    Northern Eagles - A retrospective look at how it could have worked

    I think we can take it as read that the Club HAS learned from this ghastly mistake, and will never repeat it... ☺

    Northern Eagles - A retrospective look at how it could have worked

    Why is anyone even contributing to this thread? Surely no-one WANTED it to work...I certainly didn't! I NEVER considered the Northern Eagles to be my team, never attended a single one of their games or watched them on television, and spent three years just praying for their demise and the return...

    The premiership window

    Second-best behind Malcolm Reilly, I assume he meant? :giggle:

    Great idea: Northern Eagles???

    Didn't work too well last time, did it? Or are you too young to remember the dark days of 2000 - 02?

    Great idea: Northern Eagles???

    Did it? What difference did it make apart from the name? And everyone still calls them "Easts" anyway...even players and fans who weren't even born when they changed the name back in the mid-90s. Plus, they have not expanded their area at all...no-one calls them "Sydney", or considers that they...

    NRL club on the chopping block for second Brisbane team

    If Manly go, I am no longer a rugby league fan...end of. Same as in the dark days of the Northern Eagles, when I simply walked away from the game. No real fan could just choose another team and carry on as though nothing had happened. I certainly couldn't. And for the information of whoever...

    If we get the Spoon...

    The worst part about getting the spoon would be the inevitable gloating from every other club's supporters. And their friends in the media. I don't think I could stand that... Actually, if you started supporting Manly in 1969 THIS is your 50th year...think about it. Really? What were you...

    Now Vs Then

    This is irrelevant...what the hell does the Northern Eagles have to do with Manly?

    No-one Says "Lottoland" With A Straight Face

    All of what you say is perfectly true, gentlemen...but the fact remains that the name "Lottoland" is ridiculous and embarrassing. I can't even say it myself without rolling my eyes... @:rolleyes:

    No-one Says "Lottoland" With A Straight Face

    Yeah, well...as I said I fully expect the name to be largely ignored by the fans, and most commentators too...apart from the ones who have to call it "Lottoland" for contractual reasons. It will be interesting to see just how many people are still using the name in three years time... "Will the...

    No-one Says "Lottoland" With A Straight Face

    Has anyone else noticed this? During Wide World of Sports this morning, then The Sunday Footy Show, then during the coverage of the game itself it seemed that none of the presenters/commentators on Ch 9 could call Brookvale Oval "Lottoland" without at least a smirk on their face, if not a...

    Will Parra Have to Hand Back all their Trophies Like Melbourne Did?

    I don't think the NRL could strip them of a premiership they didn't award in the first place. Remember, the NRL didn't even exist in 1986...the game was under the jurisdiction of the NSWRL /ARL in those days. Most of Parramatta's current players (and a large proportion of their fans) weren't...

    Why Can't We Just Win!!!!!

    Correction :) The Cowboys played the Broncos in the grand final last year, not the Bronco's...there is no apostrophe in their name. @;)

    Two-thirds Of Sydney Nrl Games Must Be Held At Big Three Venues: Nsw Government

    I don't see how Parramatta Stadium and the Sydney Football Stadium (I refuse to call these grounds by the sponsor names) can be described as "ageing venues", seeing as they only opened in 1986 and 1988 respectively. 30-odd years is hardly a long time for a structure such as a sports stadium, and...

    I see real issues.

    I always thought Jamie Lyon looked a bit like Captain Scarlet...and there is definitely a touch of the Steve Zodiac about Tom Trbojevic.

    Naming rights for Brookvale Oval - suggestions

    To be honest, I have always thought that cheapens the club too. I recognise the financial need for jersey sponsorship (or, to describe it more accurately, advertising), but from a personal point of view, I don't like it at at all. Apart from the dubious morality of a club selling its identity...

    Naming rights for Brookvale Oval - suggestions

    I did say "the money involved notwithstanding"...meaning I understand the reasoning behind naming rights, but it just sticks in the craw with me for the club to sell part of its identity like that. The ground has always been called "Brookvale Oval" as long as I have been following the game (and...
