    Funny stories and amusing anecdotes

    In 2007, my little sister and I went to Brookie for a pre-season fan day. The players were seated behind tables, signing autographs, scattered across the field. My sister loved Michael Monaghan. We went to his table for his signature. Ox was sitting alongside him. After getting Monaghan's...

    Is There Some Method To Our Signings?

    Yes and no, both at the same time.

    Is There Some Method To Our Signings?

    That's what got the ****er killed. Never hide behind a curtain when Hamlet walks into the room with a sword, ready to yell at his mum.

    That's a bloody ripper! You've made me laugh pretty damn hard!

    Is There Some Method To Our Signings?

    "Though this be madness, yet there is method in't." Polonius, in "Hamlet," Act 2, Scene 2, Line 186. For some reason I get annoyed when it isn't quoted as above, where "madness" comes before "method." I have no idea why. It just grates at me. Maybe it's because I'm an annoying ****er. Oh...

    Is There Some Method To Our Signings?

    I wonder whether there has been a sort of reaction, rather than action, to the approach of our signings. At the beginning of the year we got in Green, Brown, Tapau, Parcell, Myles, and one or two others, all forwards, with the exception of Dylan Walker, as there may have been a perceived...

    Manly's battle to keep Trbojevic brothers

    It's not an easy proposition to value Tom Trbojevic's contract. He has a tendency to get injured. But I suppose you just put the money down and pray he stays healthy. Were there any injury worries that contributed to the leting go of Gutherson?

    There is no way we could ever hope enough. I'm still clinging to the hope that we could stick Cliffy in there and we'd do fantastic. I'm also hoping that Dylan Walker doesn't come across a door that won't back down.

    Buhrer

    I did stress 'if.' It is wishful thinking. Much like wishing Buhrer, Tom Symonds, Vave, even Mateo, were still here. Not Watmough, though. That guy is ****.

    Geez, hasn't Myles been a disappointment. It seemed like we were paying him so that he could play for Queensland. If he could pull his head in and actually try, I think Dave Taylor may be a good signing. I cannot stress 'if' enough, though. He'd be a cheap buy. Plus, he looks exactly like...

    Buhrer

    I cannot believe it. It's almost as if the club has decided to try to reach rock bottom, and as quickly as possible. Am I missing something? Is it just me? Why don't we sign Hasson back and get Peter Sharp to fill in the amalgamated coach/CEO/talent scout/media manager/scoreboard...

    MESSAGE TO SCOTT PENN RE GREG BIRD

    It's where NRL players go to die. If you don't have the skill, then it doesn't matter how big or fast you are. By skill, I mean they haven't been given the best education in terms of the basics of the game. They look like a bunch of school boys out there. They are so soft in defence. They are...

    I was watching that game. It was such a low act that I've never forgotten about it.

    I'm sorry, I didn't realise how ill-informed I was. I will not fall into that stupidity again.

    Mundine.....again.

    Our emotions are subjectively aroused. The circumstances involved colour our behaviours. If a wife or husband accuses their partner of paedophilia out of spite, and the resulting outcome would mean that you are no longer allowed to see your child, I find it difficult to see a person remain cool...

    Mundine.....again.

    We all outrage over injustices. The perception of the injustice is subjective. We all need a target to bend our anger towards. Left, right, up, down, all people find offence at something. And every injustice requires a victim/victims. None of us has a claim to higher ground.

    Jorge Taufua May Not Be An Eagle In 2017

    Geez, Jorge has some mental lapses, but I cannot see how Williame should remain if he leaves. Or Lewis Brown. Jorge has been playing injured. Williame has been playing untalented. Lewis Brown has no idea what rugby league is. I'd rather Bozo play in our centres than Lewis Brown. All we are...

    MESSAGE TO SCOTT PENN RE GREG BIRD

    The bloke glassed his girlfriend and was set to spend 8 years in Long Bay. His respect for the law was recently enshrined when he whizzed on a cop car. Look, man, Nate Myles was a big enough mistake. Don't double it. Get younger players in. Though, if properly convinced, Bird may actually...
