Manly Sea Eagles coaches Willie Peters and Dan Ferris in fist fight in The Rocks

[bob dylan]

Trent should fine them $10K each

Anyone see where I am coming from here.... clever.

 

[The '47ers]

Sh*t happens. Big deal.
Who hasn't done something stupid on the ink.

Is that why Dugan, Carney, Pearce and co have so many tatts?!

 

[Shoe1]

Sigh. Expecting a big fine from toddy

 

[Clay]

Atleast someone from Manly is Showing some fight

 

[Ryan]

I wrote to Donny, referencing the fight and said he should put his name forward if a position becomes vacant, and his reply (I swear the guys a legend):


Ha ha, just a boil over! Unfortunate to put yourself there but not an act deserving of crucifixionmy wife just wants me out of the house! Doesn't anybody like happy people at 5:30am?????

Penn has come out and said they could have their contracts torn up if they have been found to have brought the club/game into disrepute.

 

[lsz]

I am in the minority here but it is pretty average and not something that is a good look for the club.

 

[HappilyManly]

Peters is 5foot 5inches, so he was somewhat optimistic

Maybe Manly's Mad Monday went through to Wednesday

 

[mave]

Sounds like a good way for Penn to save some $$

 

[niccipops]

Surprised by the reaction tbh. I dont see anything funny about it. Plenty of bad things happen in alcohol related violence. Its not funny or to be tolerated. Both should be sacked.

I agree with you about alcohol related violence but this story is just so random it's funny. Sounds like no one was hurt and the fellas have just made tools of themselves in a new coaching tradition called Wild Wednesday.

 

[Crusher_Cleal]

Only at Manly..

@readingtheplay

So the person who's said to have thrown the first punch and name is on the police report doesn't get mentioned in the media reports... Gold

Both will get the bullet, club gets on high horse and comes out of it clean

Does Paul wheelan still own that pub the orient? I always thought it strange that a former police minister would own a pub at the rocks.

The Rocks Police station was directly across the road.
Now it's some chocoate cafe

True but most reasonable people know it is not the clubs fault. They cant control if a couple of work colleagues get into a blue on the sauce.

one of the reasons I quit long ago ... used to make me do stupid things

 

[HappilyManly]

Looks like Ferris will be the scapegoat

Even if Peters and Ferris keep their jobs, it is unknown whether they could work alongside each in 2018. Peters is well-liked and respected at the club.

If that's the worst fallout we get from Mad Monday I'll take it.
Unfortunately assistant coaches are dime a dozen, so maybe doesn't look good for Willie.

Probably the first time Willie has been exposed all year:

Are you free Willie?

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Ferris called Peters a **** and Willie thought he was talking about him

Willie Peterides.
