Hi all, I just wanted to mention a couple of things.
I get a great kick out of being able to jump on Silvertails each day and talk all things Manly. It is very well run, the look and feel is great and it's a lot of fun. It is really easy to fall into the trap of taking something like this for granted.
This site is not about making a fortune for Dan, for big $ to roll in, a vehicle for an early retirement - this is genuinely for the fans, pure and simple. There are very few products and services out there that are not about making big profits, but purely for the love of something. This site is purely for the love of Manly and for us to have a place to vent, laugh, get into arguments and celebrate the greatest game and greatest team on the planet.
So I hope, like I did this year for the first time, you recognise that these sites don't run themselves and don't come for free - a small contribution from each of us has a big impact on the continued running and improvement of this site. Plus you get to tip and have some fun, so if you can afford it, then don't hesitate - just do it.
