Make Manly Great Again #Hasler2019
Foran is bull****. He's signed for two years.
I wouldn't be surprised if there's some pressure being put on the board.
Imagine the venom
Aimed at the board if we won the comp and DES left I think it would be Safe to say former greats of the club would run a rival ticket

Winging it
I can imagine that there may be reasons why Des would consider this but personally I believe there is more reason for the press to push for a destabilising influence on Manly winning this year. There are parts of the Sea Eagles where it is our team or no team. I'm not saying Des is one and I wouldn't bet an important body part on it but seriously - Des IS Manly and I can't see him moving elsewhere.

Hasn't Des already resigned at least for the next year or two? What about his relationship with the Stewart brothers amongst other players, club officials supporters etc? He strikes me as being a very loyal man.
Surely, someone as smart as him can see it is time for a new media direction .T he club will find something for Zorba. Please Des do not leave. Des is the biggest reason for our success.

Every time there has been a stink at Manly it has come back to the faceless men on the board. It seems that Bob Reilly is the name that keeps coming up. I don't know him, have never met him but the stupidity that goes on reminds me of the Labor Party at its worst.
It seems that the factional warriors are so drunk with their backroom power games that they forget the business of the club is to run a happy and united team that plays good football. It is no illusion that Jack Gibson credited the idea that a Premiership Team starts in the front office.
The timing of Zorba's demise was stupid and it has upset the players who are very loyal to him. The timing of this stuff is even more stupid. Manly is a stable family club but the power of the Football Club is starting to worry me. The lies that were peddled around when Mayer was shafted were just that - lies and the scare campaign from the Football club were total BS. Are we going to be dragged through all that once again, scaring off sponsors, losing fans, dividing the loyalty of club personalities etc.
It is time some reputable club identities put up for election to some of these positions (like Parra have done) and get some people that are not playing out their personal powerplay fantasies.
If we were to lose Des due to the game of these morons, it would be a tragic day in the life of our great club.
PS Could we get about winning the comp rather than this stupid malarkey!!!?

The facile Media Blitz never ceases to amaze me.
Zorba is the one leaving and his delusions of importance to Manly are just that.
Manly are today labeled 'Sea Evils'. Talk about disrespect to an amazingly talented and dedicated group of Players.

The rest is mere white noise.
