    Game Day: Manly V Eels [Round 4, 2025]

    I hope the players are not expecting a 40-point victory. It's wet as hell in Sydney, which will not be conducive to any team running riot. All we have to do is win, and we will have to work hard to get it. If we win by 1, I'll be happy. If Tommy doesn't do a hammy in the first 15 minutes, I'll...

    I mean, you'd have to think that when Politis ejaculates there'd be more than a little blood in it, so it's really a two for the price of one deal.

    All this talk about there being a "race" for his services is hilarious. He has been signed, sealed and delivered, almost certainly with the Roosters. The idea that he's "making up his mind", and that his services will somehow be available to every club in the NRL - with the one massive...

    Agreed. As another thread title suggests, it's best to view this as an opportunity. Not like we have much of a choice anyway. I'm at the point where I'd be pissed if Cherry turned around and said, "Actually, I will be staying at Manly after all…" #nobackflip2.0

    Because you're lying? Because you know exactly where you're going to be playing next year, and how much money you'll be making per week, and how much money you'll be making from your Channel Nine gig and your coaching gig after that and, for reasons which I can't explain, you don't want to come...

    Boo hooing DCE is not the way forward

    Oh, s**t! I forgot Tooves! And Wombat Eadie. And Kosef, and Daniel Gartner, and Brett and Glenn Stewart! And plenty of others! But the point remains:-)

    I get that, frank, and it wouldn't surprise me if the club have handled this with the same level of… professionalism that has dogged us for years. I mean, as soon as Scott Penn becomes involved, you know you're doomed. But ultimately, this is all about Cherry and what he wants. It is not about...

    DCE has always been a polarising figure, TJ, even among Manly fans. I'm not sure I can articulate it completely, but even though I respect him and acknowledge the player he's become during his time here, and don't begrudge him leaving for more money (although I do wish he'd drop the bulls**t...

    Like Gus Gould, who is employed by both Channel Nine and the Bulldogs, wouldn't have an agenda here…

    Mestrov & Penn vs DCE: Who is lying?

    Mate, we can get a wind-up toy to teach our halves to run around in concentric circles for a lot less money than Cherry would want to impart the same knowledge and skills. [I kid, I kid. He doesn't do this quite so much in his old age.]

    Perhaps they were under the impression it was not going to be a bidding war.

    From what you said earlier about third party "top ups", I'm guessing the other club was the Dogs.

    Here we go again. Seriously, if any player - any player - doesn't want to be at the club, the door's that way. If you want to be a one-club player, great. If you don't, that's fine as well. But don't insult everyone with "I'm not staying at Manly, but I'm not sure whether I'll play on or not -...

    Pretty sure "He will wait until later in the season before deciding whether to seek a contract elsewhere to play on in 2026" = he's already signed with the Roosters.

    6 Again .. each teams numbers ..

    This is still my biggest problem with the NRL's continuing "Six Again!" mania: it is just so open to abuse and manipulation. NRL refs have always been able to influence the outcome of a game (usually by incompetence), but the ability to yell out "Six again!" for any reason they fancy, without...

    Post-Game Discussion Manly V Raiders [Round 3, 2025]

    With you 100%, mosto. I said before the game that if things went our way we could end up with a big win. I just didn't expect everything to go our way! The next step for us is to be able to win when things are going against us. But I do want to add that I think L'il Hoppa plays well above his...
