Some major news

[Mark from Brisbane]

I’m flying from Saigon to Nha Trang ( the beach section of the trip) today so hope this happens when I still have some free wifi as I wouldn’t want to have to wait until #nextweek to get the news.

Reading through all these posts ( when you are catching up after 2-3 days) is pretty funny.

I’d expect all this will be is #oldnews

Baz and Gorman.

The old saying “ loose lips sink ships” comes to mind with this, leak to the press 3 weeks ago, watch the theatrics on Silvertails ( belly laughing as you do) and then call a press conference with “ major news”.

Lol@seaeagles

Taking the piss out of fans for decades!

Just in support of the owners on this, this was a notice apparently to the press (only) and not a press release to the world stating something big is going to be announced. If it has been rumoured here beforehand, points to the posters that made us aware of it.

Maybe they were just a fly on the wall.

Member Exclusive - Manly key signings

The Manly Warringah Sea Eagles are proud to announce two major signings for our Club ahead of the 2018 NRL Season.

Lyall Gorman has today been officially named as Chief Executive Officer of the Sea Eagles.

Gorman, who joins our Club from the Cronulla Sharks, will bring a wealth of both business and sporting administration knowledge to the Sea Eagles with the vision of developing and enriching all elements of the organisation.

In another piece of great news for our Club, Head Coach Trent Barrett has extended his contract, taking him through in the role until the conclusion of the 2020 NRL season.

After taking over as Head Coach in 2016, Barrett has developed a strong culture within the squad along with attracting a quality group of promising players.

Nice start

‘One of my initial priorities will be building stronger communication between our Club and its many stakeholders – including Members, fans, partners and the broader community, and of course Council and State and Federal Government.’

No wonder we can't sign anyone - we blew the budget on our media room...

 

[robbiea]

Nothing F#$&ing major about last weeks old F#$&ing news.FMD.

You knew Gorman had signed and baz had extended weeks ago? Why didn't you say so?

Well, Zorba DID claim "our new CEO Lyal Gorman weeks ago", and it was spoken about ad nausium by members and fans, and there was probably 20-30 articles on Barrett resigning, which again, was discussed, and discussed a bit more by people (like snake who knew it had happened).

Where were you over the past few weeks mate? Hiding away?

So does that mean #nextweek commitments are fulfilled now ?? Now we can all get some sleep.

Hey @Mark from Brisbane, I enjoyed a week in Nha Trang a couple of years ago. Nice cheap cold beers at a pub called Booze Cruise. Watched a Manly game there too!

Yes it was to be expected, but still nice to have it confirmed. If Gorman is as good as they say, that's a positive. And Trent being given another 3 years to consolidate the rebuild is great. So I'll stay half glass full. I still think we have a decent signing or two up our sleeves once the WC is done and dusted and people return from holidays (you know what I'm sayin MFB).

No, it just reboots and starts again!
