Watching the dogs tonight my mind drifted back to the memory of Manly at their best a few years ago and I started to clear my mind a bit as to what it is all about. I reckon there is way too much emphasis on coaches , Culture and a whole lot of other stuff. The players who get out there and actually win these games and comps are the big deal and need to be given almost all of the credit. Our recent golden spell was mainly about a gifted and determined group who ran out and did a great job. If Manlys premierships were largely due to Des I'm just not seeing it in this lot of Bulldogs.
