    Viking clap, Pittsburgh towels, Brookie ....???

    Beat me to it ! You're not called MOONdog for nothing. As long as we have a picture of the great CEO Todd drawn on one cheek and Beattie on the other.

    Daly M Snub = good outcome?

    Sorry Mark. I'm just jealous I couldn't be on the red carpet in a nice cocktail frock and stilletos.

    Daly M Snub = good outcome?

    To hell with the Dally Ms. It was originally started by the Sydney Daily Mirror in opposition to the official Rothmans Medal for best and fairest. It still galls me that the old Rothmans medal winners don't seem to be recognised by the league. I know Matt Orford won in 2008 but apart from that...

    Bring back ‘Up the mighty Sea Eagles’

    Way, way back on the old OEE forum I think Aaron Markie posted a link to an mp3 of the old Up the mighty Sea Eagles song. I wonder if anyone can find it.

    Bring back ‘Up the mighty Sea Eagles’

    I have always heard "up the mighty "Sea Eagles " not "Sea Gulls." It was just shortened to fit. Interestingly the song was probably done in the late 60s or early 70s. Eagle Rock came out in 1971 and is not much newer. The tune Waltzing Matilda is much older though.

    Bring back ‘Up the mighty Sea Eagles’

    I agree with Ella. Love the old song, a little cheesy of course. "Waltzing" almost sounds like some sort of rave party trick with MDMA and a tube of toothpaste. But it takes older timers like me back. The AFL do this much better than we do.

    ISC gone - Dynasty Sports in for 2020

    A nice supporters "rugby" style poly cotton jersey please. Hoops, badge, no sponsors.

    Marty sets it straight (again).

    As long as there's no backending. Literal or metaphorical.

    Manly Crowd

    I loved the spirit of the crowd last night. It's only the second game I was at this year but the noise and support was great. Sad end to the night but proud to be a Sea Eagle fan.

    Dessie blowing up deluxe

    Rusty's angling to be the new Orson Wells. He'll be advertising photocopiers next.

    Dessie blowing up deluxe

    Harry Highpants lives! I thought smoking was meant to keep the weight off. I'm Rusty's age and a little wide of girth but those ciggies must be chocolate.

    Interesting end of an era

    It could've almost worked. If we played out of Brookie and Gosford. If Norths had nothing to do with it. And if we had kept our jersey and colours and were called the Northern Sea Eagles it may have had a chance.

    Greenberg threatened Burgess with a $25k fine and a law suit

    Well, Not on his head anyway.

    Amateur hour indeed.

    Actually older folks here would remember the Thunder Bunger. That would work a treat.

    Amateur hour indeed.

    I think as part of the GF pre-match entertainment Joey should be able to nominate any current NRL CEO he so wishes to have a lit firework to be inserted into.

    Brookie vs Leichhardt

    Now with a handle like "Holden V8" I wouldn't think you were biased against old Dick Johnson. Coincidentally, I saw ole Dick at Eastern Creek last week looking rather mournful and hang dog. But your point is fair. A few things make this world go round; light, heat, political agendas and...

    Great idea: Northern Eagles???

    We've just inherited a beagle as a pet. I think it is a sign. Northern Eagles redux it is, then. Seriously Gosford Stadium is a great ground. A few games their could be okay.

    1987 - Tough, skillful Footy !!

    Well said, GE. The bloke she went with was a mad Eagles fan. I have dragged her to Brookie once or twice in 30 years. It was funny on the day, the event of a broken relationship overwhelmed my love of Manly on he day. But I have rewatched the match a few times since. If we play a GF at the SCG...

    1987 - Tough, skillful Footy !!

    My girlfriend dumped me the week before and she went to the GF with her new bloke from Narrabeen. I felt sick in the stomach all day because of it even though Manly won. I remember I was at a BBQ at a mate's house at Hurlstone Park that day. It was a stinking hot day, they had a new phone number...
