Breaching the cap well everyone knows my views on that.
Spending $900 dollars is your own personal choice but to add that factor on top of a salary cap breach is stretching it a little bit. Conversely imagine if we won against the "cheater scum" in 07 imagine how much more value you got out of your dollar thats the risk you take with spending so much as a spectator.
I become more convinced on a daily basis that TC is really Lotti
Jono said:I had an incling (sp?) that this was the case back in 08 or 09 when they bought Finch and then tried to go after Mason. Before they went for Finch I thought they might be just on the line, like we are. Then they go after 2 extra players and it became a joke. They weren't losing anyone while everyone else was. The writing was on the wall.

Cambo said:Are you f***en serious. I paid almost $900 to go and watch manly play in a gf in 2007 that wasn't a fair fight because those filthy thieving bastards were 900k over the cap. If it wasn't for those bastards we would have premierships no 7. Good enough reason to hate those Rex hunts if u ask me.Technical Coach said:I dont understand the deep seated hatred of Melbourne---i'm fine with the strong rilvary and there is no other game i look forward to more than watching Manly vs the Storm but this hatred is beyond ridiculous.
We all know their forward pack is not strong, we all know they will struggle during Origin and all the away games they have coming up and will either bottom out the 8 or just miss out. If the "big 3" stay injury free they will always be competitive even with an average squad combined with Bellamy and his trademark discipline and simple effective efficient structures of play you would be silly to write them off.
Be thankful and cherish the quality and improved standard of League Manly and Melbourne have delivered far beyond some of the games delivered at the moment.
As we have seen this year many teams have been found out busting the cap not of a deliberate nature(or the small amounts "suggest" not deliberate) but if weaker playing squads than our own in the past are struggling to stay under it also offers an insight to the other side.

MissKate said:TC is not Lotti, if you had ever met Lotti you would know this. Unless Lotti has had a brain transplant, the girl is a total muppet, she would never be able to put together sentences, responses etc such as the ones TC uses.
TC like it or not you will never find many Manly fans who have much good to say about bellamy.
To add to the reasons why would have to be, he stole the best coach award from Dessie on more than one occasion over the past few years. Dessie was far more deserving of it in 2007 & 2008. bellamy's cheating ways stuffed that up for Dessie.
