    Brett Stewart - SOO 1

    He just keeps on getting better and better. Simply outstanding tonight - scored one, set up another, and could have easily scored instead of LaRapist. Excellent match - completely outduelled Slater.

    Goal kicking woes

    Watched us beat the Dogs last weekend and a couple of other games too from London (thank you Setanta Sports!) - why is Ox still kicking? I do not have any confidence in him at all - it's only a matter of time until we lose a game due this. Why isn't Lyon kicking???!!! Didn't he kick a zillion...

    The game yesterday

    Guys, being in London, I missed it - was the Beaver to 5/8 move a success? Should Lyon remain in the Centres?

    NRL Grand Final in Paris, and contrasting GF coaching/playing strategies

    I watched the GF in Paris at Cafe Oz (in attendance with a Parisian bird, but that's another story...). There were quite a lot of Manly fans in there actually, was great to see. Big ups to the 2 guys who painted their shirts with Manly names and colours, if you guys are out there. At half-time i...

    Backrow depth

    Crusher signing on for 2008. Whilst I agree that a backrow of Choc, Stewie and Beaver is up there with any in the Comp, I'm a little concerned that we still need more cover in this position to compete in the big games. I still think we are are one dynamic backrower short (and no, as much as I...

    Farewell from Crusher

    Well, I'm off next week to do a few mths travelling in Europe and then to work in London for a while. Of all the years to do it, I leave in the year we can win it all! That's what struggling through through the CA for a few years gets you. Hopefully I can get to watch the Grand Final somewhere...

    Spud Carroll on the Footy Show

    Anyone watch last night? They did this Rivalries of yesteryear segment. They spent heaps talking about Chief and Spud's famous rivalry in the '90's. Classic stuff, those two went at it hammer and tong. But then they were classy enought to shake hands wholeheartedly last night and showed there...

    Lyon is too slow - this is a concern

    Did anyone see when Flanagan made that break how Lyon basically half-heartedly gave chase to try and cover Flanagan's supporting player? He basically gave up. This meant that Stewy had to cover BOTH players, which meant the try was scored. All Lyon had to do was shadow the support player, but he...

    Archer you Wan*ker

    If this guy is ever allowed to referee 1st Grade again I'll eat my hat. 3 deliberate fouls by the Dogs in the 2nd Half, and not one goes to the Bin. Cleal nearly takes off Orford's head with a late cheap shot, and Archer misses it originally. Their players lying all over ours in the tackles. And...

    Bloody Hell Des - Enough is Enough

    Can someone please explain this to me: last night we had on of the world's best Centers playing at 5/8, we had one of the world's best Backrowers playing at Center, and we had a pretty darn good Half playing at Hooker. Is it just me or something not right here? As soon as Matai was ruled out it...

    Brett Stewart

    Have you guys noticed how much publicity Stewart has been getting from the media since he broke into SOO? He was on NRL on Fox last night, and has been constantly in the papers too. Great publicity for himself as well as the Club - he handles himself off the field very well, which puts the Club...

    Dogs

    Big game this Friday. The Dogs scum will be desperate and will throw everything they have at us. The key, as always, will be the Forwards battle. If we get on top here then we will run all over them, coz their backs have absolutely nothing.

    Beaver's record

    Beaver's record The 310 games - am i right to say that this INCLUDES the Northern Eagles games he played?

    Well done Stewart and Bell - Lyon give yourself an uppercut

    Stewart - 7.5/10. Good try, great under the high ball, ran it back hard. Could have joined the line a little more when we were attacking I reckon to give Kimmorley more options. Bell - 7/10. Great try, solid in defence. Lyon - 2/10. 1 for his conversion, and 1 for some good defence. Deadset...

    Tipping and Ladder

    Bloody hell - you can't rely on the Warriors for anything these days. Melbourne missing about a thousand players, and those soft Warriors still can't get up. Back to second again.....

    Salary Cap Concessions - Burns

    This whole Burns saga has left a real sour taste in my mouth - and it's not from the Yum-Cha I just ate in Chinatown. Why doesn't the NRL introduce salary cap concessions for Clubs who have introduced a player into 1st Grade, like we have with Burns? We've developed him over the last 2 yrs, and...

    Mid Season Signings

    Do you think the NRL is becoming too much like professional American sports with all these mid-season signings and tradings? The NBA is more like a business these days than a sport with all their mid-season trades and zero loyalty. Do you think all this mid-season stuff in the NRL is a good thing?

    Give-me-morley as a Northern Eagles signing

    Seeing Kimmorley is back in the spotlight, I thought I'd ask you this question: how did you react at the time when it was announced that Kimmorley, a recent Premiership winning halfback with the Storm at the time, had just been signed by the Northern Eagles? I remember the exact moment when I...

    Mateo

    Geez, too bad we didn't get to sign this guy. Did anyone see him last night? He was sensational. Scored 2 tries, and set up another one. What a player. BTW Cannings has just signed a 3 yr deal with the Titans.

    We need to sort this out NOW! Best options:

    OK guys, by the sound of it both Matai and Burns were unavailable, but I think from this week on for the rest of the year, we must do NO more chopping and changing. It is very obvious to me what our top team is, and here it is: 1. Stewart 2. Robbo 3. Bell 4. Lyon 5. Hicks 6. Burns 7. Orford...
