    Cringe-worthy English

    RE: Just a reminder. We are great Yes I did know that, but despite its widespread usage "haitch" is still regarded as nonstandard English ie. there is no dictionary anywhere that recognises it as a legitimate pronunciation, no matter how many Irish Catholics say it that way...

    Cringe-worthy English

    RE: Just a reminder. We are great You may "talk proper", but like most people nowadays you don't know how to use apostrophes correctly ("the John's brothers"...really!). And "he only used it at least ten times" is a grammatical disaster! :p [hr] Or "should of" instead of "should have"...

    Delmege lashes greedy Hasler

    Well said Uncle Max! :) Hasler showed he has not one shred of loyalty or integrity in the way he left, and then tried to shaft the club by enticing away most of the coaching staff and trying to tempt the players away as well. I met Uncle Max on Grand Final night last year at the Leagues Club...

    Isn't our alternate jersey up for renewal?

    I don't know about a "new" home jersey...every time a change is due, I keep hoping that we will go back to the "classic" Manly jersey. You know, the famous one with the twin sets of hoops that we wore between 1968 and 1992. That will always be the REAL Manly jersey for me. And if we ever DO...

    C'mon Souths

    There is no way on Earth I could EVER cheer for Souths, not under ANY circumstances! You see, the Rabbitohs are my first and oldest footballing grudge, dating back 42 years to when I first started watching the game. The first GF I saw was the infamous 1970 clash between Manly and Souths...the...

    What a Disgrace !

    RE: What a Disrgace ! "Still"? I NEVER cheered for the Northern Eagles. While all that was going on, I stopped following the game altogether... :@

    NRL DON"T want a Manly repeat this year.

    And that's nothing new...the Warriors' first try in last year's GF was from a forward pass, although no-one seemed to pick it up at the time. The commentators on both Ch 9 and Foxtel all missed it, although everyone at Manly Leagues (where I was) yelled "FORWARD" in unison. I wonder if the...

    Kaspersky Lab will continue as the club's major sponsor for the next three years.

    Well, I think by now we have all realised what a joke the Telegraph is...they NEVER get it right about us in the end lol! In fact, haven't you noticed how there is always someone trying to do us down, criticising every single thing we do no matter WHAT it is, trying to will us out of...

    Logo Ownership?

    Well I heard it directly from Peter Peters at the time that the club wanted to revert to its traditional "hoops" jersey, but was prevented from doing so by the NRL, and that the club could do nothing about it because the NRL now owned all clubs' jersey designs. And I can't help but wonder...

    Logo Ownership?

    It isn't just the logo. I used to wonder just how much of the clubs' identities had to be signed over to the NRL's ownership in order to qualify for a licence to take part in that competition when it started in 1998. Remember when Manly were refused permission to revert to their traditional (and...

    Fellow infidels we are all going to hell

    I don't think only Muslim extremists feel that way about United lol! :D [hr] Wait...Salford City RL began in 1889? But rugby league itself only began in 1895...remember, the 1995 World Cup was the centenary tournament. Was Salford a rugby union club originally?

    2007 Grand Final

    Yes, despite all of the NRL's posturing about coming down hard on the Storm, in actual fact they let them off quite lightly. Really, the Storm should have been expelled from the NRL altogether and the club closed down over that scandal...and had they not been the NRL's pet club - owned by News...

    2007 Grand Final

    I agree with this... ...but not this. In order to say we "lost", somebody else has to have "won". The Melbourne Storm had the 2007 Premiership stripped from them...so they are now not recognised as having "won" it at all. So it is grossly unfair to say that we "lost", in a contest that...

    2007 Grand Final

    LOL! Yeah, that's right. But re 2007, I just think it is unfair that we are still considered to have "lost" that game when we weren't really given a fair chance to win it, as the other team was cheating. Why should they be credited with having "won" it at all? :huh:
