After a few days of getting hammered, it’s nice to see.
- I think it's time to back off Brookie Oval.
Yes, we are all acutely aware the ground is old, out-dated with a dubious playing surface.
On Saturday, Manly young gun Luke Metcalf did an ACL in the ISP game while an hour later, Roosters champion Brett Morris did an MCL and will be out for between one to three weeks.
But let's deliver some clarity around the argument.
The NRL has approved Brookvale as a playing venue and an independent report - from Australia's leading ground assessors Labosport - also gave Lottoland a flying pass mark.
Work starts soon on a centre of excellence which will include a 3000-seat undercover grandstand at Brookvale.
Manly isn't going anywhere. Brookvale is here to stay.
