    Extraordinary General Meeting of MWDRLFC

    Would have to agree. Get it over with quickly. We need this situation stable and sorted out well in advance of the footie season beginning - every month is vital. The longer the whole thing drags out the more it will hurt Manly as the media plays it up for their own benefit (meaning of...

    Manly Sea Eagles Chairman Scott Penn has made a bid to wrest sole control of the club

    Good post above mcatt - agree Seems like its all come together CC in a perfect storm - incl the great GF win :D Quantum's financial problems are probably because of the solar power section of their business biting the dust when Barry O Farrell changed the solar rebate scheme as he came to...

    We should all get back to the celebrations

    Bloody good point realfortynil!! What an incredible achievement by the Manly team and coaching staff - after a great season that many of us began remarking early on had the 'smell of 2008' about it. What a great season!! I have been amazed by the large numbers of cars still proudly...

    Zorba - Manly will remain a force

    Yes excellent article from Zorba and some light footwork for obvious reasons on the Will Hopoate issue. A good many people would be feeling let down to say the very least regarding how William's deal was done and announced, and by what he was still telling his team mates and the media even...

    My two cents on how we lost Des

    BREAKING NEWS : Toovey Appointed for 2013

    Yes Beaver is a director in a mortgage/financial education company in Brookvale In fact the company even has "Menzies Financial ...er....do dahs" as its name, walked past it tonight but can't remember the full name. Yes Beaver would be GREAT to have on the board, if apart from nothing...

    Cliffy, the Beaver & BK

    Gonna be a bit of a commute for BK from Ipswich to brookie every weekend. Then again would be great if he wanted to open up a fruit shop in brookvale! Maybe BK had just had a long hard day when he said that after the Zorba sacking....

    Today's Manly Daily

    In the article above notice how Perry is strongly positive about keeping Des for 2012 and gives all the reasons why it will be successful, and how they must have better communication etc However Bob Reilly has a negative evasive tone and gives the reasons why Des may be replaced for 2012. To...

    BREAKING NEWS : Toovey Appointed for 2013

    Thanks BE - should hopefully give stability. Des is a thorough professional and will give it everything in 2012 for back to back GFs. He deserves the respect of seeing out the 2012 season - it might have been too much too soon to have Tooves as coach for 2012. Now its time to sort out the...

    You got the points I was struggling for Dan! Well said

    Noel Crusher Cleal

    If we have Toovey plus Zorba in the Manly club it'll make it look more like Manly should, and probably is our best chance to give incentive for Crusher plus support staff and players to consider staying. If its the same board that shafted Des (and Zorba is out of the club), then Crusher and...

    It Has Started

    Its too subjective KPI's for such a job - and how do you rate the effect of injuries or suspensions as we saw at key times during 2009-2010 KPI's are the sort of thing that an accountant would have wanted for Des (I'm thinking Peter Spray but might be wrong about him). These sort of...

    Zorba

    Very good point Kiwi and that was self centred petulant behaviour from Zorba to enflame the situation only days away from the first finals game. As if his own issues were much larger than the Manly team and club. If he wasn't such a hotheadf he could have waited a few weeks to sort the situation...

    Bozo slams Sea Eagles board, backs Geoff Toovey

    If this was true then it is a big mistake by David Perry. Perry is still on his training wheel as a COO/CEO and should have been cooler under pressure. Sure Zorba was childish and petulant in bringing it to a head but Perry should have been thinking of the long term picture and should not...

    Bulldogs

    Undoubtedly there was a lot of heated emotion anger and disappointment surrounding the weeks of Des' decision. Often we make bad decisions in a pressure cooker time of high emotion and later live to regret that. One thing that I don't think Des has fully appreciated is what a wrecker he will...

    Wake up to yourselves

    Good post er08 We know that Des is a real professional so in 2012 will put everything into making the season thoroughly successful. Hopefully as others have hinted, things might change over the next months on the footbal club and the board side of things.

    Zorba want to be on the board

    We can't abandon our links with past experience - I don't know Zorba perosnally and have issues with his old school media style and many gaffes over the years, but having him on the board seems like a good way forward and would solidify things with Penn. But if Zorba is just there to settle...
