    'Desperate situation': SCG Trust urges members not to walk away

    My memory too. Nine ran a promo that said the concert would " make Hot August Night seem like a sunday school picnic". Sure. What I remember is that Cadbury sponsored he show and the great man did live ads. Brissie Kid thanks for the link to Longfellow Serenade. Fancy writing a song where you...

    'Desperate situation': SCG Trust urges members not to walk away

    Does anyone remember Neil Diamond doing a concert at the old Sportsground in 1976? It was broadcast live on Channel Nine. Quite an event in those days.

    National Rugby League SHAME

    That's my favourite but these days it probably describes me fairly well.

    1983 Manly Season

    Your conscience can be soothed by knowing that she is 53 now and possibly a granny.

    More Journo Cheap Shots

    Oh and by the way, Kate. Dying your hair blond doesn't make you look any better looking.

    More Journo Cheap Shots

    It is not suggested that Stewart, Watmough or Kennedy were involved in any wrongdoing in connection with Melhem. What a nasty cheap shot that was. Dog act, cynical tawdry journalism.

    New NRL Ad

    To be sure, people aren't always consistent. And I'm so relieved you're not tarring anyone of us as snowflakes (mixed metaphor alert). However I doubt it is truly trying to be diverse. It is being diverse in the sense it wants to appeal to corporate backers who are fully on the"diversity"...

    New NRL Ad

    Also - I really have a problem with calling out the aboriginal angle only - when in truth, we have a lot of amazing cultures and empowerment stories in the game. They have basically said polynesian, kiwi, italian involvement etc isn't as important as the Aboriginal narrative. Not sure that is a...

    New NRL Ad

    If they need an iconic moment I'll suggest one. How about when Gifty gets the Clive Churchill award and tells David Gallop that he owes Brett an apology. That's a real moment of social justice. As for the rest; Macklmore (who?), a couple of women kissing, people draped in flags? Why not...

    MANLY DOMINANCE MIX 1972 - 2019 - The Film

    The beaver try always makes me smile. And seeing Russell Gartner accelerate to score that try in 78 also makes me smile. How quick was he?

    The Devolution of the Sloth

    Watching the Fibros/Silvertails doco it is amazing how bitter Gibbs and O'Grady were nearly 30 years later. The old (Nick Lowe, also John Lennon and Groucho Marx) adage "Time wounds all heels" comes to mind. What struck me was how bitter they and Roy Masters were and how nonchalant John Dorahy...

    Happily, Manly sign Turbo brothers!!!

    Yeah, Woking, Surrey. The place is called, I think, "the Sandpit" in Horsell Common. I was visiting Brooklands at Weybridge which is a fascinating place.

    Whats at the heart of the problem?

    It's hardly a jailing offence. Or goaling, No sorry gaoling. Bloody pedants.

    Manase Fainu, and Church dance, and a sharp object.

    It was an argument over a chocolate bar. Steve said "That's my milky way " and in an unguarded moment Fainu objected. Stay with me on this, I'm almost with you.

    2020 Draw out now!

    I was looking forward to a Roosters game at the SCG. Oh well, will have to wait till we get in the Grand Final.

    Happily, Manly sign Turbo brothers!!!

    No, not enough of a fanboy to accept Shannon Noll singing anything from the album. He was in the Aussie show, anyway.

    Happily, Manly sign Turbo brothers!!!

    I am such a fanboy when I was in the UK I visited Horsell Common where the Martian cylinder landed in the story.

    Happily, Manly sign Turbo brothers!!!

    Well actually it was Jeff Wayne. Or Justin Hayward. My pedantry is tying me in knots. It was originally HG Wells.

    Grand Final staying in Sydney

    I am an SCG member. As I spent my youth watching games on the old hill in the Brewongle and Sheridan Stands I dont think the SCG is that bad to watch a game. Certainly no worse than the higher sections of ANZ. My issue is the disgraceful bribery this seems to entail. The government are alredy...

    Grand Final staying in Sydney

    Why is it that the state govt has already started building one new stadium largely at the behest of the NRL that will mainly benefit the NRL. Plus agree to a major and costly refurb of ANZ also largely to benefit the NRL, now have to cough up millions to bribe the NRL to stay in Sydney for the...
