Manly have had an awesome run over the past 7 years with 2 premierships, another grand final appearance, and consistently one of the better teams year in year out.
But I wonder ...
1. They lose quite a bit of depth next year, even though they retain most of their key players, and this lack of depth could be critical.
2. Jamie Lyon will be 31 next year, and I really believe he is their heart and soul. How much longer can he continue to play at a high level?
3. Geoff Toovey. I don't think we can truly judge a coach until his second year. Next year could make or break Toovey.
4. I see quite a few teams improving next year who may overtake the Sea Eagles.
Is this the beginning of the end of the Manly dynasty?
Or will they be up there again among the better teams next year?
Thoughts?
