    Game Day: Manly v Storm [Round 7, 2023]

    I genuinely hope Sharon has a blinder off the bench today, and brings some massive spark to the pack when he gets onto the field. Result today doesn't matter - it is the effort that matters. If we turn up, rip in, have a red hot go and play to potential, then I will be happy. No turnstiles...

    What is the new version of 13+?

    I personally have no problem with the game being considered content/entertainment. I do have a problem with pre-determined results etc.... so I guess I just don't want to see it turn into WWE. Otherwise we may as well just give up now, as it doens't really matter! I much prefer to see good...

    What is the new version of 13+?

    Credit to @Mark from Brisbane as he raised this in another thread - but I genuinely think it is worth a seperate conversation. When I was a young lad, is used to spend $5 here or there having a punt on the footy. I would often look at which games I felt would be 'close' vs which games would be...

    Mestrov: 'Hey Seibs - two of our young lads have asked for a release because their manager is a muppet. Its a shame, but we can't match the offer, and we need to let them go..... BUT - there is the possibility that we may be able to do a deal where we at least realise some 'upside'. The other...

    Optimist/Pessimist pulse .. UPDATE

    We lost two blokes who have barely a first grade minute between them.... and all of a sudden the sky is falling in! @:D Yikes - some people just sway in the breeze We haven't lost a game in almost 6 months.... what's there to be pessimistic about?

    NRL to expand to a 20 team comp ?

    I couldn't agree with you more. So - I live in Inner Melbourne (but went to School at St Augustine's across the road from the hallowed Brookie).... I have a 5 year old, a 3 year old and a 1 year old. My 5 year old is a giant (120cm, 26kg, and LOVES competition) and so we are looking into...

    Club News 2023

    100% agree..... But I also have to say - someone HIRED him..... do we give old mate Penn a little bit of credit, or put it down to good luck?

    Aloiai v Kent

    Disclaimer - I am not a fan of Josh based on the way I feel he used his personal influence and belief to undermine our club last year at a time where we needed cooler heads to prevail (you may disagree - but thats fine) having said that.... I admire anyone who is willing to fight for the rights...

    Who's your go to hero ...

    All time: A. Johns. C Lyons from a Manly perspctive Current team: DCE. Despite everyones hatred of the guy, hes pretty bloody good in a clutch final minute (albeit he is great on the old field goal). And Tom - obviously.

    NRL, AFL on collision course with governments over betting ads

    I actually think we are entering a really interesting period in terms of advertising revenue. FWIW I abhore gambling advertising in mainstream media and for sporting events. I am ABSOLUTELY in favour of grown adults making their own choices and doing what they want to have fun..... but the...

    Memo: Manly

    No worries - we can agree to disagree. I hold my footy club to a higher standard than just winning premierships.... I think Manly means more than winning. Its about how we treat people, how we behave, and how we represent our local community/area. But I have always held this line - this is why I...

    Memo: Manly

    Poorly written article, misdirected criticism - but there is an underlying truth and subtext.... We stood on the precipice of greatness. The eyes of the world were turned our way (and i am afraid to say, that leads to marketing $$$ - which we BADLY need). And in our moment of triumph - we...

    Manly in Crisis (a mega thread)

    I totally agree. We are seem to be a desirable club for players to re-sign and extend contracts with. We have two players who look likely to win a world cup. We made finals just last season. We won a Daly M just last year..... Our facilities have improved. Not exactly 'crisis' material. Dont...

    Manly in Crisis (a mega thread)

    Interested to understand how you figured that out. Is it based on avg points/season, positions on the ladder, or just lack of premierships? 1998 - 10th place 1999 - 9th place 2000 - 12th place 2001 - 10th place 2002 - 9th palce 2003 - 14th place (?) 2004 - 15th place (?) That feels like a bad...

    Ben Condon

    You confuse me. What do you want exactly? We have tied up a lot of cap in three players..... So - do you want us to break the salary cap or something? Or do you want us to pay 'overs' for a has been? Or - are you able to accept that a few 22/23 year olds as fringe first graders MIGHT be...

    Des's next job

    An interesting thought. I wonder if he would go to the Titans..... and if he does, will he break the bank to take some of our 'top talent. Its hard to know if he will be willing to be the same (or more) in order to tempt them away.... last time he did that - he tore apart a premiership winning...

    Des's next job

    I confess I did throw the commentary one in for a gag But having said that.... Our 'potential' new coaches/assistants are both coming from commentary.... and it seems to be where the money is. I thought De$ might go for the bucks!
