    First Billy, and now Mini: the karate kids

    In last nights Bulldogs/Roosters game, Minicello went up to catch a bomb and made it frightfully obvious after he caught the ball to extend a leg in the oppositions direction. To me, it almost seemed he was doing it on purpose to show the karate kick is an intended weapon to keep defenders...

    I feel sorry for MWTS

    For them to make all that effort and to have to put up with that useless, frightful, and shocking display... and from the start. I can handle a loss. But that was a sheer capitulation from... it's as if they had money on Melbourne and they were throwing the game. My hat is off to you travelling...

    Donkeys: Have a side ever talked themselves up so much?

    Article after article I read, Brisbane players and coach are talking themselves up all the time. There is the usual 'Manly is playing some good footy' rhetoric, but Brisbane are going into this game with their fat lady already to sing. Either, they know something that the rest of us don't...

    Does anyone ever shake the ref's hand?

    One thing I have never noticed is that no player from a winning (or losing) side ever shake the ref's hand at the end of the game. Now, I know immediately I will cop the abuse of some on here and be told they are not fit to breathe the same air as the rest of us, but in the name of...

    Assistance in finding Manly players to visit a dying person

    I'm not sure if any of you can point me in the right direction. A best mate of many years, who also happens to be a die-hard Manly fan, is about to lose his mum, who also is a die-hard Manly fan. She is 68 and will die in about a month from Liver cancer. She found out a month ago. Very sudden...

    What bright spark invented...

    ... all the black tape that is all over the players legs these days? Does it really do any difference? What is its purpose? And it looks quite tacky when its half peeling off. I'm thinking it will quickly go out of fashion like when athletes from all over the world wore those things on their...

    What bays is everyone sitting in at Parra Stadium?

    I plan to go out there with my son and I'm curious to know where the main horde of Manly supporters will be seated.

    Parra not wanting sponsors cash; how this effects me

    For the last three years I have sat at Parra Stadium in the sponsors box which is right behind the players tunnel - perfect seats. My mate (who is a Manly fan) always gets me seats there because his boss that owns them rarely turns up even though he pays the yearly minor sponsorship price of...

    Manly v Dogs: who else has thought...

    who else has thought that we may face each other off in the 2012 GF? I know there are other teams like Melbourne and Saints which are looking impressive at given times, but wouldn't it be destiny if this was the main game at the end of the year... and again, no one predicted it.:rolleyes:

    Anyone just watch Griff Rhys Jones greatest cities in the world?

    It was on the ABC and it was all about Sydney. Griff ventured up to Brookvale oval for a Monday night game and did a little piece on the Eagle Angels. It was great seeing Brooky and the Sea Eagle players (and the crowd) being the spotlight to the rest of the world. The doco was done during Kevin...

    How pathetic is the rugby semi-final...

    ... enough said! :@ Give me a poor game of league any day - far less frustrating. I was so frustrated and bothered I said to my son, "go ahead turn on junior master chef, that is far better viewing." And I hate master chef. :@

    I'm still seeing Manly jerseys around...

    (on people) in places that are definitely no where near Manly. I spotted a woman in Lithgow Maccas wearing a 87 jersey on Wednesday; and a bloke proudly wearing his 2011 Penn Health strip today in Blacktown Westpoint. I've still got my flag on my car and took it as far as Condobolin and...

    A reason Des won't want to coach Manly again ;^)

    He hates getting the container of gatorade thrown all over him after winning the GF. :D

    Junior Palau

    ANyone know much about him or rate him in anyway? My mechanic was asking me as Junior is dating his daughter. And would you believe while I was waiting for my car to be serviced at this independent mechanic in Castle Hill, so was the manager of Smokin' Joe and Tim Robinson. The manager didn't...

    This weather in Sydney right now...

    ... aren't you glad the GF is not today. Possibly overcast and mild next Sunday; I guess too early to predict. But where I live in Castle Hill, and Homebush is not that far away, the weather is atrocious.

    How far under the radar are we right now?

    There is barely any coverage of the Sea Eagles anywhere. If this was Wests or St.George or any other Sydney team, I reckon there would have been a tonne of stuff written up - positive or negative. This Lockyer show has been the distraction the team needs, but for a fan... I just want to read...

    They've celebrated their GF

    Did you see the Bronco's celebrations after the game? THey were pumped as if they had won the grand final. They were pumped and focused before the game against the Dragons as if it was a grand final. They carried their wounded leader off on their shoulders as if celebrating a grand final victory...

    Just when you think...

    ... how are we going to fit a returning (from injury or suspension)player back into our awesome squad... someone elses takes their turn and gets injured or suspended, and it has been like this all year. Players have been out for whatever reason and their place has been filled comfortably - if...

    Funny how a super win can leave you feeling empty

    Loved the ferociousness of the win, however, I'm feeling empty and melancholic after it; the send offs and the possible suspensions; the retaliators and the possible suspensions; the injuries and the weakening of the team; even the sloppy play at times didn't make for a super spectacle... but...

    Rooster Tats

    I only saw the second half of the game on tv; the main thing that stood out to me was how many of the rooster players seem more concerned with how many tattoos they have, instead of their football. I tried to find any on the Manly boys and it was a job to find one arm blemished. I know the Manly...
