    RLW Top 100 players 2015

    It's like the Max music countdowns. If they were honest, you'd only ever have the Beatles, Elvis or Nirvana at number 1, depending on the category. But they like to stir people up and get them talking. I'd say with this list, as well as stirring us up, they're pushing agendas of those seen as...

    Hiku named at 5/8

    Hiku came to us as a 5/8. That's his true position. Manly saw him as a centre. The wing and fullback stuff was only ever hole plugging and problem solving. Some people have short memories.

    Are You Renewing Your Membership?

    It's been talked about before. It's a demographics thing. The style of person resident on the Northern Beaches is different to the South and West. Norths had this problem to an even greater extent than we do. The North Shore resident is a different beast again. Sport takes a different place...

    Something big is brewing

    What do you mean by that? Hiring an outsider as coach; Not predictably Manly. Releasing star local junior; Not predictably Manly. There's no high horse here. I conceded that they may have a plan. It may work. All I'm saying is that using Manly of the past to predict the behaviour of current...

    Manly crowds over the years

    Well,I guess a start is asking who on here used to go but has stopped at some point in the last 5 years? And I don't mean people who've moved overseas or had a baby or now have an inflexible job. I mean who of you who are in the same situation and have the same ability to get to games as you...

    Something big is brewing

    You're thinking that this is Manly and Manly operate the Manly way. That isn;t the case. Anyone that knew the Manly way and did things that were predictably Manly is gone. This is new people with no connection to the way things were and always have been, other than Bozo and Zorba. And they don't...

    RLW just keeps getting better.....

    All those Manly and Roosters players in there must've been pretty good at premiership dodging. Not too many play for a substantial amount of time at either club without accidentally picking up a win.

    Captain's Challenge: success or not?

    The attacking team should also be able to call "no try, let's get on with it" as long as the ref is comfortable with the restart procedure. Like in a held up type situation. Of course you wouldn;t let them call an air swing and believe them as it might be a knock on but even if it saves only 2...

    Captain's Challenge: success or not?

    Yep, as long as there's no video ref interjection other than trys. You just go with the onfield decision unless the ref makes a howler. Some teams will be greedy and get punished for their stupidity, but bad luck. We should just do away with scrums and take the word Rugby out of the name of the...

    New Logo 2016

    Agreed mate. I've been saying that for years. That simple bit of marketing has worked wonders for the bunnies. We are lucky enough to have a similar thing available to us and the club is too stupid to capitalise. Maybe with this years heritage jersey and next years logo they're actually going to...

    Two interstate home games in 2016

    Parra in Darwin. Penriff in Bathurst. Dogs go to Wellington I think. Souffs go to Perth. We should claim Adelaide.

    Grand Final in Brisbane?

    The Bongos came into the NSWRL comp in 1988. You can't be invited into someone's house, pay some board, but the odd case of beer then claim it's your house.

    Nice Stadium is Gosford

    If it's not the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles in maroon and white, it's not my club. The Northern Eagles killed my club so I hated them as much as all those other clubs trying to kill my club. I'll have the same opinion of the Central Coast Sea Eagles if that's what they become. Darth Vader to our...

    Nice Stadium is Gosford

    The stadium at Gosford is an insult to proper, traditional Rugby League supporters. But that's irrelevant. It's the home of the Beagles. If they take us out of Sydney, I stop supporting. I am not from the Central Coast. What possible reason would i have to support a Central Coast team? I don't...

    Bulldogs disgraced on and off the field ... AGAIN!

    Maybe the averages in some periods but most of the massive ground records were set back in the old days. People on the sidelines, on rooves, in trees. There were people watching, in huge numbers.

    Bulldogs disgraced on and off the field ... AGAIN!

    I think it's being over kiddie oriented at the moment. When you look at what the hill was just ten years ago compared to how policed it is now it's a huge difference. Then you hear stories from the old boys of what it was like in the 60's and 70's, it was the wild west. The crowds were bigger in...

    Abbott can now focus on fixing Brookie Oval....

    To skew the debate in another direction, because you've stumbled on a massive issue of mine here. As a conservative, you need to move away from the "independant thought" line of attack. The most mainstream, easily accessable opinions that require the least amount of intellectual digestion...

    Bulldogs disgraced on and off the field ... AGAIN!

    Souffs are just as bad. There was a fight that I didn't start in our bay at the SCG last year. If you surveyed the fans a lot of their opinions would be based on what they see in the media more than personal experience. Football fans on the whole are morons. Look at the treatment we receive...

    Bulldogs disgraced on and off the field ... AGAIN!

    So you're saying you're going in with predetermined biases based on something that happened 14 years ago? I think you'd be able to find examples of Parra fans ripping **** up if it was reported that way. If it's bulldog fans, the club gets mentioned, if it's Parra fans, the reports wouldn't...

    Bulldogs disgraced on and off the field ... AGAIN!

    You don't think Parra and Saints have bigger than necessary dickhead problems? I'd say they're 2 of the worst. Wests aren't as bad, they're more on the normal side of it. But Rugby League certainly attracts the ****wits at every club, us included.
