    One thing that was unforgivable

    they were superbly placed kicks, against our left side which is far from what it should be, personell wise. I am guesing but i imagine the penalty count was something like 6-1, they completed at about 90%, had 60%+ posession rate, &0% in our half and 40 tackles in our 20 compred to our 10 in...

    "Would you have made it" - WTF???

    we werent sighted as ballin took that ball. I think he may have juggled the ball and it touched a parra player making it a double knock on, and the ref was joking with ballin

    Supporting a team because of their jersey

    as a 4 year old i started playing footy for the brighton seagulls. One sunday evening i was watching footy on tv with my dad. Manly was one of the teams, i dont recall the other. My dad told me that the manly sea eagles were once known as the seagulls ( i know that that bit of history is in...

    have a serious dislike for both of those clubs even though i did play 2 seasons of A grade at scots a thousand years ago. Brighton seagulls is the club.

    A PLAN TO SAVE BRETT STEWART

    i cant beleive how ignorant some of you people are. Third party sponsorship is about keepinhg players in our code, not our club. Otherwise it would make it impossible to compete with thge likes of brisbane etc, and melbourne woulnt have had to hid etheir payments. There is no doubt ythey had...

    Cherry-Evans denied release by Manly

    reading between the lines....i feel that the terms of his future contract are pretty close to the mark, if not right there. The sticking point is renegotiating his current terms for this year and next. If its true that stewart is going at the end of the year i am sure that the club will fix his...

    Cherry

    It was full page, page 1 of todays rlw. Direct quotes from his manager that a release had been sought and refused. A release was requested because he is only earning about 80k this year which is less than last year because last year also had 3k per game match payments. Obviously kent would ask...

    Cherry

    its obvious what has happened. He asked for a release that he doesnt want, knowing full well that it wont be granted, but he expects that it will put a scare into the club and hopefully result in re-negotited terms for this season and next. Now i am sure if we had room to move we would have. If...

    Brett Stewart to Dragons, a done deal!

    whats so hard to understand. We were able to fit both in because we had them cheap at the start, their earning capacity has increased gradually to the point that we now cant afford both. Ifind it hard to beleive that they would leave Manly for anything less than a 20% increase on what we can...

    Brett Stewart to Dragons, a done deal!

    i think too much is made of this supposed need for the brothers to remain together. It was obviously imprtant when they came to manly. They were 16 and 17 and leaving home. Glenn is now married (possibly to a northern beaches girl) and probably settled in well where he is and Brett is a man in...

    Are Manly supporter’s greedy little pigs? Player value list

    i think a few have been overvalued. I couldnt see clubs parting with more than whare 70 wolfie 180 king 250 ballin 250 kite 250 buhrer 170 and the 20-25 300k and yove probably undervalued lussick. prob closer to 250 that gets yo down to about 5.3m. And that is what it would cost to get them...

    Third Party Sponsorships

    third party sponsorships are not the magic answer people beleive them to be. For the sponsorship to not be included in the cap it must be toatly independent to their playing contract, ie;the sponsorship is not dependent on them playing for manly, it would be in place for the duration of the...

    Suing Hasler ?

    Parra were respected for their stance regarding Lyon when he walked out while under contract, the dogs were applauded for keeping SBW away from any other nrl club for the remainder of his contract, Searle and the titans had everyone on side when Turner tried to backflip on a contract, and saints...

    Matty B a Champion but....

    i think you will find that some of buhrers dummy half runs came when he was playing centre. Matai does it a lot. Most teams try not to overburden their dummyhalf by making him get to every play the ball. When the play the ball is out on the edge it is common for the centre to go into dummy half...

    Parras culture or poor signings??

    i love hating parra as much as anyone but let me ask you these questions. did the need to improve their halves did they get one of the better halves on the market are you really writing off a player for the season on one performance in new colours was sandow the reason for the loss are parra...

    Manly set to re-sign star halves Kieran Foran and Daly Cherry-Evans

    i think the reports of a hasler get out clause are bull****. It may hve been the case prior to this season but i dont think so any more. As i recall he signed a 4 year contract with an option in his favour for saeson 3 and another option in his favoyur for season 4. Those options were already in...

    Stats breakthrough that won Manly the competition

    i have no doubt that these stats would be useful, especially when it comes to poimting out to a player where he needs to improve. If you see it in black and white and in terms of figures and percentages, it will get thgrough to even the most egotistical of boneheads. But i doubt there is any...
