Good point. That really stood out to me watching the game when they crossed to the coaches box.

Just like the first two losses weren't the end of the world, we shouldn't get too carried away with one good win. Still a long way to go. I'm just glad the boys got a win - it'll do them all good, especially the younger guys who are new to the team. They've obviously been working hard and deserved the result.

I am still dirty on how Des left....but....I feel at that time his ego had him bigger than the club at that time which was a mistake....plus we All make some poor decisions in this world and he is in a much bigger spotlight, so makes him more accountable.....soured my Party after the GF victory over the Warriors 8 years ago let me add !!.
He went to Dogs where he instantly got them great success....but after falling short and having the Dog fans and media turn on him, was a humbling experience....in fact, Des looked like he didn't want to be there a long way before he was thrown off the pedestal.
It was what had him realise, he was always a Manly man at heart and this is the club that brings out the best in him and he brings out the best in this footy club....Des really looks comfortable at Manly and has always made fans feel confident, with his genuine competitive nature and fighting edge.
The thing I do love that Des brings to the table is Attitude and desire to succeed, more so than other coaches can and just on that, a bit over hearing about comparisons or bagging of other coaches, time to move forward and stay positive.
All 3 games have shown snippets of the Manly us fans have come to expect, this will only improve as the season progresses.
The 1 ingredient that has been most obvious is the desperation defence in the red zone has improved and if this continues to improve, have enough fire power to contend with most teams in this competition.

Dessie’s back... back again!
Look I’ll never forgive Des for what he took away in 2011 but I’m pleased he’s back as he truly understands the Manly spirit.
And the players know it.
And the players know it.
i guess we better get used to this post after every victory,
i hope we see a s#!tload of these through the year

Good on you Mark, I know there is a fair bit of hurt but you are Manly through and through

Personally I forgave Des long ago. He was doing what he thought was best for him at the time and I can't blame him for that. What happened, happened and we can't change it.
But forgiving doesn't mean forgetting. I'm just glad he's finally found his way back home.
