Time for your fav 2013 highlight. I was going to make this highlight and lowlight though after last night there won't be any need for that. If you would like to add a lowlight outside the GF please feel free - there are already plenty of posts on refs / Roosters / etc.
Highlight
===========================
Has to be the semi final against Souths.
To be written off during the week. Battered and bruised. The boys clearly hurting. Down 14-0 in quick time - the season started flashing before my eyes. Slowly we started pulling them back and in the second half when we started putting holes in their line you could sense something special was happening. Wolfy's dramatic try in the corner sealed it off and capped a massive comeback. What a game ... will never forget it as long as I live. Can you remember being prouder of the team than that moment.
Lowlight
===========================
I'm going to have to give this to the board. I'm a complete outsider so I can only speak on what comes out in the press (which is dangerous I know). We need a united board to support the playing group on the field. I understand that not all the board issues relate directly to the players though we need to get this infighting sorted out .... and stop letting the press air our dirty laundry to the public. AVO's, bans from the leagues club, etc etc ... it's embarrassing.
This article is one example .... there may be other reasons for changing venue I'm not aware of, though seriously ... if this is true .... lift your game :
"THE Sea Eagles have celebrated their eight grand final victories in style at Manly Leagues Club. Sunday night will be a different story if the team wins because long-time director Bob Reilly is banned from the premises.
Instead the players will return to the club for only 90 minutes to share the moment with fans. They will then move on to rival club Harbord Diggers for the main celebration."
