The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)
Schuster has moved up to the South's reserves. Recent performances suggest the kid is starting to show his wares. Could be on the bench in coming weeks. Seems Bennett may have been what Schuster needed.- Bearfax

What’s really killing our 2025 season?
I agree in part that there are other factors but Siebold has a better stable of players than Barrett and Hasler had, not that I'm defending their efforts. This side should be very close to a top 4 side given the talent out there.and Turbo on the field.- Bearfax

I suspect DCE will be gone before the end of June. Paper talk I know but I've just got a feeling Manly will let him go even though SC said they have not yet come to terms, if DCEs performance on the field doesn't improve..Seibold is going to have to weigh up whether to risk a less talented but...- Bearfax

OK SER8 I checked and you're right about payment. But its an extra commitment on behalf of players in the game. What if he had given the news at the end of the season like many have done? What if he had told us all why he was leaving and was putting down the club? What if he had left supposedly...- Bearfax

Not if its something that has been developing over a period of time, Rocky. We all have a limit. And the fact he said nothing besmirching about it does show professionalism. Money has nothing to do with it. You speak of money but he has already met his obligations, or will have by the end of the...- Bearfax

I am convinced something has happened behind the scenes. Someone like DCE who seems so committed and consistent in his game, has developed extra skills successfully, has held this team together through some dreadful years of poor coaching, poor recruiting, a pedestrian backline in the past...- Bearfax

Hey I've already remarked about the question of his play and even suggested the captaincy be taken off him and be given a few weeks to prove he doesn't deserve a stint in the Reggies. Thing is I separate the issue of what he says from how he performs. I've said it again and again what he says...- Bearfax

Read my post again LC. I am referring to the emotional response to this whole episode. Emotionally charged issues can become infectious and lead a life of their own, losing sight of what the original issue was about. And what was the original issue? DCE got on TV and said he was leaving Manly...- Bearfax

Still get the sense there is a general emotional reaction to DCE leaving and that distorts how you see the issue. Firstly saying DCE is not an elite half is quite contrary to his selection as one of the top half backs in the game over the past decade. Secondly suggesting Cronk was superior to...- Bearfax

Now though I support DCE's right to move to another club and state his intentions well ahead of that move, this does now mean I support his performance drop in recent weeks. For whatever reason his form is way down and the question must be asked, is he carrying an injury, or just not as...- Bearfax

Sure Mark. I get your point. But is it such a major issue? He was going to leave anyway and from my perspective that's a much greater issue than what he may say. Does it really matter if he didn't say what you felt he should have. We do that all the time on this site. Actions are what is...- Bearfax

I'm not attacking you Mark. You present as one of the most logical and balanced members on this site and I like your comments. In this matter I'm just surprised at how emotive your responses are. Quite atypical to your usual responses. Not criticising your right to feel angry about DCE's...- Bearfax

So what Mark? Are you going to dismiss all the effort he has shown in holding this team together just because he hurt our feelings. Really? What difference does it really make. He's made a decision full stop. He's given Manly a year to find a replacement full stop. He wants a decent pay out full...- Bearfax

I'm sorry but I just don't see the problem here. DCE has given his all for this club. He's near the end of his career. He wants a decent payout because once he's retired, the golden goose has flown. He's not going to get that kind of money again. This is business and he has his future to...- Bearfax

Space!
The rich guys though are waiting for a peak at Psyche, an asteroid believed to have been initially part of a much larger body which seems to have disintegrated and left the core of that body naked. That core is chock full of metals to dream of, far more than any other asteroid yet spotted. Yum...- Bearfax

Best Coaches Of All Time
My opinion. Any coach that can keep his team in the semis 21 years straight (though noting the loss of 2 premierships in 2007 and 2009 and loss of minor premiership 2008 through salary issues), has to be one hell of a coach. Of course the heaviest grand final winners as coach belong to Ken...- Bearfax
