Rumours and Stuff

[Avenger]

I lost $20. Nearly got paid though. Actually the only time I haven't bet against us this year was the Sharks game. So I'm down $140 total (because I had $80 on the Storm). Hopefully I finish the year in the red because I've made money every year since 2017.

Betting on footy is for housos.

You need to go forward before contemplating doing anything else. We have the best front row pairing in the nrl and we all know BA has his flaws, but he has a knack of getting the odd forward to shine. This will counter what RCG and parlor are on.

More towards the end of their contracts when they are past 30 and carrying injuries

By his attitude on here. A successful man just wouldn't post like that, whether serious or trolling.

I think everyone on here (except me of course) is probably INCEL.

Its so frustrating Manly have basically won a premiership every decade since the 1970s.

While they train at a dump in narrabeen. Play at a shithole at Brookvale. Have fair weather fans.

And a smaller junior rugby league talent pool yet seem to get the right players into their system.

Manly just have always had winning DNA that Parramatta can never seem to get.

I think that's in the past. Except for Turbo they are a long way off the pace as a club now.

 

[T-Boon]

You're missing Gutherson's leadership value. A strong club isn't just about the total player talent in the group. There is an essential element of leadership that can be impossible to replace. If you've ever worked in good teams and bad teams you would've seen this clearly. Leadership is a real thing, separate from management. People like TheRam, who've never been part of a team or experienced any success in life, fail to understand this.

This is a good point. His leadership is all the more important due to the fact Brad Arthur lacks leadership qualities (BA has some leadership but his is not for example a motivator or a communicator). I also remember when Cayless and Hindmarsh were the leaders and they were kind of crap.

if you watch him, please feel free to share an unbiased opinion on the merkin.

Will do, mate.

My mum lives in Housing Commission and she doesn't bet on footy. Doesn't mind the pokies though.

Mik told me to load up on Golden State in the NBA

I wouldn't rule Manly out yet. They have Schuster to return and Des is a smart coach. They have x factor players and if all fit I still think they could do something

 

[Gronk]

That it wasn’t long ago u were talking him up and now you’re not. I thought it was obvious.

No, you were just fixated on nepotism at the time and lost focus on what was really happening.

 

[hindy111]

I'm sick of hearing the word nepotism. Almost as bad as gaslighting.

 

[IFR33K]

oh ok. Maybe I have lost focus, because if JA was the best half in NSW cup, one would think he’d almost be close to ready for nrl. My bad

 

[Joshuatheeel]

JA will go back to NSW cup and he will be watched. If his forms terrible he will drop behind the pecking order. Maybe the kid from under 20s will step up and over take him. Maybe JA will drop back down to jersey flegg also. Very silly to write him off as a 19yld with 5 games and a body that hasn't even developed enough tomplay NSW CUP. The poor merkin would be intimidated when you have 125kgs forwards running at you.
Let him settle. Give him 2yrs in NSW cup and at 21 maybe see if he is an NRL player.

Anyone playing NSW cup won’t be intimidated by 125kg forwards running at them…. they may get smashed but they will have a crack…no way do they get to that level being scared of the big boys…

 

[hineyrulz]

They made a prelim last year.

What’s a prelim???

By his attitude on here. A successful man just wouldn't post like that, whether serious or trolling.

So you are very unsuccessful then???

I was defending him in NRL. The 120kgs guys in the NRL running at you are different beasts then Nsw cup. Well probably not as much a difference these days

Im really looking forward to TLT tomorrow. So many possibilities.
Are Marata and Jake back and if so what grade will they play?
Do we get good news on Waqa?
Will Oggy be back after missing last week?
Will Dantoray be back after also missing last week?
If Waqa is out how will the backline be structured?
Hopefully a timeframe for when Russell returns?
Will Rein retain his spot after his 20 minute hit out?
Has BA lost faith in Cartys D after 2 try conceeding efforts in consecutive weeks?
If Junior is suspended who gets his spot and as a consequence what will the bench make up be?
Will Lane be back and if so does he start or on the bench?
If Lane returns on the bench will BA play him in the middle again?
Im so looking forward to next Monday. Should be a great day. Gee I hope the 2s and 3s are playing at Commbank this coming round.
Go you Magnificent Eels.
