badly exposed I think.

Just copped 4 matches.....

Absolutely ridiculous.

What suspension were you expecting?

I thought he should have got off. It looked pretty clear to me that he copped a shoulder to the head and dropped like a sack of spuds. It was an accident. I think if Feagai didn’t get so badly injured, we’d have heard little more about this.

Given he pleaded guilty, I'm assuming the club and its legal team didn't agree with that?

Manly never challenges and this is the result. Bullsht nrl over reaction but I don't think losing Sipley is going to make much difference anyway.
