The honest thread !!
I hate the fact that the NRL and AFL feel the need to claim they are better than each other. Completely different sports, different appeal, and built on different foundations. I understand that they complete for viewers - but in ruth, the ven diagram of supporters that watch BOTH codes...- Harmless27

The honest thread !!
Honest opinion: I think our club (note I said CLUB, not just TEAM) are in a far better position at the end of this year than we have been since the end of the Toovey era. We have a decisive CEO, a decisive coach, and the best captain in the comp. We are soring out the juniors, we have played to...- Harmless27

Saab the next NRL boxer.
I'm with you - I was trying to think of a Saab/Volvo 'they're boxy but they're good' style pun, but i couldn't get my brain to kick in to gear- Harmless27

Manly 2023 - Pass or Fail?
Don't worry - you won't drive me away! It is a conceded pass for me. Everyone else is pointing out the flaws, so I won't dwell on them. My personal positives: DCE (as always - what a legend) Garrick (geez he is worth every dollar) Speed (Saab and Koula) I am really invested in these two. They...- Harmless27

Can't have it both ways!
@Ryan thank you for classifying my opinions as 'dribble'. I will look past the insult and address the comments; we are about to have a $800k player (who signed for 'less' for 4 years) dropped for the second time in 4 months. I entirely understand that there are sometimes personal things that...- Harmless27

Can't have it both ways!
The Schuster conundrum (his exceptional potential, his glimpses of immortality, his lack of effort, and his ultimate disappointment - SO FAR) is something we should all keep in the back of our minds next time an amazing/gun junior leaves the club. I think about the Fainu's and the response...- Harmless27

Manly Salary Cap "issues"
I can't let that pass! Are you serious? He earns EVERY dollar we pay him - and more. He is EXACTLY the type of person that should be representing Manly. He plays 90 minutes, hes a ripping bloke, he has a great public image, he is one of the best tacklers in the league, and we win far more games...- Harmless27

Game Day: Roosters v Manly [Round 23, 2023]
DCE field goal in Golden point for me tonight. I’d love to be wildly wrong and we win by 30+ But I can’t see it. Hope Ben T gets through well Lodge to have a stormer.- Harmless27

Pre-Game Roosters v Manly [Round 23, 2023]
Do you think we might do something 'creative with our winger problem......? Hear me out - but if we think our winger options are bare/busted, then surely we need to prioritise defeinsive stability and reliability vs. anything creative or attacking? COULD we push Parker out from centre to wing...- Harmless27

NRL's 17th Team - The (Redcliffe) dolphins
the league needs them to be successful in order to pave the way for future expansion. I have no problem with them as a club - and I firmly believe there is enough talent to go around!- Harmless27

Assistant Coach after Flanno
So - where are all the #flannoout crew? I thought everyone was convinced he was going to do us over and give the saints all of our secrets or some crap? We have beaten his old club and his new club in the last two weeks.... and I, for one, am glad we didn't give him his marching orders. I am...- Harmless27

Draw for rest of season
Geez - looks like all the pessimists from Woodsie's poll have all decided to contribute to this thread! Where is the optimistic view!!!! We've won two on the trot. We have one of the best half backs of the 21st century in career best (almost) form. We've got Jake back and FIT! Saab and Koula...- Harmless27

$1million bet on fake footy
Wet start to the day down here - but looks like a perfect evening for footy. I think carlton needed it to be pouring rain to be any chance. I don't mind the blues - but the Pies are on a rampant charge. Pies to win by 50+ for me.- Harmless27

Pre-Game Dragons v Manly [Round 22, 2023]
I care not about the 'gong curse. The reality is - IF we are to squeak in to make finals, or do any damage this year, then these are the games we need to get 2 points from. The boys have ALL the motivation in the world (300 games and 100 games) and we still have a shot at the 8. I am feeling...- Harmless27

How to cheer for d***heads
Very well written piece, and an excellent thread all round (not just for the original post, but also for the respect and thought gone in to the responses thus far). I have often butted heads with people on here about this topic - mainly because I am in the vast minority in my basic views: I...- Harmless27

$1million bet on fake footy
FWIW I think he's got decent odds there. Collingwood are on fire, and Carlton are known to take the gas under pressure. They have to win every game for the rest of the year to make the 8 As for the clientele of Collingwood - I live in Clifton Hill (previously known as North Collingwood)...- Harmless27

Where are we heading as a club?
WOW - what a 24 - 48 hours. I think we can safely say we are headed FORWARD as a club. Firm, decisive decision making, no leaks, lots of action. Bravo MWSE.- Harmless27

Latu Fainu
I vaguely recall that too I also recall that at the time of signing, it was suggested that we were throwing money at the Fainu family to show that we cared, and that if/when the criminal got off his charges, he should stay with manly because of the way we have supported the whole family.
