    Warning. RANT

    "always looks chubby and unfit". Could well be talking about me ! A long season ahead, but at least it clears up a few months to get a few things done around the house.

    The Penalites

    I am no referee aficionado, but essentially the more crappier team you are, the more crappier deal you get. Over the last couple of years we have slid to the crappier end of the spectrum and now our chickens or whatever other animal you name have come home to roost.

    Battle of Hastings 1066 Thread

    100% correct and why is a lowlife like Phil "I'll take your money Eddy" Rothfield a respected judge of a person's character. Do your time in the game, earn your respect and then, maybe then, you can start throwing your weight around at your respective club, but it won't happen at 22 years of age !

    Hastings exile and salary cap penalty puts Manly on borderline

    Why couldn't we just have said "look Jackson, everyone in the club thinks you're a d^%$ead, but given our current position, we need you here 'til the end of the year. How 'bout it big fella?" and see if that worked. If that got over the line, we could have then asked for him to improve his haircut !

    1st penalty vs Tigers was not a penalty

    Like the fact that Paul Crawley is the one guy who goes against popular opinion and sticks up for us (eg 2013 GF debacle)

    1st penalty vs Tigers was not a penalty

    The argument would have more credibility if we then busted our guts out for the next 75 minutes and got beat in golden point. Instead we turned it up deluxe !

    Anyone else feel sad

    Agree with your thoughts, but more believe it has something to do with the game itself. The NRL today has all the authenticity of WWF or UFC. Manufactured draws, salary caps, TPA's. It's all just crap to make sure that every club, every supporter gets a turn. I miss the days of dominant teams...

    Uate finished

    Uate the feel good story of 2017, but I am feeling positively sick in the guts today.

    I see improvements...

    All praise to find the positives out of a performance that the Northern Eagles would have been embarrassed off. You champion ! Is Jorge Toufua our equivalent of Semi Radradra ? Better years are behind him, but geez he sums up all that was good about our recent GF sides. Effort on effort and if...

    Round 6,2018, Other games

    How crap is the NRL draw ? With so many Sharks injured I was hoping we would play them soon. Play nearly every other side twice before we play them in round 21. Mickey mouse comp at best.

    Round 6,2018, Other games

    There looks like some serious contenders for dud buys of the year. Cronk, Tedesco, Woods, Foran, Moylan, Dugan, Hodkinson, Bird etc. At least our dud buys are cheap.

    Israel Folau

    Only aware of the bare minimum of facts, but wasn't he asked on Twitter what his thoughts were on his faith's beliefs on gays. Isn't that akin to asking what Anthony Mundine's thoughts were on 911 ? In this day and age where it is cool to be outraged by something / anything, such a question just...

    Round 5, 2018. Other games

    First time I have seen the Bulldogs play this year, but geez Foran looks ordinary.

    Any chance Steve Smith supports Manly??

    For mine, this has been coming for sometime and has been let go unchecked by Lehmann. All this crap about getting involved in a dog fight and what not, for God's sake its cricket! If its fighting and trash talking you are into, join the UFC or WWF or some other combination of three letters. That...

    Brett Kenny

    Phew ! When I saw his name I thought he might have passed over to the other side. Thank God he hasn't. Hated him when he played against us, but cannot deny his freakish ability.

    ROUND 1 other games

    Really like the fact that "the big three " who left the Tigers all lost. Tedesco, Woods and Moses all looking for instant glory may well have done better to stick where they were and try and build something. Should have stayed on the bus !

    so seriously-do refs REALLY decide the result of games

    You look at how a team gets pumped up when they get a 40-20 on the 4th or 5th tackle, but a referee can pretty much deliver the same outcome anytime he wants. Yes I am biased, but everyone (including my mates who hate Manly) knows that the Roosters only stayed in that 2013 GF because of Shayne...

    NSW Govt grants to NRL clubs

    Granted I am not the smartest man going around, but what exactly is a centre of excellence ? Is it a grandstand on the Eastern side of Brookvale, with undercover seating and extra food and beverage outlets? Or is it something out at Narrabeen where talented kiddies can beef up and become as big...

    Jarryd Hayne accused of rape in US civil suit

    Check his mobile phone around that time for any incriminating evidence ! Actually, on second thoughts don't!

    Who Wears Manly Gear In The Off Season?

    Have no choice. My wife takes 15/16's of our wardrobe, so what few clothes I have generally have a Sea Eagle on them. Keep saying I need new clothes , but every birthday, fathers day, christmas etc, diddly squat. Almost embarrassing to go out these days.
