    The Myth that is the top 4

    The thing the new system does is ensure home games each week for the team in the top 4. Manly (or any team) could win the minor premiership by 20 points but lose to 8 in the first week and then play team 5, 6. or 7 in Auckland, Melbourne or Townsville the next week. Now if someone in the Top 4...

    Crowd and our ground

    The crowd today felt like 18000 for sure. It was pretty full in most places around the ground, though there were empty seats in most of the stands in small pockets.

    Peter Peters claims seat on Manly Sea Eagles board

    It is a legal offense for a board member to act in a manner contrary to the interests of the organization, Having sat on a board myself and having financial liability for a multi- million organization I know that, for Zorba or anyone else to leak stuff to the media, is illegal. Would have to be...

    Jorge Taufa

    A few problems with your theory. Jorge has been playing first grade for over 10 weeks and Oldfield was signed by the Roosters last week. Jorge goes alright for mine, though he is not great at getting in the air. Whare showed him how to do it today, though some people just can't jump as high as...

    ABC Radio National and the Stewart case

    I for one am very grateful for DSM5 and others who went to court and reported the proceedings on this site. The whole case stunk from the start and sadly Brett copped bad treatment to sell millions of papers for News Limited. He also paid for the 'snow-job' that was the Coffs Harbour...

    A suggestion to the club

    Where is Byso and all his photos? I must say that my one gripe about Brookie is that you don't hear one word of anything on the hill anymore. A few years back the speakers used got in the way of spectators but the current set-up is good at the ends and on the Jane Try side but poor on the...

    3 images from last nights game

    What wasn't shown was that Tafua was pushed over as he stood up to play the ball as well. That should have been 10 in the bin, though obviously the ref was playing advantage. I was opposite this on the other side and was furious that the ref gave them so much more leniency in this situation and...

    Is it East Sydney or East Auckland?

    I went and saw Northern Suburbs first grade colts Rugby play Penrith at the weekend. The Penrith side was 13 Pacific Islanders and the Norths side had none. Most of the Penrith side were from the Blacktown Rugby Club. They were much bigger, stronger and very physical but even on a muddy day, the...

    Is it East Sydney or East Auckland?

    In Western Sydney, there has been a boom in AFL and a decrease in caucasians playing Rugby League and Rugby Union. Much of this has to do with the earlier maturing of Pacific Islander players, who love their footy. More slightly build players are moving to AFL as a result. That is why there is...

    News: Sins of the Father

    I think it is on public record that News Limited paid an amount of money to Brett Stewart based on what was incorrectly reported. My memory says it was around $200 k. If that is correct, News got off lightly as the article in Good Weekend indicates that the source was the father, who is...

    MERGED: Board Issues Mega Thread

    I wish we didn't have to read the spin in the later part of this thread and had some straight answers. Noone has told me a good reason why the Football Club reps have repeatedly voted against the Penns. (Apart from the alleged childish tantrums.) Max still has fingers in the pie and there is a...

    MERGED: Board Issues Mega Thread

    RE: BOARD ISSUES - Our Right to Know Vidmar's post suggests that this thing is a power struggle between the Penns and others. Max's Facebook comments indicate the same, using Zorba as an example of a mouthpiece of the Penns. Other stupid people seem to be blaming Perry, though that is stupid...

    Brett stewart

    Brett has played well consistently with a whole heap of good and also crap halves, at both Manly and at the top level. Slater has had Cronk as his main man and they have played together for eons together. That is what makes them so potent - their combination and understanding. We are comparing...

    A couple of non-Manly rumours

    I love it how you are different. Players don't reveal stuff to fans but YOU KNOW. The HUBRIS is enormous!!!!

    Rumoured and Confirmed Signings

    RE: Rumoured and Confirmed Signings I read here when many didn't want Kennedy, Kite, Lyon or Orford. All starred at Manly. I will trust the recruiters who know that a good player will be loved, once he is wearing the maroon and white.

    Crowd Tonight

    Brookie is a hard ground to get to on a Friday unless you live on the Peninsula. Traffic getting there from the West is shocking whichever way you go. Love my Sunday arvos at Brookie. Up for the Storm though.
