Mounties. Manly Leagues wanted to merge with the Diggers, c.2005-07, but it didn’t come off. The Diggers had their own financial challenges and within a few years they were swallowed up by the Mounties Group.
Some love it , a lot hate it , but I guess they all have to do it as part of their playing contract.
Some are born for it , most aren’t.
I'm sure they all get media training nowadays but at the end of the day they're all just human. Some of them will relish having a camera shoved in their face but I suspect the vast majority actively despise the idea. And most of them are young blokes with very little life experience to call on

Earning the Right: Part Two
Part 2 of this exclusive documentary sees Tom Trbojevic working with renowned reconditioning specialist Bill Knowles in Philadelphia. Video produced by Alfred Naupoto (Manly Media).www.seaeagles.com.au
That was awesome to watch and I agree, it helps that Tom's smart and quickly learns. I know he's being sponsored, and it's in his (and Manly's) best interest to improve his training methods and lessen being injury-prone. Nonetheless that video showed his full dedication and proved he's so highly focussed, to the extent that I even felt a tad emotional. Let's hope it all pays off and he, the sponsors, Manly and us are rewarded.
Some awesome content there. A really nice film put together.
When he says it, Josh Aloiai's name almost sounds like 'Josh '(h)ello Yay'. I'll remember that now.
The player or the tasty avocado-based dip? If food is talking to you, Woodsie, it might be time to seek professional help.
Also, how many different ways can you spell Aloiai's name, seen about 5 variations so far..lol.
If i was the club I would have kept the cameras rolling on Tommy for the whole year...now that is member exclusive content I would love
It appears the link isn't working
Mark - the club’s small media (of 3) team appreciates and thanks you for the feedback
Happy for you to pass that on.
Given the footage of the woman at the ice hockey in the Turbo video, the T boys should have also been part of the - "how to pronounce my name" video.
