Jake was excellent.

80 minutes from any forward in Origin is a mighty effort. Would of made close to 40 tackles and some of his cover defence was out of this world
Good in defence but no real metres or offloads might as well put Tolman there.

Jake Turbo was our best forward along with Finucane.

Not 1 Queensland forward made over 100m and the only NSW forwards who made just over 100m was Finucane and Klemmer, and Klemmer was constantly killing all momentum because he was refusing to drop to the ground and play the ball quickly.

What game were you watching?

If anything, go after the third brother.
He's yet to establish himself...

Can't see them leaving Manly if they're made a fair offer.

Let's hope our board are trying to unearth players of this calibre and guide them through juniors to grade.

But it doesn't really mater does it? Particularly if the main objective is to push up their cost to Manly, so that they can't afford other players that we can recruit. The word was the Stewart Bros would never ever leave Manly, but Glenn did.

Can't really compare, mate.

Gifty was 30 Y.O - and they had severe cap issues because they got Desballed.

Matai, the Stewarts, and Wattmough were on severely back ended contracts.

Dog Act! Bulldogs plot to steal Manly’s star Trbojevic brothers from Des

The Manly Sea Eagles will have a fight on their hands to retain the Trbojevic brothers come November 1 with the Bulldogs confirming an intention to try and bring the NSW State of Origin duo to Belmore.
While the Sea Eagles have talked up a five-year $10 million package deal aimed at keeping the Turbo brothers on the northern beaches, the Silvertails won’t have it all their own way.
The Bulldogs might be battling to avoid the wooden spoon in the midst of an ongoing salary cap mess but by 2021 they’ll have a war chest building to try and sign some of the NRL’s biggest names.
Canterbury-Bankstown CEO Andrew Hill has told Fox Sports the Bulldogs will open talks with Manly’s NSW Origin and Australian duo if they’re still free agents come November 1.
“We’d certainly be interested if they were on the market come November 1,” Hill said.
The Bulldogs have been busily sounding out a variety of big-name players and young gun juniors behind-the-scenes in the lead-up to being able to table formal offers to free agents.
The Bulldogs have a host of club’s highest-paid players off contract at the end of 2020 including Kieran Foran, Josh Jackson, Dallin Watene-Zelezniak and Will Hopoate.
Other Bulldogs players off contract at the end of 2020 include Adam Elliott, Jack Cogger, Raymond Faitala-Mariner, Kerrod Holland, Lachlan Lewis and Aiden Tolman.
So it’s fair to say Canterbury-Bankstown will have a multimillion-dollar war chest.
At the same time Manly have signalled an intention to try and lock the Turbo brothers up long-term prior to the November 1 open market deadline.
To keep the brothers on the northern beaches, the Sea Eagles are expected to need to deliver both contracts in excess of $1 million per season.
The issue for Manly is the size of captain Daly Cherry-Evans’s contract, which takes up 16 per cent of the Sea Eagles salary cap until the end of 2023.
The Bulldogs play will add a new chapter to the rivalry between both clubs, which stems back to Canterbury-Bankstown poaching Des Hasler after the Sea Eagles won the premiership in 2011.
Hasler then took the Bulldogs to grand finals in 2012 and 2014 before being sacked at the end of the 2017 season after missing the finals for the first time in six seasons.
