Silvertails Truth Session

[Budgie]

The players had a truth session (presumably) to explore where they were falling down as pro players. Why should they have to go through it on their own?
So here is the cold light of day, analytical truth session on where we might fall down as supporters.
I'll start.
1. I no longer like going to Brookie. I've become a little too accustomed to modern facilities and I just don't love bog ordinary anymore.
2. I don't put any Manly stickers on my car because I don't want some bogan idiot to take to it with a sledge hammer.
3.Except when he was playing and made the cement truck comment, I never really liked Bob Fulton.

Phew. That feels better!

 

[Under the Sticks]

I hate losing

 

[MuzztheEagle]

1. I've been questioning whether rugby league is still my favourite team sport
2. I'm actually glad I don't live in Sydney (and possibly even the Norther Beaches) anymore
3. I have almost no understanding of the (current) obstruction rules

 

[Woodsie]

My name is Woodsie ... and I am a Manlyoholic ......

... and I like stirring up numb-nutts and punchies more than it should ..

 

[The Who]

I still like going to Brookie, sitting on the Hill, taking off my shoes and feeling the grass between my toes but if the team puts up another performance like the one against Easts then I'll be also taking along a blindfold because watching is becoming too painful.

 

[pt73]

I believe that the NRL doesn't know what truth is and that's the truth.

 

[Pittwater Legend]

I like Brian Kelly and y'all gonna keep hearing about it

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Well the truth is, I’d rather be out fishing than watching a Manly game and that’s just plain sad!

In fact I’ll miss Saturday’s game in favour of half a day’s boat trip on the bay!!

I’ll record it, and either watch or delete.

 

[HappilyManly]

I love how Brookie Hill is still the same as it was in the 70s

I hate watching dumb play

I love Manly and how we irritate the media and the other Clubs 😛

@Budgewoi Eagle You can't handle the truth! we live in a world that has defensive lines ... and those lines have to be guarded by men with balls .... . Who's gonna do it? You? You, @globaleagle I have a greater responsibility on this forum than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Hastings and you curse DCE ..... . You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know, that Hasting's departure, while tragic, probably saved games .... . And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves games! You don't want the truth, because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on this forum. You need me on this forum. ...I use words like "numnutt", "Punchie", and "loyalty". I use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it! I would rather you just said "thank you", and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a ball, and play yourself .... . Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to!

I can't stand seeing this club mired in the current situation it is in, on and off the field (if you can even call Brookie a field). I want Manly to relocate to Hong Kong Stadium with player contract TPAs funded by the wealthy finance and banking sector here.

.. if that happens ... I hope you have a spare room ..

I forgot to mention.... banking and finance partners also sponsor free flights and accommodation to all member fans to all home games at the Stadium. You may just need to fund your own Wan Chai post-game entertainment costs. 😉

Hmmm... as an afterthought. Should we be surprised if Penn still took home games to Suncorp and Perth even with such an arrangement?

I use the "mark all forums as read" feature now more than at any other time?

 

[Wombat64]

I haven't worn undies since I had to wear a kilt when my brother got married to a Scottish girl in the mid 90's. Also, I am actually uglier than my picture.

 

[niccipops]

I love how Brookie still has a hill. It's still my favourite ground ever. I hate modern stadiums, plastic seating and giant concrete stairs and how they get all cold and shady. I would much rather just be sitting on a blanket on a piece of planet Earth at Brookie.
At suncorp they put away supporters practically on the roof and I don't need to eat subway or red rooster at the footy.
If geographically or financially possible I would still attend every Manly home game. I would never not turn up for my team because they are down.
I hate losing, hate Greenberg as CEO, hate our spot on the ladder and the situation our team is currently in. But they are my team and despite the odds they'll rise again.....eventually...... and I'll celebrate like a maniac.

 

[cherry_poppins]

I hate the owners
I hate everyone on the coaching staff
I hate that we're hoping Lachlan Croker will be good instead of having someone great
I hate that I hate football season, I'm looking forward to watching the hurricanes ffs
Club is full of rank amateurs and power plays, I'm sick of this ****

Okaayy then...
You’re under arrest. You have the right to remain silent...!!!

 

[40 years an eagle]

I would give one of my 3 weekly drop-by's to be able to be at brookie for the games

I can accept the losses we are having.

I can't accept the way our club is run, coached, promoted etc.

I hate what Greenturd has done and is doing to my game and my club.
