Seriously though...what the retarded NRL don't realise, is that with Brad Arthur going to The Eels, he coerced many Manly players to leave our shores with offers we couldn't match, because they didn't care about cheating the cap by over 1M dollars?

How is Manly compensated for these loss of players (some of which are still key figures in that grub of a team)? Nada - zilch.

If Parramatta win anything soon, the idea should be to summon a roster while cheating the cap fully (as other teams couldn't match offers), shed / release the crap players you don't need when found out, a year later, start winning titles.
The less we speak about Parra on our forum, the happier I will be
Helloooooo NRL.

 

[Wombat Legacy]

My main beef - Gutherson. No way they should or could have afforded him. imagine Gutherson / Walker in our centres. Gower is actually doing quite well for them. Foran / Choc are no longer part of their make-up, but shouldn't have been to start with.

Grubbiest team in the NRL. I hope The Chooks beat them, and that's saying something.

The way they amassed their current roster - was through cheating - so anything they claim as a win or victory is moot for mine, and is doing the overall NRL a disservice.

Manly should get Salary Cap dispensation for all players acquired from us while they were cheating - **** them. Makes my blood boil.

Can't believe they let Gutherson go, he is going to be a special player

Any injuries?

Watching from here in Auckland, Walker was icing his calf after the first game. Not sure if he went back on or the commentators said anything about it.

 

[pjayz]

Haha.
I hope Uate and Sironen are prepared for a long year of whipping by the geniuses on Silvertails.

You guys have started the bitchfest nice and early anyway, so congrats on that.

Agreed, yet siro got a great ball away around an opposing player showing great skill and showed good strength for his try. Yes he missed a tackle so did everyone else out there.

 

[pjayz]

Kelly looked quick???? A friend of mine commented, that he looked like he was running in mud. Too small for NRL & surprisingly slow.

Too small? He isn't small at all he is quite solid.

 

[Fluffy]

If some of you are this negative when a bunch of fringe first graders win in a pre season hit and giggle I hate to think what the season proper is going to be like...

I am tipping it wont be good

 

[mbe]

So much for us being the rank outsiders, we are definitely in the next round which an achievement in itself. Go Manly.

 

[Loobs]

I am tipping it wont be good

Please stop - we're trying to reduce the influence of gambling in these forums

 

[ricardo]

Jono Wright injured? He cantered to the Warriors first try scorer at one third pace? Or was that a nod to his old team

 

[pjayz]

Who was the young dragon who was lightning quick? Or was there two?

Jai field

Too small? He isn't small at all he is quite solid.

I take back what I said about his speed, he showed good speed on that try he scored. But he's much smaller than say...Uate & Jorge.

Are you sure you aren't thinking of schuster? My mate and I were commenting on how solid he was for a speedster.

 

[nightster]

Unless we beat Parra in the next game.

And to beat Parra we will need to throw the ball around a lot more and try to get the most out of our speedsters.

They might as well take some chances against the Eels.

Nothing to lose in that game apart from the opportunity to avoid playing the Cowboys in our quarter final.

we are going to have to improve radically in defence to beat them

 

[ricardo]

Also can we stop the whining about Gutherson? Please??

Aka "mullane craig"

Also can we stop the whining about Gutherson? Please??

No. 4 things to hate
1. Ferris in a knight's jersey
2. Gifty in a souths jersey
3. Hiku in a panthers jersey
4. Gutherson in that loser jersey

 

[Danly Manly]

Yes, all of the above.

5. Living in the past....

What I liked in the mid to late 2000's was Our players didnt seem to leave and play against us. They went to England.
