    Sea Eagles to transform Brookvale Oval

    The big fear is that the criteria needed for an NRL team includes the facilities provided at the home ground. I worry that the idiots at the NRL will leave the whole of the North of Sydney without a team, forcing us to play home games at Allianz or Homebush or trying to locate, all because of...

    Question ..... Who is the worst footballer to play first grade ?

    Jye Mullane for me - was an absolute lemon - in a team of nobodies. Used to kick balls that ended up on the full in row two or three of the stand. (He is largely responsible for the formation of this site - though that is another story)

    Watmough ... You reap what you sow !

    This post has great relevance. Watmough himself 'slagged' Manly and left, losing the opportunity to remain a One Club Legend. Just as pertinent is the idea that Keiran Foran was going to play for the club that would best develop his footy. If he dreams that going to Parra is going to achieve...

    Defence is a Problem

    It doesn't need Einstein to itell us that our defence this year has been way off the standard of previous years. We have leaked tries down the edges on both sides when Matai and Lyon have been injured. Our ruck defence is also missing the industry of Starling and Lawrence. Whilst not the best...

    Home Games

    Over the past 10 years Manly have been close to unbeatable at Brookvale. Even in a good years, we have only won about half our away games, apart from the very top seasons. Last season was built on 9 out of 10 wins at Brookie, the only loss being to Melbourne by a point (after leading 20 nil at...

    Hypothetical

    We have been letting established first graders go to keep the ones we had, sacrificing depth to keep the majority of the side in order. Most of the new young players bought at bargain prices have not stepped up as yet. It takes time to blood young players and for them to adjust the demands and...

    CREDIT TO PENN & KELLY

    I see the scenario - Penn and Kelly went out and injured all the of the Manly players. They then asked Parra and the Gold Coast to pay more money to the two halves. They leaked all the rubbbish to Adrian Prozenko at the SMH and then circulated the rumours themselves. There is really a secret...

    While no one was watching.......

    Some of you have forgotten the year that Bozo resigned to allow Peter Sharp to take over. We lost 7 of the first 8 if memory serves me correctly. That was 1999 I think. What followed after were the darkest years of ever, with the ill-fated merge and no Manly for four years. I stopped supporting...

    Best Ever Manly Hookers

    Bomb-thrower by streets. Not only did he sit behind Fred Jones as the second best hooker in the comp for ages, he starred at International level as a key member of the Immortals, going on two undefeated Kangaroo tours to England. Great clubman as well who was pivotal to two premierships for...

    New Regime Botched Halves Negotiations Says Phil Sidney

    The undermining continues!!! The divided board at Manly has been toxic for years. We finally get clear air and suddenly the disaffected and displaced start their campaign. The biggest issue at Manly and most clubs is that management want to manage. Whilst Des was at the club, he wanted to...

    Max Delmege

    That is great given that Max himself is party to a whole lot of FACEBOOK threads last night all related to him being insulted as he wasn't given a free ticket (as in the past) to the Melbourne game this weekend. (It is a cheap free-kick to launch an Anti-Penn and Zorba Vendetta - though who...

    The day the music died .....

    I am old enough to remember the day that Ken Arthurson let Bob Fulton go. I was sick for months. Bob Fulton was Manly. Without him we more than often lost. Him going to the Roosters after two dark years was the darkest day in our club's history. 1977 was like a pall of gloom. Funnily enough, we...

    Max Delmege has a swipe

    Max has a short memory. I remember when Manly were working to buy Orford, as sponsor he got involved with Michael Monaghan and we ended up having to sign him and Orford. He ended up playing Hooker when we had Ballin waiting in the wings. MM was a 100% trier but once Orford and Ballin were 9 and...

    Is this you???

    That moment was one of the great moments in Sea Eagle history and it was a privilege to be live to see it. Thanks for the reminder.

    Steve Matai, Kieran Foran want to join exodus from Manly Sea Eagles

    Don't you long for the days when a Contract was a contract and a player's word was what happened? Mind you, I long for the day when the media was not about sales, muckraking, innuendo and the Daily Telegraph being the lowest form of journalism in the world!!!

    Watnough - Confession!!!

    Choc's last game for Manly - in the stands (Did he turn up at that Semi?) whilst his team-mates lost to the Dogs. He plays that night = we win. Great way to finish.

    Slimey fans nicknamed Hoppa Jnr - Floppa

    Gotta admit they are close to the mark. Which spot would he take in the Manly backline outside wing? He would'nt replace either Centre, or Snake at fullback.

    Penn's buy out Quantum

    If the club is going to move on from the factions/hatred of the past, maybe a few supporters need to as well. Who needs the media to keep up the bitching and fighting when you have all the old arguments surfacing on this site, minutes after the announcement. Many on this site seem to be...

    5 burning questions: Sea Eagles

    I think the article is well balanced. We had the team to get to the finals but not the squad to win it. The class in our backs is apparent - but some more grunt and go forward is essential. The fact that we had the least metres of the contenders is something to turn around. Choc, who...

    Watnough - Confession!!!

    I can't jump on board with the current haters. He has brilliant for us over many years and despite his issues, he has been a champion. I would hate to see him go but thank him for his contribution to our domination over the last ten years. Pity that he will not go out like Beaver, many games for...
