    Coach of the year

    Actually that's a brilliant point, and one I wasn't taking into consideration. As to be honest I was thinking Arthur or Des. But when you stack it up as to him being their coach (and for a few seasons), and Des inheriting a 2nd last place from a pretty boy who just wanted excuses as to why we...

    Brett Finch Again

    I've got a mate who moves very similar to the way Finchy does, sort of exaggerated movements. This guy is SUPER intelligent, and just has the ADHD type symptoms and almost tourettes type tics. I recognize a fair bit of that in the way Finchy is moving. Not necessarily a huge problem. Could...

    Is anyone else Excited ??

    I'm super excited. 15th last year and just a shadow of what 'Manly' teams are all about. 6th....and in with a chance! I think the Sharks forward pack is a bit of a myth. Gallen/Fifita etc these guys are 3 or 4 years past their best. I actually think this weekend will be our GF and we get over...

    NRL Team of the Decade - What a joke!

    Ok.....I'm about to lose my proverbial. Jamie Lyon I will state here is my favorite all-time player, so I'm as biased as. In a one-off game I will concede Inglis is the more damaging of the two. Inglis big game ability was excellent, Origins, GF's etc. He could and did tear teams apart. Plenty...

    Smith Caught - New Grub Act

    As usual the waters are muddied by idiots (did anyone see Finch the other night going off?) saying 'everyone wrestles'. YOU ARE MISSING THE POINT! No one is debating that other teams don't wrestle. Kent is debating players and teams deliberately going out to injure and harm players. But...

    Bring back the biff

    I actually agree with Tallis here, the niggle is just out of control, as people (like Mick Ennis when he played), know they can carry on without any fear of retribution whatsoever. Seeing wingers push front rowers knowing there is no comeback from them is just the stupidest look. HOWEVER...

    Player - Hall of Fame

    Can't comment on the players from the 70s as I didn't see them (man I wish I had been alive ....well I was but born in 76....during that Manly era) Whilst I think those 4 players are solid...... Ben Kennedy, this is a lock who had an enormous impact at every team he played for, Raiders (ok...

    Blake Atkins a Manly Fan?

    This shows the good work that so many within the Rugby League community do. All we hear about is the tools and the tossers, when the reality is 90 to 95% of the people involved have such huge hearts. Good work Manly, nothing can ever make up for this tragedy, but it sure does show the family...

    Thanks DCE you have wrecked origin for me

    A Qld loss will result in DCE copping it, and he will then play better for us to shove it up them. For me a NSW win is literally a win-win. And if NSW win it will be due in no small part to the Turbos.

    Turbos open to taking less money to stay at Manly

    I 100% agree with your analysis here. If you were on the minimum wage in the NRL....which is about $85k I think? And another club offers you an extra $100k. So say $185k or even $200k. To me that's a complete no-brainer you take that, as the extra is huge. But when you were on a good quality...

    Player Ratings - Round 15

    I think again pleasing for me is that we didn't play great, and yet still accounted for the Titans easily. I'm a big believer in the old adage of 'not playing well and still winning'. To me that's always a great sign. The worry is always when you play well, or very well....and you still lose...

    Blake Atkins a Manly Fan?

    @bob dylan that's brilliant and well done Sea Eagles. Nothing would ever make up for this tragedy, but little things like this make people realize there is good people in the world. And it may just bring a tiny bit of happiness.

    Blake Atkins a Manly Fan?

    I actually noticed it too. I live in Branxton and drive through Singleton to go to work. (don't know the family), but it's certainly rocked the area up here. Just an absolutely horrific tragedy.

    Trent Barrett

    I never got the 'he must get out because Manly is a sinking ship' rubbish the media were going on with. What does that show? To me it shows a quitter. And also shows someone not very smart. If it's a sinking ship....you have nothing to lose. You come last.....well that was expected. You come...

    Who replaces Cleary

    100% agree.

    [Resurrected] No Dogs 10 year deal for Latrell (and contract dramas)

    Will not argue with that in the slightest. And more importantly saw bugger all poor performances.

    [Resurrected] No Dogs 10 year deal for Latrell (and contract dramas)

    He's a funny one Latrell. I would definitely have picked him for NSW, and possibly my first player picked. But I would not want him at Manly. I know there are a lot of comparisons to Inglis, and to me they are warranted. On his day GI (and Latrell) was the most damaging centre in the game, for...

    Manly - Penrith 2014

    Whenever I want to tell my son what it means to be a champion I mention this game. Why?? Jamie Lyon has possibly the worst game in memory. Does 2 intercept passes (1 he basically handed to one of the Panthers) and is just playing terribly......does he hide? Does he sulk? He inspires his team...

    The weakness of the NRL

    It is the biggest weakness of the NRL, the complete lack of consistency across the clubs and the competition. You could name a 100 instances where 1 player is hung out to dry, and another is praised....or a blind eye is turned. That goes for administrators/to journalists. For example: 1. What...

    DCE 4-6 weeks

    100% agree. This is the difference in Hasler and Barrett. (and not just Barrett, but coaches without that hard edge mentality). Barrett sees this an excuse to fail. Hasler sees this as an excuse to stick it up peoples clackers. No DCE doesn't mean we give up, it means we go harder. Tackle...
