Mundine.....again.
On the topic of Mundine, calling on the Aboriginal players to bring the inequalities suffered by the indigenous to light by not standing for the national anthem may not be the best idea. To have all the players do it would be a better sign of unity against inequality. I think Mundine is a...- The Quirkster

Buhrer
Yep. It's a common misconception that "Animal Farm" was a commentary on the Russian Revolution. That's BS. He wrote it to point out the "equality" of the salary cap. What a crock.- The Quirkster

Buhrer
"If you want a vision of our future, imagine the boot of the clowns in charge stamping on the Sea Eagle Army's face - forever." A direct quote from George Orwell's "1984". Yep, he loved Manly. Wore the maroon and white jersey everywhere, shouting, "Go you mighty Sea Eagles!". He was buried in...- The Quirkster

NRL Merchandise: A Shameful Confession
Last year they had a game for the figures to play. They had the footies, the tackling pads, the benches, the first aid kit, and more. This year all of the heads look nearly the same as each other. Bloody Kevin Proctor's hair makes it hard to put him in his spot. His head is always falling out...- The Quirkster

NRL Merchandise: A Shameful Confession
The NRL flogs their merchandise everywhere. You can buy so much team-themed stuff. All of it seems unnecessary and superfluous. Okay, okay, I indulged. Only a bit. Alright, I'll confess. I bought the Nate Myles teddy bear sort of thing. I bought the Nate Myles inflatable doll (stupid thing...- The Quirkster

Taufua primed for Manly Second row
On a good day, yes. On a bad day he struggles with the concept that the ball may have come down. He'll stare at the sky for hours, waiting for that ball to land. Meanwhile, the game is over, Brookie is only populated with the ground staff cleaning up all the mess left behind, including trying...- The Quirkster

Funny stories and amusing anecdotes
At Beaver's last game at Brookie, my sister and I were looking for autographs. We saw Beaver with a bloke who we found out was his brother, baby in his arms. When I found out he was Beaver's brother, I asked him if he played. He did in a weekend warrior local competition. Being Beaver's...- The Quirkster

Taufua primed for Manly Second row
Jorge has problems under the bomb, no question. I sit there at Brookie before the game starts and we're doing warm-ups, and I see this ball go up in the air, at which point Jorge loses all spatial awareness and just starts running in any direction. At this point, Jorge is usually in the crowd...- The Quirkster

Joe Kelly resigns
Goodbye, Joe Kelly. We hardly knew thee, and we are all the better for it. Look, I'm not sure about how Kelly performed in the true sense of being an administrator, but I can only go from the little I have read about him in the past. As such, in my opinion, on your bike, Kelly. Taint and...- The Quirkster

Luke Walsh Is A Menace
Nope, I just got Walshed. Apparently it's not uncommon. Many people have reported the same symptoms while watching Luke Walsh. It's not as bad as Hasson Syndrome, but it still causes great distress.- The Quirkster

Luke Walsh Is A Menace
I've been watching the 2010 Quarter Finals between the Raiders and Penrith. Well, I had been. Apparently I lost consciousness due to his utter underwhelming performance, and my head slammed into the table. I now have half a sandwich stuck to my face and can't remember my name. If anyone...- The Quirkster

Barrett and Fulton
My problem with Barrett has always been about his decisions as regards how he picked the team every week. I was confused when Api was hooker, Wright was 5/8 and Parcell was on the bench. I was confused about Lewis Brown being in the centres. I'm wondering why Mateo wasn't given more of a...- The Quirkster

[Resurrected] Lewis Brown - 'The Utility Belt'
Hey, let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. Lewis Brown has some competition. Chris White. Wait, no, Chad Randall. I mean, Scott Fulton. Wow. This thread has brought up some repressed anxieties from the past. You should all chip in to help me pay a psychiatrist to treat the PTSD that I...- The Quirkster

Will you become a member, or renew your membership next season?
Yep, I will be, as will my eldest sister (one of the two first female rugby league referees ever) and my Dad. There is no such thing as too much Manly stuff. Apart from how much I love our team, another reason is that I look sexy as hell with a lanyard on. Yes, you can use the lanyard to...- The Quirkster

He played badly. Hayne Cam would've given me a better look at how rubbish he was. Sadly, I had to rely on a normal camera. Shabby.- The Quirkster

Disillusioned
Where the hell did Hayne Cam go? How can I enjoy a game of footy if there is no devoted focus to the Golden Boy? News Corp, you've taken away almost everything from me. The NRL and Foxtel have just crushed me under their heel. My tears of sorrow are making my phone wet, so I must finish up...- The Quirkster

It's about time...
I could be a knobhead and say that what is important and what is not, is a subjective thing. Therefore, both of you are both whinging and not whinging at the same time. But only a knobhead would do that and that's not me. Absolutely no knobhead action by me at all. None. But there are other...- The Quirkster

What's going on?
You're right, mate. He's not the flashiest of players. He fills the utility role better. Maybe we can get Tooves playing again. That guy is a hard *******.- The Quirkster
