[Resurrected] what the f**k is wrong with our club

[TokyoEagle]

What will be said if we win next week ? Can't expect to win every year. Calm down people. Club needs to work through some issues and move into a new era with a new generation.

That was the most reasoned and well thought out post i have ever seen from you Mick, are you getting older these days?

---

Mick, I couldn't have said it better, or more eloquently, than you just did.

 

[NYEagle]

Forget my personal decisions for a second mate. Do you think this team that was paying out minor premiers 6 weeks ago isn't self destructing? Even for one second?

I'm with fLIP.

 

[Sillybus]

Its a definite implosion. Sad to see. Lock them in a room until they punch the **** out of eachother and then come back to being brothers in arms. Thats the manly we know and love and thats the manly that wins games. Not this pissy arm grabbing, no go forward, plain dumb in attack. Lovely last 15 minutes but shouldnt have been 40-zip down before it.

It wasn't injuries tonight. You guys couldn't get into the game psychologically because of the lopsided fan distribution. You had very little support. About. 90% were Souths fans. How on earth can you feel inspired to play your best when you're getting booed everytime to touch the ball. It was a deplorable NRL BLUNDER to allow the 2nd in the complete NO access to their fans yet 3rd place fans all live JUST AROUND THE CORNER. It was a final. Your team needed a lot of support but the NRL favoured Souths. Its a psychological game just as much as physical. I'm furious the NRL is batting for Souths AS USUAL.

 

[Denno]

Like 1/2 the players want to ride the MONEY wave

 

[Merdy33]

Disappointed in the result tonight for sure. But I'll be renewing my membership next payday regardless of what happens between now and then. I have every confidence that the club will sort out any problems over the next couple of seasons. And unlike a lot of you, I don't know precisely what the problems are apart from our injury toll and salary cap pressure.
What I do know is this. The club needs its members to survive, so now is not the time to bail out.

 

[Red Baron]

Almost 11 years later and we still haven’t recovered from this crisis. When it rains, it pours!

2025 doesn't have enough of Manly Terry Hill

 

[CRPSI eagle]

This is what I feel is wrong!
1. Turbos are cooked
2. Garrick not first grade centre
3. Sips not good enough consistently.
4. Alaio rubbish
5. Pasaka will always be soft
6. Crocker not good enough anymore
7.Waddell one of the worst signings
8. No opportunity for younger players

9. DCE can see this and hence he wants out, who wouldn’t.

10. Seibold is only interested in a job and not winning a premiership.

11. We need better.

 

[Ohgeez]

10. Seibold is only interested in a job and not winning a premiership.

What does this even mean? What has he done that makes you say this? Usually if you are a coach & want to keep your job the best way of doing that is by winning a comp

2025 doesn't have enough of Manly Terry Hill

I saw this clip come up at the end of your Terry Hill clip and I think that we could do with another Spud type player in our team now:

 

[Hibyemama]

very easy to answer your question.
when you have $1.2 million player sitting on the sideline every year for the majority of the season and for last 6-7 years, how the heck are you going to be TOP 4 SIDE? to win, you need your full salary cap or near for most of the 26 rounds.

17K sell outs, even if it is very home game every season, pales badly when compared to every other club except Sharks, Dragons & Wests.

Dogs will have a Good Friday crowd better than three Brookie sell outs.

Long term, Manly are stuffed unless somehow Brookie is grown to 30K. That seems very unlikely.

I still think the answer is Manly should have a marquee home game every season around April/May at Homebush, make it an event and carnival etc and get the joint full with every Manly fan. Many of the London rugby clubs were doing this.

You can’t judge against attendance at the dogs game over Easter because people get free entry to that with a ticket to the Easter show

Long way from London to Homebush. Though they are rugby, so probably flew business class.

That's not tue you do not get into the nrl with an easter show ticket not sure who told you that.

 

[The Royal Soup]

We are nothing but pathetic

what an inept disgrace of a display today after being flogged at home last week, No heart, no pride, no passion

We have a team full of duds that 90% of wouldn’t make park football

A captain that doesn’t want to be there and looks like he’s trying to not get injured before origin

A coach that has offered nothing and has not been an improvement on Barrett at all

we have done nothing since 2013

and don’t give me “but we were one game off a grand final”

we cannot and have not competed with top 4 side when it matters in 12 years

I hate this current team, hate this coach and hate the owners

we will not be even close to a premiership until we have a mass clean out and new owners , we are simply making up the numbers in the NRL

Those are the cold hard facts , and if that hurts your feelings then you don’t understand footy

 

[Waz13]

Soupie…..

I quite enjoyed the point about 90% of our team not making park football. That’s from your top draw.

A few points I agree with tho.

 

[Ashton Davis]

I’d actually say 2014. We were on track for the minor premiership that year until Matt Ballin got injured late in the season. Could have still been a chance at winning it all that year if we didn’t lose both Ballin and Buhrer when it mattered. Beat the Roosters 8-0 away from home early in the season and then again at home later on in the season when they were all over us.

2015 is when things really started getting farked up and yes, we haven’t looked close to winning a comp since then
