Only been watching the past 20 minutes. Geez how many forward passes are Manly getting away with?

Really good point.

I don't know much about these young blokes. Geez it would be nice to see them do well - a bit of a late season boost for 2024. Here's hoping.

As dirty as I was with Cleary, there is no doubt he can coach. Often the sign of a good coach is his ability to get average players to perform to the very best of their ability consistently. Apart from the time with Cleary, I have not seen much of this happening over the past 12 years. I know...

Yep, I am not convinced about Naden's head space and frankly does he have a bad injury?? Nowhere to be seen. We desperately need a class centre - from where I don't know. I thought Staines was OK as a centre. He has pace and would have to be better than AJ.

Good first half effort. We just don't look threatening inside the opposition 20 and Rorters look like they can score any time in ours. I'm really hoping the new halves next year can take care of this perennial problem.

Have I missed something with Papalli and Stefano wanting out of the joint?

Tucker, I would like to have a beer with you. I had tears rolling down my face after reading this comment.

Similar situation with Cronk and Walker at the Rorters I feel.

Yes this is true and my advice to him at training this week would be to do the basics well ie in a two on one situation just draw and pass. If the fullback is good enough to chase the outside player down, then so be it.

Yep - someone is finally showing him that a little step and body position change at or before the line makes it so much harder for defenders. Hope he keeps it up. He was fantastic tonight.

Just going out to put the barbie on and have a beer. Mate it is going to taste good. Sometimes when I feel like giving up on this team, you get a win and the world looks rosy again. Well done boys.

I agree Earl. Some of the preseason statements like those related to being an attacking team etc left me uneasy. As stated before, I still feel there is positive energy in the squad, as shown in the majority of performances this year where they were competitive, but didn't get the chocs. In the...

I would like to think this could be done, alas I don't think the Panthers will come to the party. I wonder what he is getting paid at Penrith next year? If it is a paltry sum, maybe they would let him stay here and collect a better paycheck? Don't think so in reality.

This year we have had 10 games decided by less than 10 points. We have lost 8 of these. Normally this evens itself out more across the course of a season. So, we have either been unlucky, had dud calls, didn't know how to close out a game, possibly all of the above. For the most part I have seen...

I like their goal line defence.

I now watch the Tigers games to see if the effort is there and particularly which players are consistently busting their backsides. Api, Bateman, Papali, Brooks, Twal and Seyfarth bust their guts each week. In fact I think many of our players are trying hard for the full 80. The Cowboys...

The most impressive parts of this video were 1: his pace 2: his strength 3: how he managed to still get to the line with 2 or 3 players in front of him. Yes, would like to see him with us. Are we going after him?
