In our case, Manly bashing is just too much fun for journos. Remember though, it was all DCE's fault back when he backflipped on the Titans.
The tigers, on the other hand, have an exciting young coach/former legend player, in Benji. They've bought premiership winning players to the club, and can potentially become a feel good comeback story by making the finals this year. In this case it's easier to blame the 19 year old. I feel for that kid.
The media are very slimy.
As for our form, many thing are contributing IMO. We're in a slump physically with injuries and whether it's coincidence or not, the players seem distracted since the DCE announcement. I think were up against it for the next few weeks but am hopeful we can return to form before it's too late.
Go Manly!
