I am sure a KFC diet will soon fix that

And Benji can complete his game by teaching him the rare art of passing it into row 10.In that case he only needs to learn one of 2 skills to come here,he either has to become unable to grubber the ball past the defenders legs or alternatively kick it over the dead ball line by 20 meters
Yeah but look deeper. Our forwards to 1 too many ball shifts for my liking. I’ve heard this many times, we have the forward pack to set the platform what platform?Forwards set the platform, rugby league 101, and they've been doing that all year. At least as well as any other team. When it comes to backline play I'm convinced we have the talent, we simply don't have the structure/shape/coaching. We don't have the halves, granted, but there's never been a structured play to get a 3 on 2 or even a 2 on 1. it's mechanical, just practice it at training like 14 of the 17 clubs do. Us, the dragons and dogs just can't seem to construct anything. It's coaching.
All they have to do is get metres in possession, which they do. Field position isn't our problem, it's what the backs don't do when in position.Yeah but look deeper.

What are our forwards actually achieving?
Are we getting quick play the balls and a fast ruck?
Are we seeing them belt the opposition and making it a tough game?
Are we seeing them bust tackles and making line breaks?
What they are getting is meters in possession but there is a lack of variety so would we really have an effective game plan on the back of our forward pack alone?
I am not sure where you got 29 from. This is my current top 30 for next year, let me know if I have missed anybody. Think we have 5 spots to fill (3 if we got Sezer & Sullivan). Even though TDS will probably be top 30 next year I only have what is confirmed written down. I only think we upgrade TDS if we move on Rua / Jake anyway.IF we sign Sullivan & Sezer that would be 29 Top 30 spots taken based on who we already have on the books.
Really need to release at least 2 maybe 3 players: Simpkin, Nofoaluma, Reilly & possibly Naden or Kepaoa.
Sign Tracey. Resign/Upgrade Staines & James.
Then we look fair.
1. Bula
2. Tupou
3. To'a/Feledy
4. Tracey
5. Staines
6. L. Fainu/Sullivan/Douiehi (when fit)
7. Sezer
8. Utoiukamanu
9. Korosaui
10. Klemmer
11. Papali'i
12. Bateman
13. Blore
14. Da Silva/Sullivan
15. James
16. Pole
17. Twal
18. Kepaoa/Naden
19. S. Fainu
Plus obviously the other 10 or so with Top 30 deals.
Depth in halves, back & forwards! Wow!
Ha, I think I have fallen for some fake news.You’re obviously real up on the news real well - Manly put out a statement of who managers how many of their players…
Moses currently manages 5/39 players counted and is 4th on the list behind Tarak and the Orrs amongst others
Apologies for adding reality to your lovely little fairytale here…
How can news outlets get away with outright lies?Ha, I think I have fallen for some fake news.
The Daily telegraph (man they are Horrible for accuracy, seriously dumb). said that 19/30 of their players were managed by Issac Moses.

Sea Eagles' Player management list for 2023
Manly Warringah Sea Eagles would like to clarify the list of player management agencies the Club is using in season 2023.www.seaeagles.com.au
clearly it is only 5.
Funny too how Manly have been bagged over clearing up the situation which was made by the Fake daily telegraph.
Ok for a low table club but all the top teams have forwards that aren’t just meter eaters. They have skills and variety and they are very much a factor of their sides ability to attack.All they have to do is get metres in possession, which they do. Field position isn't our problem, it's what the backs don't do when in position.

Getting metres in possession is in no way "all they have to do". That is as much the back 5's role as it is the forwards. They need to limit the oppositions metres, ours don't. They need to slow the opposition's play the ball to limit their attacking opportunities, ours don't. They need to create quick play the balls to attack off the back of, ours don't. They need to create their own attacking opportunities and line breaks through tackle breaks and off-loads, ours don't.All they have to do is get metres in possession, which they do. Field position isn't our problem, it's what the backs don't do when in position.
Media and lies…….very very common especially during elections….where lies are truly acceptable….and most people believe. That’s how elections are won!How can news outlets get away with outright lies?
Sullivan an option immediately said he can go in the article, if we do go for him that would make sense if Laurie is off also.- laurie deal happend as expected, most likely his last game for the club last night
- no rush for the club to put latu into 6, sullivan is seen as a low risk high upside signing , still with sezer at 7, dragons would put up a little less then half to get him off the books, but watch the dogs make a play
- whispers that nick cotric may ask for a release from the raiders too, no interest from the tigers at this stage, but i would take him
Thank you for elaborating on my point.Getting metres in possession is in no way "all they have to do". That is as much the back 5's role as it is the forwards.

Our pack is okay. It is competent for the first time in many years. But, it is no better than the majority of opposition forward packs.

Sheesh, I didn’t know Stef’s contract had an option for 2025.
Sullivan has a hamstring injury doesn’t he? I doubt he plays again this season is a ‘mid’ season release worthwhile?- laurie deal happend as expected, most likely his last game for the club last night

Reilly getting a three year top 30 contact gotta be up there with one of the worst signings ever madeI am not sure where you got 29 from. This is my current top 30 for next year, let me know if I have missed anybody. Think we have 5 spots to fill (3 if we got Sezer & Sullivan). Even though TDS will probably be top 30 next year I only have what is confirmed written down. I only think we upgrade TDS if we move on Rua / Jake anyway.
