    I dont think yesterday was a fluke.throw de gois and gidley into that side and they will win plenty with a good injury run.people forget how good they were last year before smith debacle. i got ridiculed by my mates for the last couple of weeks for saying they'll go good but they play a great...

    News: Give Foran half a chance

    what amazes me is that the same blokes who laud des about winning GF's by record scores and is thus not open to criticism by us  because of this  are the same blokes who crucified the captain and 2008 dally m winner ever since he got to manly.he  actually ran out onto the field that night as...

    yes.it is strange. he was a great player and  is a great coach with all the attributes.players respect him greatly. he is a very conservative and humble guy by nature and this probably flows into his thoughts towards more risky options.

    In reply to Cand C 'S what has hodkinson done? answer: everything asked of him was the best of breed as a junior and rated best half in the country.rated a much better prospect than mortimer at parramatta until a diabolical injury(dislocated knee,hamstring torn off bone) that put him out for a...

    im not negative about year,just worried early on.i know the plan is to have hodkinson play eventually  but why wait. work this out. parra pick mortimer.turns out to be the next big thing and leads them to GF from last with a reserve grade halfback from manly by his side. we have no...

    kicking?

    i might be missing something but our kicking game looks ridiculous.Lyon goes ok but what then?ballin kicks occasionally from dummy half and bailey is ordinary  at best.foran was recently quoted as saying he is working hard on his kicking as he has never been a specialist kicker before. orford...

    Team for Monday announced

    what a joke. marshall,tuquiri, lawrence,tuaki and co will slaughter williams.this isnt pomeroy,stapleton  and simmons he is up against.which second rower is the lucky one to be defending next to him i wonder. and how does bailey get a run in the 13. tiges win this one im afraid.
