    Morwood

    Interesting in the Manly Daily article on Morwood that he is quoted as saying he hasn't done as well as expected lately because he has been "resting on his laurels." What laurels?????

    Deadwood starting at prop

    Fluffy. Maybe disagree on your last year comparison, but definately no argument on his workload versus Rose. Mind you Rose's work rate is shocking. Rose just isn't fit enough. He arrived in the pre season and was quoted as sayong he'd been indulging. Hard to belive when realistically Manly...

    Stweart to play?

    He's listed to play, but there is no guarantee he will. Fairly normal for Des (or any coach) to list a player who is getting over injuries. They are obviously hoping he will recover in time for the game. Hopefull he'll pass his fitness test. Not "old news" I would have thought. Pretty...

    Deadwood starting at prop

    Hi byso. Asked that question of those who know and they said "yes". Deceptively strong and quick and capable of breaking tackles.

    Deadwood starting at prop

    Morwood hasn't impressed in Premier League at all this year. In fact he doesn't seem to be playing as well as last year. One of the best forwards, on a regular basis in Premiers, has been Mailangi Styles. He'll probably get dropped from the bench which is a shame as he deserves an...

    Anyone going to Leichhardt?

    I'll be there. My son tried to buy tickets for the grandstand today but they were sold out. Presume there will be a large crowd. Not a bad field to watch the game but facilites and access and parking are back to the dark ages.

    Mata ole mate

    I was surprised at the number of Manly fans at the game. There were a lot scattered throughout the crowd, not just in the Manly section. And they were very vocal. Had no problems with the Dog supporters. Having said that, I would never go to a Bullodgs home game at night.

    Who's going to Telstra for the Dogs game

    Who's going to Telstra for the Dogs game I'm not going. If we win I'd get killed. If we lose I'd probably just get beaten up. Don't like either option.

    Interesting Profile on Beaver's Partner

    Interesting Profile on Beaver's Partner It's a good series, well worth a read. So far they have done Ben Kennedy's wife, Des's wife and now Beaver's partner. Gives an interesting and different perspective on the players (and coach). Ot the normal footy stuff. I belive there are more to...

    Pat Wilson resigns

    Joe Cross announced it today. Manly hope to have a new CEO by July. Gone back to Rugby, as predicted.

    centre spot...

    Na you're right, probably not. Sometimes good but not consistent.

    I wish we would just Shut Up

    I thought that the referee over-refereed the game but it was the same for both sides. In fact I thought we got some lucky calls. Dunley deserved the sin bin. Dumb play.

    Dunley must go.

    What's the story with Des and Dunley. The guy was shocking today, yet instead of being taken off he is rewarded with even more game time. Monaghan was looking gtreat at hooker when he was on. Great 40/20, good defence and was providing a smooth link with our outside backs. On comes...

    unconfirmed reports

    Can't see anything on Groom on the MSE site. Maybe it's been deleted. Groom is on a scholarship with Manly this year so surely he wouldn't leave. Let's hope not a he is a star of the future. I thought he was out of the Jersey Flegg side because of injury.

    centre spot...

    None of the outside backs in Premier League have shown the consistency to indicate they are genuine first grade contenders. Meaney was ok last week, but does not perform to that standard regularly. Quite frankly we are in big trouble with our depth in the centres. If you drop Matai we...

    Premier League

    Premier League was an extraordinary game. After 40 minutes Manly were 38 nil. They were playing absolutely superbly and looked like runnning up a cricket score. Then suddenly there defence completely collapsed. Newtown (the Roosters) scores 28 unapposed easy points in 25 minutes. A try...

    birds eye view.

    Hicks and Bell in the centres. Burns at 5/8. Monaghan at hooker. Robertson and Stephenson on the wings. King and Dunley in Premiers. Cuthbertson on the bench. Now wer're looking dangerous, in my opinion.

    Matabele Ratings vs Cowgirls

    I was amazed at King's inbability to move laterally in defence. Players simply run a half a metre to his left or right and he is left grasping. Really quite embarassing.

    The Coach's Comment

    The Coach's Comment Des chose to make most of the personnel changes. With Matai out he could have simply played Stephenson in the centres and brought up Robinson. Instead we had our No 6 playing No 9, and on the bench. Our No 12 playing No 4. Our No 14 playing No 6. Our No 15 playing...
