    Trash T-Rex the Terrible

    Don’t bother calling me hilarious just because I don’t agree with your opinion. Thanks. Have a look at a couple of the Roosters' tries. There was one player in particular who gave away a penalty that lead to their 1st, and then makes a pathetic arm grab attempt on Carney. Again a try...

    Trash T-Rex the Terrible

    Well believe it, I am serious. Its easy to waffle on about him walking or standing around. I can pick times when every player is doing this, but its easy to jump on the bandwagon eh?

    Trash T-Rex the Terrible

    I'm sick of this. Yep, the dropped ball late in the game was poor. But FFS: - the try by Aubusson was off a miracle ball by Pearce. If you watch the play, Williams had to stay out, otherwise its two on one, and he'll get blamed for not staying on his man. Foran (who had a great game) could be...

    News: Delmege to Gallop: We want our money back

    I'm not stiring here, I'm interested. So why didn't the club hold out for a higher bid from the Penns? Surely it was in a dream position, two wealthy potential buyers bidding for it. Or did the Penns not want to make another offer?

    Player Ratings

    I'm not normally a Chock basher. I really rate him and on his day he's up there with the best. I guess the bar for him is set a little higher than for others, and we notice his mistakes more than his contributions.

    Player Ratings

    I have my views on why we lost tonight, including too many mistakes (completion rate was woeful), inconsistent rule interpretations and new players. I also don't think we should underestimate the impact of losing Lyon.  However I'll have a go at some ratings: B Stewy - 7. Defensively good, and...

    News: Manly easing a boy's sorrow

    Good story. Some people criticize it when players are called "heroes". Yep, they're not heroes in the same vein as those who go to war, or risk their lives for others. But to that kid, and his dad, they have done a great thing, and made their lives just a little bit better. At least for a short...

    Monaghans Future, would you have him at Manly?

    Stupid, degrading act, but apparently only simulated. So I ask myself, who did he hurt, rape, bash or rip off? No-one. Outside of his family, who has he hurt? Yes, he's embarassed us as League supporters, and brought the game into disrepute, so he deserves punishment. But he should be allowed...

    Josh Perry

    When his mind is on the job, he's very good. A real metre eater who can also hit in defence. He put Ben Ross on a stretcher during his first game for us in 2008, and Ben hasn't played much (if at all) since. He was very good for us in 2008, but has only showed glimpses of that form since. He...

    A Manly premiership winning captain can't sign for Parra!

    He was selected for Origin at least once, maybe twice, and injury ruled him out.

    Is Des as good as Wayne Bennett?

    Hmm, if its a problem that Des rules with an iron fist, then maybe we should be more like the Cowboys where it appears that certain players rule the roost. We could then mimic their success. Any time a player speaks of Hasler its always positive, and along the lines of of "his bark is worse...

    Is Des as good as Wayne Bennett?

    I think Bennett has earned to right to be described as one of the best ever. However I also think that people forget that Des rebuilt the football side of the club from scratch. We were broke and had no players. So in addition to trying to have the team perform each week, he had major...

    Silvertails congratulations and tribute to Brett Stewart

    When I think how stressed we sometimes get over little things such as money, work etc, I can only imagine how you, Jaime and your family felt each day over the past 18 months. Almost makes me ill. The fact that you all held it together speaks volumes for your strength, courage and tenacity. You...

    Matai suspension

    I'm breaking a golden rule here by responding to this clown. People like him get their kicks from others responding to their crap. A bit like lighting the fuse and seeing what happens. And no, not everyone's opinion deserves respect. Respect is earned, and he hasn't done that. If everyone...

    Lyon's roar at refs' dud calls

    I agree. Most errors by players are committed at pace, based on split-second decisions, and with an opposition deliberately trying to force those errors. Compare that to the two howlers by Harrigan and Hampstead. Made with the benefit of multiple replays, time to consider and without someone...

    Realistically what are our chances next week and for the finals?

    I understand exactly how you feel. We are a team running on 3 cylinders now. However, if we give up and just want this year to be over, aren't we guilty of the same thing that we criticise our team for? That is giving up big leads and dropping our bundle when the going gets tough? Thats not...

    Tigers home semi venue?

    I think us 5 v. the Tigers at the SFS would be a great result for us, for a number of reasons: - we have pretty much dominated them this year - should have beaten them in r1, and accounted for them easily the second time around. Neither of these games were at Brooky. - the SFS holds no fears...

    Tony williams bashers.

    I see your point, but what two tries did he let in last night?
