    After Choc made a very good run he was brought down and got up to run again, around the half-way. Ref called held, and he stopped. Penalty against Choc. He starts to blow up. 1. I was very impressed with Monas quickly coming over and putting his fingers over Choc's mouth to get him to let...

    Too bad they're banned in the game. Could finally discover where some players disappear to.

    International Rugby League - Death or Growth?

    Last year's two Kiwi wins were an aberration. But look at the resulting interest in this years' test!!! At last the sniff of a contest. That's the most effective way to make RL grow. Make international RL competitive first. The ARL needs to find ways to genuinely strengthen the Kiwis and...

    Parra suffering

    Almost as much fun as when the Bulldogs lose. "The Eels were booed off the park by the crowd of 10,146 at half-time but by full-time there were not enough fans left to berate their players as they left the field." SMH Oh, joy.

    Jumping one step ahead of the opposition is a key to winning formulae. What jumps in technology or techniques have you seen change Rugby League success? More importantly, what can you see coming or would you like to Manly experiment with? Some past ones: * Full-time professionalism of...

    What Crusher needs to tell Lyon

    Even if you take Manly (& 12 other clubs & Union & UK) out of the equation for a minute. St George needs him more than Parra, so would pay more. Looks like they'll be heavily cashed up with Barrett gone & Gasnier likely to go. Lyon & his manager would be idiots to miss the bidding frenzy if...

    Test Wrap

    Giving Kennedy the shot at goal was a disgusting insult that showed no respect for the Kiwis. Keep it up. May need just a tad bit of coaching from Arnold before he becomes the No 2 goal-kicker for Manly.

    Who Will play 5/8 for NSW?

    According to today's Manly Daily, they're seriously considering Gower as 5/8th with Orford as half, subject to performances from now.

    Benji confirmed playing

    Benji Marshall confirmed he's playing in an interview after the game. Sounded like he was caught off guard and just let the cat out of the bag. Surprise, Surprise. Not. But Gould pointed out how he was favouring his right shoulder. So the attack should be directed just to the left of...

    New Realism at Manly

    Hi Barks, Is there another way of handling perceived "personal attacks with gutless name calling" than using "personal attacks with gutless name calling"? If you don't want "to read a gutless post calling certain players all the names under the sun" and find it "freakin' boring", could...

    Google ranking of Silvertails

    Thanks Dan. You're already second behind MSE on "Manly NRL". So I'm not sure whether you need to do anything on adding "NRL". If you want people to find the site through searches including the words "Rugby League", sounds likely that adding these words into some news headings might...

    Going out on top

    Don't know if it's money or mood that's leading him to retire. But he's probably got 2 years left in him after this one, if he wanted. I'm praying.

    Google ranking of Silvertails

    Well done, Daniel 2nd on "Manly NRL" & "Silvertails" and first on "alternateeagles" (& on second page for "Manly forum") What about "Manly League" and "Manly Rugby League". Currently not ranking. Can anything be done?

    What Crusher needs to tell Lyon

    What I don't get is Lyon opening up a possible return to Parra while Smith was still there. Knew he was going? Trying to up his value by getting Parra to make a bid? Wanting to waste Parra's time out of spite? Wanting Parra fans to want him before he turns them down? Maybe just doing an...

    What Crusher needs to tell Lyon

    Good point. An alternative is to say nothing and to sit back and enjoy the bloodspill. Lyon has a lot of enemies in Parra & little trust from die-hard supporters. At the first sign of trouble or poor form, the knives would be out, finely sharpened. Hardly the best environment for...

    What Crusher needs to tell Lyon

    Lyon is cited as wanting to play again with players like Hindmarsh and Cayliss. The feeling is NOT mutual. Of course now knowing Parra is actively chasing him it would be a career limiting move for either of them to be too forthright now. Maybe Lyon doesn't know what they said in the...
