    Today's crowd waiting to be seen

    I got to the game before half time of the Holden Cup and still couldn't find a park in close proximity to the ground so I knew it was going to be a good crowd. Cronulla's estimate of 3000 fans was way underachieved, it would have been closer to 300. People say Manly fans don't travel but with...

    tigers after g rose

    Wasn't there some sort of massive uproar about player welfare this year in the AFL where they reduced interchange from 300 to 280 per game?

    67th Year - Manly All Time Best

    I'd have the following in contention and am absolutely glad I'm not the one that will have to make final decisions: FB: Eadie, Stewart Wing: Irvine, Branighan, Robertson Centre: Bozo, Lyon, Hill, O'Conner 5/8th: Lyons, O'Connell Halfback: Toovey, Hasler Prop: Bull...

    Bolters for nsw

    If they switch Hayne back to FB, Taufua could be an outside chance at a wing spot. Uate has been exposed as a liability who isn't great under the high ball. Taufua would add something in the kick returns and he was part of the Blues development squad.

    Toovey hits out ahead of Richie Fa'aoso judiciary hearing

    Webster had a big sook about it on the back page of today's paper. Mentioned Slater but ignored its relevance to Fa'aoso's case.

    Lyon West Bound??

    I would hate to lose Lyon (as I'm most of us would) but if we can use his money to secure Hopoate on a long contract I wouldn't be so disappointed. Lyon probably only has a few good years left in him (including this year) and Hopoate could potentially be at the club for another 10 years. Tough...

    Find me a weaker starting pack

    Actually was written in Feb 2007 but we still went on to finish 2nd and play in the GF.

    Clubs vent fury as ASADA backs off

    No, not a doctor (of the medical variety or the pHD variety).

    If Richies Out

    Tbh, I think the dangerous contact charge is fair enough. While the head clash was clearly accidental, it was the result of a play that contravenes the rules. I wouldn't be happy if he was suspended for the shoulder charge but I think this potential charge is reasonable. We'd be livid if someone...

    That's probably enough for Mal to lay claim to him.

    Snake about to pass Bozo into 2nd place

    Amazing that Choc will likely finish his career having scored more tries for Manly than blokes like Lyons and Hasler as well as some great wingers in Robertson, Hopoate and Hancock. Obviously longevity makes a big difference but even still for a forward to be scoring nearly 7 tries a season for...

    Crowd Number for the game?

    I agree with all this. I thought it was around the 16,000 mark. The corporate area looked fantastic and there was plenty of activity going on inside to suggest there was some money made by the club. I was at the game a couple of years ago against Souths where there was around 19,000, it was...

    At full strength who goes?

    8. Lawrence 9. Ballin 10. Kite 11. Watmough 12. Horo 13. Stewart 14. Fa'aoso 15. Gulavao 16. King 17. Buhrer I'd be keeping Lawrence in the starting side and adding King to the bench to work his way back. Buhrer offers too much to be dropped and has great impact off the bench. Horo...

    Three players set to be targeted by ASADA over use of banned peptide CJC-1295

    No, this is not a criminal case, it is not handled through the regular legal system. It is a matter for WADA/ASADA and will be handled though a tribunal and evidence must simply meet their requirements which may or may not include proof beyond reasonable doubt.

    Manly not troubled by Anti-doping probe (nrl.com)

    Not since the '60s. I really hope George isn't eating chickens that are that old, but given it is KFC, who knows.

    Thoughts on our new players that played tonight?

    I thought Lawrence was fantastic, he hits the line hard and looks for offloads. Good hands too. Would like to see him start alongside Kite with King on the bench. The left edge looked more dangerous than it has in a long time, maybe a combination of a fit Foran and Horo over T-Rex. T-Rex was...

    Gifty debuted at Fullback - One for the historians?

    Choc was the first thing I noticed, Beaver still looks exactly the same. Was also a big fan of Torrens, a great player through a tough period for Manly.

    The "I miss T-Rex" Thread

    T-Rex was rarely the difference between winning and losing. Last year his best (and really his only really good) game was against the Chooks. He destroyed them down the left side but without him we were still going to win by plenty. He had a blinder in the 2nd half against the Cowpats in 2011...

    3-2-1 Vs Broncos

    3 - Matai 2 - DCE 1 - Choc Matai was unbelievable considering he was up against the best performing Bronco. He created opportunities and took advantage of opportunities made. Probably the best game I've seen him play in a couple of years. DCE was quiet in the first half but dominated the...
