    Who's going to Telstra for the Dogs game

    Who's going to Telstra for the Dogs game I'm not going. If we win I'd get killed. If we lose I'd probably just get beaten up. Don't like either option.

    Interesting Profile on Beaver's Partner

    Interesting Profile on Beaver's Partner It's a good series, well worth a read. So far they have done Ben Kennedy's wife, Des's wife and now Beaver's partner. Gives an interesting and different perspective on the players (and coach). Ot the normal footy stuff. I belive there are more to...

    Pat Wilson resigns

    Joe Cross announced it today. Manly hope to have a new CEO by July. Gone back to Rugby, as predicted.

    centre spot...

    Na you're right, probably not. Sometimes good but not consistent.

    I wish we would just Shut Up

    I thought that the referee over-refereed the game but it was the same for both sides. In fact I thought we got some lucky calls. Dunley deserved the sin bin. Dumb play.

    Dunley must go.

    What's the story with Des and Dunley. The guy was shocking today, yet instead of being taken off he is rewarded with even more game time. Monaghan was looking gtreat at hooker when he was on. Great 40/20, good defence and was providing a smooth link with our outside backs. On comes...

    unconfirmed reports

    Can't see anything on Groom on the MSE site. Maybe it's been deleted. Groom is on a scholarship with Manly this year so surely he wouldn't leave. Let's hope not a he is a star of the future. I thought he was out of the Jersey Flegg side because of injury.

    centre spot...

    None of the outside backs in Premier League have shown the consistency to indicate they are genuine first grade contenders. Meaney was ok last week, but does not perform to that standard regularly. Quite frankly we are in big trouble with our depth in the centres. If you drop Matai we...

    Premier League

    Premier League was an extraordinary game. After 40 minutes Manly were 38 nil. They were playing absolutely superbly and looked like runnning up a cricket score. Then suddenly there defence completely collapsed. Newtown (the Roosters) scores 28 unapposed easy points in 25 minutes. A try...

    birds eye view.

    Hicks and Bell in the centres. Burns at 5/8. Monaghan at hooker. Robertson and Stephenson on the wings. King and Dunley in Premiers. Cuthbertson on the bench. Now wer're looking dangerous, in my opinion.

    Matabele Ratings vs Cowgirls

    I was amazed at King's inbability to move laterally in defence. Players simply run a half a metre to his left or right and he is left grasping. Really quite embarassing.

    The Coach's Comment

    The Coach's Comment Des chose to make most of the personnel changes. With Matai out he could have simply played Stephenson in the centres and brought up Robinson. Instead we had our No 6 playing No 9, and on the bench. Our No 12 playing No 4. Our No 14 playing No 6. Our No 15 playing...

    Well done Des

    Menzies had the worst game I have ever seen him play. He no longer has the speed to play in the centres. Ridiculous when you consider we had a centre on the bench (Stephenson) and a centre on the wing (Hicks). Playing Menzies in the centres is the same sort of conservative thinking that...

    Don't expect changes

    Don't expect changes Yes , we can all relax.

    Don't expect changes

    Don't expect changes The only short to mid term change that Des will consider in the next few months is moving Burns to the 5/8 position full time. Monas will then be hooker and Dunley to the bench. Dunley willl then come on and replace Monaghan during the game. It won't happen immediately...

    Waiting for team announcement !

    Des will pick the same team as last week.

    [poll] Who should play 5/8?

    Witt was quite enterprising in attack, and of course his goal kicking was good. His defence was found wanting on a few occasions. Forwards ran at him and knocked him out of the way. seems to go to high.

    Beer In Cans @ Brooky

    All of these bad experiences should be passed on to the club. Officials were very concerned about the alcohol situation.

    this weeks team should be

    Never thought of Witt as hooker. Might be interesting. Adds a good kicking option. He is also surprisingly strong. Just needs to have the confidence to take the line on more. Have to brush up a bit on his 'front on' defence. Couldn't be any worse than Dunley's.
