And..
Jazz Tevaga signs with Manly for 2025
Manly are going to love the minutes where they have Josh Aloiai and Jazz in the middle. Comedy show

Jazz Tevaga will play NSW Cup lets be honest haha.
Fucking dumb of Stacey to say that, should keep that inhouse.
The Warriors of old returned this year, was anyone really surprised? Players heads not right is something a good club handles.

Rumours that 4 NRL clubs chasing Moses Leo, I just hope the Warriors are one of them
aaaaand
he's off to the Storm
We have signed a Cronulla NSW-Cup hooker

seriously how do our "pathways" not pick this up, serious potential talent, look at the beast Will Warbrick has become
Dont know much about the hooker, what we do know is that Egan is always injured and Lussick while he does his job, is hardly threatening
Leo doesn't have the best ball security. Given how structured the possession is in League that seems like a big issue
Fun game because both teams sucked
Sharks should have won by 40 but blew so many opportunities. Cowboys were awful. Drinkwater with an all-time stinker. Just think the cows chose him over hammer
Cronulla are going to he destroyed by Penrith next week. The NRL is broken
Two Manly players knocked out in the first 20 seconds of the game. Both won’t return me thinks.
And so the Top 4 play the prelims.
The Roosters showed more than i expected against an admittedly very average Manly side, and just maybe they can finally win against melbourne and break the expected GF.
Cronulla would have to go up several levels to beat play-offs Panthers.
To be fair on Manly, those early head knocks do impact the team, but still, was almost like last week was their final.
If Penrith allow the Sharks to get off to their regular fast start it will be interesting, else likely business as usual.
Who would have thought a possible Sydney team winning AFL and Melbourne team winning NRL in the same year. Both a good shot.
Expected NRL final still looking likely
Not a Broncos fan by any stretch of the imagination (despite them being my team until the Warriors came in to being)
but
i hope for their sake this doesn't Bradbury T-Baz in to the coaching seat.

Sorry, who? (I think I may know but don't want to appear a bigger ignoramus than I already do ... )
Trent Barrett, who has coached (and been sacked by) Manly, the Bulldogs and the Eels
for a combined record of 38-83
lol

just choked on my coffee, surely T Baz couldn't fluke that one
well, he's a signed assistant coach with "head coaching experience"
i mean, i like to think not, but...
wow, still could be an Arthur or a Maguire I suppose. Top job will be interesting though, Broncos would be a sought after role
@African-Monkey said in NRL 2024:
Not many options out there in fairness, unless you take a punt on a rookie.
I reckon the average punter could achieve Trent's numbers.

i was going to make a joke about Benji and the Tigers until i realised that TBaz won 40% of his games at Manly with DCE, prime Turbos, young AFB and Walker, prime Marty Taupau.
Yeah, they could have coached themselves to 10 wins
gee the Broncos really resent the Lions being in the GF tomorrow
First they sack their coach, and now Mam and Walsh are in trouble in Bali
interesting hearing from Broncos insiders, Madge is preferred target with Ennis and Teo as assistants. Not a group I would have necessarily associated together

Teo did play under Maguire when Souths went all the way in 2014, and Ennis is always around teams in some capacity.

That makes sense, forgot about the Souths link
Melbourne's recruitment strategy pays off bigly as Grant, Munster, Hughes and Papi all have massive games as they score 48 points in a preliminary final to book a date in the GF.
Score doesn't tell the story of the Roosters giving them and almighty fright to be within 6 early in the 2nd half.
Pretty fucking fun game of footy. Melbourne in this form will be hard for even Penrith to handle.
NAS will be hoping for GF leniency or he's watching the game with the rest of us

Don't Origin rules apply to GF?
I think he plays, think if it wasn’t NAS it doesn’t even get 10 in the bin, so many of those shoulder contacts slipping up not even given this year

I think it's 50/50, it's a chance for the Aussies to rub him out for the Pacific Cup.

Looks like you’re right, they gave him 4 weeks
Penrith make tough work of Cronulla but the chin pulls out the big plays to get them there.
We get the grand final we all predicted but picking a winner here will be tough.
It makes you wonder if the Broncos management had planned to bring in Madge before sacking Walters. Maguire released from NSWRL role and said to be announced within days as head coach by Broncos
